What is the truth about the death of the controversial Duke of Kent in a plane crash during World War Two? Was George V murdered by his doctor? What actually became of the daughter of the last Tsar of Russia and how did Prince Albert Victor become mixed up in the Jack the Ripper killings? Do we have evidence that names the killer of the serial adulterer the Earl of Errol in Kenya’s notorious Happy Valley? And why is the death of Ludwig of Bavaria in the 1850s still shrouded in mystery to this very day.

This hard-hitting upcoming series investigates all of these extraordinary stories, sifting through the evidence and the facts as it seeks to reach final conclusions.

Their iconic images, captured in famous portraits and paintings, are part of the very fabric of national culture. In carefully-arranged poses, the Kings and Queens of history still look down upon us today - powerful symbols of bygone ages.
Which is all well and good, but actually, they were just human beings, with the same ticks and foibles, bad habits and weaknesses, as the rest of us. So we’ve once again asked Tracy Borman to investigate – this time she looks long and hard at the very colourful private lives of Charles II, Queen Victoria, Louis IV, George III and the Prince Regent and Henry VIII.
