Royal History's Biggest Fibs with Lucy Worsley

Available on

BBC Two

History is filled with famous stories that have been told and retold so many times that few stop to question: is that really what happened? In this series, Lucy Worsley steps up and discovers how many royal stories, cemented in history and accepted as fact, have in fact been manipulated and shaped by those who write history. From recontextualising the English Reformation by discussing how Henry the VIII was a staunch Catholic, to examining documents that reveal the true story of the Spanish Armada, Lucy is here to question and uncover the biggest fibs of royal history.
