Ever wondered about the stories hidden behind the walls of Buckingham Palace? This Saturday, Channel 5 offers a peek behind the curtain with “Secrets of Buckingham Palace,” presented by the ever-charming Alexander Armstrong.
Joined by JJ Chalmers and Raksha Dave, Armstrong explores the palace’s rich history, from its construction in the late 18th century through the reign of Queen Elizabeth II. Prepare to be surprised as the program unearths some of the lesser-known – and sometimes scandalous – tales from within the royal residence.

It’s a story of royalty, resilience, and the secrets that iconic buildings hold. Catch “Secrets of Buckingham Palace” on Channel 5 this Saturday, March 8th at 6:20 PM.
