What Happened to the Princes in the Tower?
Friday 4 October
Castle Hill Baptist Church
7.30pm
Vanished from the Tower of London, never to be seen again ... or were they?
Our three experts pick through the clues of this most enduring of mysteries: the Princes in the Tower. Traditionally considered victims of their ruthless uncle, Richard III … but there are other suspects. And what if there was no murder? Did both Princes survive their uncle’s reign, and even that of their brother-in-law, Henry VII?
Hear compelling evidence that gives weight to all these alternative scenarios: a rounded and complete assessment of the most fascinating mystery in history.
Join the debate … acclaimed historians Nathen Amin, Matthew Lewis and Nicola Tallis will share their own theories before opening the investigation to the audience: what are your views? Question our panel of experts!
