Folge vom 18.01.2022139. The Princes in the Tower Part 2Who killed the Princes in the Tower? The inspiration behind Shakespeare's Richard III, their murder remains one of the greatest mysteries in English history. In the second of two episodes, all eyes turn to Richard III, prime suspect in the disappearance of Edward IV's sons. Tom and Dominic discuss whether Richard likely did kill his nephews, potential other suspects, and whether it was a matter of survival for him to do so. Plus, the greatest question of our time: was Richard III more Raul Castro, Robert Kennedy, or James Callaghan?

Folge vom 17.01.2022138. The Princes in the Tower Part 1Who killed the Princes in the Tower? The inspiration behind Shakespeare's Richard III, their murder is one of the greatest mysteries in English history. In the first of two episodes, we start with the princes' father, Edward IV. Tom and Dominic discuss the remarkable parallels between Edward IV and his grandson, Henry VIII, and why Edward's brother, Duke of Clarence, is certainly not a friend of the show. All this, plus Tom's case for why he does a better prince impression than Brian Blessed.
