Frankie Boyle's Farewell to the Monarchy

The comedian takes a look back at the darker side of the royal family's 1000-year history, and wonders how generations of land-grabbing, child-murdering, wife-beheading, slave-trading, misogyny, violence and empire-building have shaped our royal family today.
