History

Can you name a Chancellor of the Exchequer who was murdered?

A less commonly asked quiz question than naming a murdered British Prime Minister, though both have the same answer – for Spencer Perceval was both PM and Chancellor at the time of his murder.

His death was the subject of a recent 15-minute documentary which you can still watch via the iPlayer until 3:09pm on 21 August.

(Why 3:09pm? Someone knows, I’m sure. But not me.)

Watch it here.
