Postcards From Paradise - Ringo Starr
3:10 Feature interview - Earl Charles Spencer
As British Monarchs go, the reign of Charles I is not cloaked in glory. Found guilty of high treason and executed, his reign brought about the bloodiest conflict in British history. Much has been written about Charles I, but not the men who signed his death warrant. The ninth Earl Charles Spencer, historian, brother of Diana, Princess of Wales, and distant relative of Charles I reveals the stories of the men, motivated by revenge and religious fervor, who sent the King to his death. His book is called Killers of the King: The Men Who Dared to Execute Charles I
