‘Secrets of the Dead’ reveals a portrait of Shakespeare, possibly the third to ever exist

Wednesday, November 12 at 9 p.m.

There are only two accepted representations of William Shakespeare that are considered “official,” but could a portrait that has been hanging over a family’s mantelpiece for the last 50 years be the third? British window washer Steven Wadlow, whose father bought the portrait in the 1960s, is on the hunt to prove the painting is indeed genuine. If so, it could be worth as much as $200 million.

Immerse yourself in the best of British literature from a showcase of gripping mysteries by Agatha Christie to elegantly crafted heroines by Jane Austen. Enjoy the stories continuing to intrigue readers and viewers alike well into the 21st century.
