Imagine you have two brothers. One of them is King of England, the other two want to be. What would YOU do?

Well how about this. You have the brother who is King killed in a convenient hunting accident, then lock the other one up for the rest of his life.

Farfetched? Then listen on as Charlie Higson continues his personal history of the extraordinary story of the Monarchs of England, assisted by this week's proper historian, Lord Charles Spencer.

And remember, Willie Willie Harry Stee, the book of the podcast, is out now, so you can read about Henry as well as listen!
