In episode six of 5 Minute Murder, we step back to 12th-century England to uncover the shocking murder of Thomas Becket, Archbishop of Canterbury. Once a trusted confidant of King Henry II, Becket’s growing defiance of royal authority led to his brutal assassination inside Canterbury Cathedral in 1170. This act of violence, spurred by a royal outburst, would send shockwaves through Europe and turn Becket into a martyr. Join us as we examine the events leading up to this infamous murder and the profound impact it had on the relationship between Church and State.
