Secrets of the Royal Palaces: 4x2

Private Lives

Stories of palace private life – and the moments the royals wish were private – beginning with the royal family’s race to be by Elizabeth II’s side in her final moments at Balmoral. The programme forensically examines that day and uncovers how the deep family rift between Prince Harry and the rest potentially caused a tragic delay. Kate Williams shines a light on some of the most remarkable private tales from palace history, including the messy end of William the Conqueror’s life when he was buried by a band of hapless monks.
