Killer Kings

Starting on Monday 16th June 2025, Killer Kings is a ground-breaking blend of true crime and historical documentary, which will vigorously present the case against six formidable Kings who have left an indelible mark on the world. From Ivan the Terrible to Henry VIII, the series will reveal the haunting mitigating factors and introduce conflicting and fresh evidence, ultimately leading to potentially new verdicts concerning these enigmatic men.

As part of the series, Claire was interviewed for the episode on King John, presenting a range of historical evidence to ascertain whether or not he deserves his reputation as one of England’s worst kings.
