EDIT:
Hello friends,
I’ve seen a couple of comments querying my mention of Charles II’s executioner, Jack Ketch. Having seen these, I am now realising how poorly I worded that - especially considering the fact that his father did have an executioner in the most brutal sense 😬 Jack Ketch worked for Charles II to dispatch his enemies and that is what I was referring to by calling him “Charles II’s”. I will endeavour to be much clearer in the future 🤦🏻♀️
…
It's time for another macabre history topic as we hurtle towards Halloween. Today it's one family who made execution their stock in trade... the Pierrepoints.
I hope you enjoy this video and find it interesting!
