[YouTube Drop] Bad meat, or poison?

Poison was the rumor that never died in Tudor England. In this
episode, we look at the deaths that Tudor contemporaries believed
were “too convenient” to be natural: the Scottish commissioners
who fell ill during Mary, Queen of Scots’ marriage negotiations
in France, the sudden collapse of Ferdinando Stanley, and the
suspicions surrounding Darnley and Amy Robsart. Whether these
cases were illness, accident, or something darker, the fear of
poison shaped Tudor politics in surprising ways.
