Princes in the Tower: A Damning Discovery

Tracey and Jason say' 'Archeologists discovered the body of Richard 3rd".

No Archeologists were involved. Phillipa Langley made this discovery-and raised the funding to exhume the body. It shows you cannot trust known historians-they have their own agendas. Tracey Borman does not want the bones in Westminster Abbey tested- as she'd 'rather not know'. How can any historian make a statement like this? Just because someone presents supposed 'facts' on Television does not mean you should accept their word. This very programme is an example of 'fake news' that infects our sources of information today. Please do your own research.

Save yourself some time and read the Ladybird book of English Kings. There's more good history in those few pages than in this hour and a half.

The inclusion of Jason Watkins, an actor, in the basis that he does the voiceover for something else might have made sense had he demonstrated even the slightest understanding of Shakespeare, but he did not. So there's no mention at all of Tudor propaganda and he appears not to have a clue what the 'a horse, a horse' speech is about.

For the rest, I'm not sure I needed to be told there was no social media in the fifteenth century - yet I was, more than once.

Dismal. Just dismal.
