Who Was the Real King Macbeth?

This documentary separates the real King Macbeth of Scotland from the murderous villain of Shakespeare's play. Presenter Tony Robinson uncovers the true history behind the legend, revealing a ruler whose story is stranger and more compelling than the fiction. The film digs into medieval Scotland, its politics and the myths that reshaped a king's reputation. Engaging and myth-busting, it restores a maligned monarch to history.
