A History of Royal Scandals
Witchcraft
Season 2 Episode 3
Professor Suzannah Lipscomb looks into the long and complex connection between British royalty and witchcraft. She explores how Elizabeth I tried to predict the future and asked alchemists to find her the 'real' philosopher's stone. Suzannah also reveals how two British queens were accused of witchcraft, in part because one was believed to be related to a mermaid
