The name Amy Robsart may not resonate through the ages, but the unfortunate woman was the victim in a scandal and a mystery that stains the reign of Queen Elizabeth I to this day. Robsart was the wife of Robert Dudley, the favourite and alleged lover of the Queen and the man she is said to have told she would marry - if only he was free to do so. What a shame for them both then that Amy was a robust 28 year old - until she was found at the foot of the stairs at Cumnor Place, her home in Oxfordshire in 1560. Her death caused a scandal - with the finger of blame pointed firmly at Dudley. What is the truth about Amy's tragic death?
