ROYAL AUTOPSY
New Season | Sundays from 28 April at 21:45
Royal Autopsy returns with Professor Alice Roberts investigating the causes of death of four of Britain’s most famous monarchs, King George IV, Queen Mary I, King Henry IV and Queen Anne.
Alice’s investigations bring together a unique blend of historical and medical expertise to provide new insight and conclusions that challenge the received wisdom of how and why these rulers died.
At the heart of each investigation is a detailed ‘as real’ autopsy led by Forensic Pathologist Dr Brett Lockyer. Together they search for clues on the monarch’s body, which uses a combination of prosthetic bodies, actors, and ethically sourced animal organs alongside detailed historical research to reach a conclusion on how they died.
In each episode, Alice opens a new cold case investigation to examine the life and death of our most celebrated monarchs. Based on the evidence, Prof Alice Roberts and Dr Brett Lockyer deliver their findings to reveal what killed these famous royals. (4x60)
