British Historical Figures: Bloody Mary Tudor

Gunpowder, Treason and Plot: Mary Queen of Scots BBC Production

This is an interesting and well-acted production, but would seem to be historically inaccurate. Historical accounts state that the father of James VI was Mary's then-husband Stuart, Lord Darnley and not Lord Bothwell, as the movie implies. She later married Bothwell, and there are indications that both of them may have been involved in the plot to murder Darnley. The marriage between Darnley and Mary was not a happy one.

The real history is quite interesting. I'm not certain why the producers of the movie saw the need to take artistic liberties.

KHEL 666 Real Kool History: The Reconstruction of Richard III

I've always been fascinated by this sort of thing. If I could go back in time, I'd get the training necessary to become a forensic pathologist and forensic artist. 

Imagine, this amazing historical figure being buried under a parking lot. Wonder what he thinks of that!
Great information in this one, but the robotic voice is a bit off-putting.
For those of you who really want to go in depth, here is Jacob Abbott's full audio book. Dive in, history buffs!
