Episode description as stored
<p>On the night of Saturday the 9th of March, 1566, a pregnant Mary Queen of Scots was having a dinner party.</p>
<p>It was a night that ended in the brutal murder of one of her closest friends, David Rizzio, led by her husband, Lord Darnley.</p>
<p>How did this happen? How did Mary handle this traumatic moment? And did Mary have a Scottish or French accent?!</p>
<p>Joining Anthony once more as special guest co-host is author and historian Gareth Russell, to take us back to this disturbing night.</p>
