Are Princes Andrew and Harry the most troublesome ‘spares’ in royal history?
You might think so — but buckle up, because history is littered with spares who partied harder, plotted darker and pushed the Crown to breaking point.
Welcome to Queens, Kings & Dastardly Things, where royal biographers Robert Hardman and Professor Kate Williams take you inside the palace doors to meet the heirs… and the headaches. Every monarchy needs a backup but what happens when the backup goes rogue? From regency playboys who bankrupt the nation, to sword-swinging dukes suspected of murder, to princesses who perfected the art of rebellion, we reveal the royals who made even today’s headlines look tame.
Join us for the royal stories the courtiers hoped you’d never hear.
