Queens, Kings, and Dastardly Things looks at the Royal Family - the secrets, the palace intrigues, and the Crown's bloodiest moments.

Hosted by Royal Historians Robert Hardman and Professor Kate Williams, this series mixes factual storytelling with debate - and a splash of fun ... like its parlour game to discover the most monstrous royal of all time!
