I know not everyone enjoys the recent royal stories on the channel. But history is history, whether it’s a day old or a thousand years old.
To make things easier, I won’t send the daily royal updates out to subscribers. This should help you select from the nearly 700 videos already available and choose what you want to watch.
And speaking of choices, this Sunday brings the final episode in my four-part series on execution. This one pulls everything together. Instead of focusing on the block, it looks at what happened next: the chain reaction after a royal execution, the purges, the families wiped out, and the regimes that crushed anyone tied to the fallen.
Enjoy your weekend.

Part 3 of our Execution series takes us beyond the moment the axe falls.
In this episode, we delve into the aftermath of death.
Bodies weren’t just removed and forgotten. They were used. Displayed. Turned into a warning.
The state used the dead as a final message: power belongs to those still holding the axe.
They Didn’t Fear Death, They Feared What Came After
Watch Part 3 tonight here on History Roadshow from 7 pm.

⚔️ Execution: A New History Roadshow Series ⚔️
History often remembers the crowns, the courts, and the glory, but behind every throne lay a shadow: the scaffold. Execution is a new series that pulls back the curtain on the fatal cost of power, exploring why people were condemned, how they were killed, and what messages their deaths carried into history.
We begin with the haunting stories of Lady Jane Grey, Anne Boleyn and Charles I. Future episodes will uncover the brutality of justice, the spectacle of methods, the symbolism of bodies displayed, the ripple effects on families, and the enduring legacy executions left behind.
You can watch episode one now on Patreon.

And from this coming Sunday, 26 October, here on YouTube from 7 pm
Enjoy your weekend. Jon 🤴🏻
