Philippa Langley MBE is a historian, writer and award-winning film producer. In this talk she will discuss the findings of 'The Missing Princes Project', a centuries old historical mystery which investigates the fate of the deposed King Edward V of England and his younger brother Prince Richard of Shrewsbury, Duke of York, heirs to the throne of King Edward IV of England, treating the story of the Princes in the Tower as a 500-year-old cold case. Leaving no stone unturned, Langley and her team uncovers evidence that the princes survived Richard III's reign and points to another suspect for their eventual deaths.
