In Paris, the Tuileries Palace has been stormed, and the royal family imprisoned. Meanwhile, tensions are rising between the main political factions of the Revolution, the Girondins and the Montagnard, led by the icy Maximilien Robespierre. The streets of Paris teem with armed young men - the Federes and the Sans-Culottes - responsible for the brutal slaughtering of the Swiss Guard earlier that year. They have arrested and imprisoned thousands of people. It is into this progressively febrile atmosphere of paranoia and fear that terrible news arrives: the Prussians, hungry for vengeance, have taken the fortress of Verdin. Rumours swirl of treason and betrayal from deep within Paris itself, and a new, chilling idea is raised to wash the city of counter revolutionaries once and for all: cleanse the prisons. So it is that on the 2nd of September, a group of Prisoners being escorted from one prison to another is stopped, and methodically hacked to death. The survivors face an impromptu tribunal before receiving the same treatment. Over the next few days, all prisoners across Paris are likewise judged, and many similarly damned and mutilated. A tide of bloodshed is rising, which will soon flood the streets of Paris, taking thousands of lives with it. Who will survive the massacre? Join Dominic and Tom for the next series of the French Revolution, as they pick up this epic story - one of the most resounding and complex historical events of all time - with arguably the most horrific episode of the whole revolution: the September massacres… Join this channel to get access to perks:    / @restishistorypod   00:00 – The Blood-Soaked Streets of Paris 00:24 – A Speech to Save France 01:07 – Churchill or Danton? 02:34 – A War Going Horribly Wrong 06:06 – Paris is Paranoid 09:40 – Treason at the Front Lines 12:03 – Don’t Look in the Cellar… 16:21 – A Death Sentence in Disguise 19:20 – The First Bloodshed Begins 20:55 – Silence Before the Slaughter 25:09 – When Justice Turns to Horror 30:33 – The Most Famous Victim 37:40 – A Head on a Pike 40:04 – Propaganda and Power 45:09 – Paris Accepts the Massacre 50:00 – A Glimpse into the Future of Terror 55:10 – The Enemy is Still Marching 56:10 – A Final Stand at Valmy 57:01 – Next Time: The Fall of the Monarchy Twitter: @TheRestHistory @holland_tom @dcsandbrook Producer: Theo Young-Smith Video Editor: Jack Meek Assistant Producer: Tabby Syrett Executive Producers: Jack Davenport + Tony Pastor
