Drama-documentary exploring the events of 1483, when Richard, the Duke of Gloucester, put 12-year-old Edward V and younger brother Richard Duke of York into the Tower of London. Weeks later, he pronounced himself king and the boys were never seen again. For more than 500 years it has been thought by some that the monarch killed his own nephews to take the throne, while others believe no crime took place - and that the youngsters lived anonymously into old age. Hearing from experts including Janina Ramirez, David Starkey and Philippa Gregory, the programme tests the competing theories.
