In each episode, she investigates a single event using historical and contemporary evidence and a range of experts to reframe the past. <em>Lucy Worsley Investigates<\/em> is slated to premiere on PBS on May 15.<\/p>\n<p>The first episode of <em>Lucy Worsley Investigates<\/em>, \u201cPrinces in the Tower,\u201d will explore the supposed murder of the two young princes in the Tower of London in 1483, including the rumored culprit, their uncle King Richard III. In the second episode, \u201cMadness of King George,\u201d Worsley takes a closer look at what can be learned about how attitudes toward mental health were affected by Britain having a so-called \u201cmad\u201d monarch, examining royal papers and exploring the king\u2019s tragic personal trauma: the death of two of his young children.<\/p>\n<p><em>Lucy Worsley Investigates<\/em> is a four-part series for BBC Two and PBS, produced by BBC Studios\u2019 The Documentary Unit. It will stream simultaneously with the broadcast and be available on all station-branded PBS platforms, including PBS.org and the PBS Video app. Two additional episodes will premiere in the fall.<\/p>\n<p>Worsley said: \u201cI&#8217;m thrilled to be revisiting some of the big-hitting stories from history that just keep sucking us in. And like everyone who works at the Tower of London, I just can&#8217;t wait to share the next twist in the tale of what we think we know about the \u2018murder\u2019 of the Bloody Tower&#8217;s \u2018Little Princes.\u2019 I really love the fact that this isn&#8217;t just a series about the past. It&#8217;s also about what the past means today: an investigation of our own ideas about childhood, feminism, pandemics and mental health.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lucy Worsley Investigates, a new documentary series fronted by the British historian, is set to bow on PBS in May.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1033,"featured_media":17931,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[6134,146],"class_list":["post-17930","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-lucy-worsley-investigates","tag-pbs","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Lucy Worsley Investigates to Premiere on PBS - TVREAL<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/lucy-worsley-investigates-to-premiere-on-pbs\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Lucy Worsley Investigates to Premiere on PBS - TVREAL\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Lucy Worsley Investigates, a new documentary series fronted by the British historian, is set to bow on PBS in May.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/lucy-worsley-investigates-to-premiere-on-pbs\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVREAL\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2022-04-13T14:30:13+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2022-04-13T16:45:07+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2017\/07\/Lucy-Worsley-Investigates-PBS-0422.png\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"540\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"303\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/png\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Chelsea Regan\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Chelsea Regan\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/lucy-worsley-investigates-to-premiere-on-pbs\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/lucy-worsley-investigates-to-premiere-on-pbs\/\",\"name\":\"Lucy Worsley Investigates to Premiere on PBS - TVREAL\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2022-04-13T14:30:13+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2022-04-13T16:45:07+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#\/schema\/person\/2a2c6d8fb3c7c8b4220b8877ecffb79a\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/lucy-worsley-investigates-to-premiere-on-pbs\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/lucy-worsley-investigates-to-premiere-on-pbs\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/lucy-worsley-investigates-to-premiere-on-pbs\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Lucy Worsley Investigates to Premiere on PBS\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/\",\"name\":\"TVREAL\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#\/schema\/person\/2a2c6d8fb3c7c8b4220b8877ecffb79a\",\"name\":\"Chelsea Regan\",\"description\":\"Chelsea Regan is the managing editor of World Screen.
