(How The Tudors Lost Their Heads: Margaret Pole: The Last Plantagenet) Historie Historians Dan Snow and Professor Suzannah Lipscomb investigate the lives and deaths of some of Tudor Englands most fascinating figures, including Anne Boleyn, Mary, Queen of Scots, and Perkin Warbeck, who claimed to be one of the famed Princes in the Tower. Dan and Suzie seek clues in spectacular castles and palaces across Britain and Europe, gain rare access to archives, and reveal new evidence that helps expose the truth behind the executions. Were these iconic figures architects of their own downfall or casualties of ruthless political power plays? The series combines cinematic storytelling with cutting-edge research as we reassess some of the Tudor eras most notorious, controversial and misunderstood individuals. If you want to understand the Tudors, get to know who they executed - and why. Margaret Pole was born into Englands ruling dynasty but, while a child, she lost her wealth and status when the Tudors came to power. Resilient and smart, she fought her way back to become one of the countrys most powerful people. She was trusted by Henry VIII to be his daughter Marys governess, but was also willing to defy the king. Suzannah Lipscomb and Dan Snow trace Margarets incredible story and investigate her downfall, exploring castles across England and heading to Europe on the trail of her son, Reginald. A protégé of Henry VIII, he turned against the king over the break with Catholic Rome. Reginalds ‘betrayal led to an international manhunt that endangered his family and eventually led to Margarets conviction as a traitor. Killed at the age of 67, her execution is remembered as one of the most shocking of Tudor times. MN 12 (United Kingdom)
