Was the infamous disappearance of the Princes in the Tower a murder, or an attempt to discredit an overthrown king? And why was a bloody murder carried out in a Scottish royal palace?

Professor Suzannah Lipscomb looks into four sex scandals that dragged the reputations of certain historical royals through the gutter. She explores how rumours of sexual indiscretions were used to target a formidable medieval queen and still follow her centuries on. Plus, Suzannah seeks to find out if 13-year-old King James VI of Scotland was groomed by his 37-year-old uncle, Esme Stewart.
