Royal Murder Mysteries
Season 1 Episode 6 — The Mad King Of Bavaria
King Ludwig of Bavaria was gay, wildly eccentric and built fairy tale castles that today rate as Germany's leading tourist attractions. He was not a conventional man or king. His behaviour saw him declared insane and deposed from the throne, and in June 1886, his body was found in a lake south of Munich. Originally ruled as suicide, recent evidence has come to light that suggests murder. That evidence is compelling enough to have led to louder and louder calls for the King's body to be exhumed to finally discover the truth.
