One of the things I found interesting was the she was introduced as as Henry VIII's grandmother - only later did they get around to mentioning that she was mother to the princes in the tower. Henry VIII looms larger in the public mind, apparently ... also, that the disappearance is still just "the princes in tower". All this time later and we still won't/can't commit to saying the murder of her sons.
