In the aftermath of the bloody Russian revolution, the Romanovs went from being a glittering royal family, to vulnerable everyday citizens who were soon murdered. In the wake of their deaths, the that one family member survived, began to gain traction. How do the claims of Princess Anastasia's survival begin? Why did people want her to survive? And why do humans need to believe in myths? Joining Anthony and Maddy today is author and historian Leonid Trofimov. This episode was edited by Tim Arstall. It was produced by Stuart Beckwith.
