Unsolved Histories with Lucy Worsley

Follow Lucy Worsley reinvestigates four dramatic chapters in British history: the 16th century witch trials, the Black Death, the madness of King George III and the princes in the tower - and shines a modern lens on the past. In each episode Lucy follows the evidence and brings a contemporary perspective to each mystery, exploring how changing attitudes to gender politics, class inequality, mental health and children can challenge our perceptions of the past and provide new answers to each mystery.
