The Royals: A History of Scandals

Sex

Award-winning historian and presenter, Professor Suzannah Lipscomb, investigates 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. She also seeks to find out if 13-year-old King James VI of Scotland was groomed by his 37-year-old uncle, Esme Stewart.
