Making History

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

Sue Cook presents the programme that examines listeners' historical queries, exploring avenues of research and uncovering mysteries. This week a listener from the New Forest leads the team back 900 years to the death of William Rufus, who was struck by an arrow white hunting near Brockenhurst, and asks whether this was a tragic accident or cold-blooded murder. Sue Cook also discovers why the Mormons have provided an invaluable tool for family historians and how troops took on their officers in the battle of Blackpool.
