Trivia
Perkin Walter, pretender to the throne who claimed to be one of the sons of Edward IV, who disappeared in the tower, did desert his men during the aborted 1494 invasion without disembarking his ship. He unsuccessfully tried to invade three more times and was captured and hanged in 1497.

Quotes
Bernard de Vignolles: [to David] I killed Rodrigo, but you know on a project of this sort, there is always one tongue more that you can silence - unless you're prepared to silence it yourself.
