Did the Princes in the Tower Really Die? Historians Investigate

The Princes in the Tower are among history’s most enduring mysteries. With the widely accepted narrative being that their uncle, Richard III, ordered their deaths - but historian Matt Lewis (@MattLewisHistory) believes there is another possibility. With no record of their deaths existing from Richard III’s reign, and the story of their murder only truly forms under Henry Tudor, whose fragile claim made their disappearance politically useful, the question remains: did one, or perhaps both, survive? Join historians Dan Snow and Professor Suzannah Lipscomb as they re-examine the evidence and explore the stories behind some of history’s most contested deaths.
