Okay, here is the last documentary that I will post for today. Lucky you. 🙂
Here is the documentary entitled, Mountbatten: Death of a Royal.
Louis Mountbatten was not only Prince Phillip’s uncle; he was an Admiral of the Fleet, a statesman, Viceroy of the British Indian Empire, Governor-General of the Independent India and a First Sea Lord. But in the summer of 1979, on a sailing holiday in the Republic of Ireland, he became the victim of an IRA assassination.
This documentary explores the events surrounding the bomb explosion, which took the life of not just Mountbatten, but his 14-year-old grandson Nicholas Knatchbull, a 15-year-old cabin boy and 83-year-old Baroness Brabourne.
Here are two episodes from the documentary (U.S. version), Monarchy, hosted by Dr. David Starkey entitled, The First Kings and Medieval Monarchs. Click the links below and enjoy. 🙂
