Why are you so certain she was not guilty? If Henry just wanted rid of her, arrange an "accident" - a carriage crash with a drunk driver, for instance.

Jessie From Australia.

Matilda is so often smeared- but Steven swore to support her reign, and then removed. He was the reason for civil war, not Matilda.

That looks like the house from the program ghosts

New discovery, excellent, subscribed. Just LOVE the “menagerie”

this was amazing thank you

😍

I work at Birkenhead Priory where the first ferry across the Mersey began from 1150. King Edward 1 visited the Priory on two occasions in 1275 and 1277. During his second visit (August 30th to September 4th 1277), King Edward 1 held a very important meeting inside our Chapter House with envoys from the King of Scotland to discuss borders, ie what was England, Wales and Scotland? The Chapter House built in 1150 still stands intact today and is the oldest standing building on Merseyside at nearly 900 years old. It’s still used as a church. Eleanor did not stay at the Priory but at Shotton Castle on this occasion so was never far from his side.

I so enjoyed this talk!

This guy is terribly hard to listen to, stops, starts, and waffles, the information is there but hard to extract in a coherent manner.

Why is there no records of the time of the people who lived theirs graves or burials like they never lived in the villages or atleast to the public

I got into the Wars of the Roses and the Tudors because there are so many women who played significant roles.

Henry VIII's Will had Lady Jane Grey in the line of succession.

A fitting end to a man who helped to turn this country away from the one true church an true faith

There was no such thing as "The British Republic". Oliver Cromwell, before 1651, was titled, "Lord Protector of the Commonwealth of England."

does the provisions of oxford nullify parts of the previous magna carta

Just bought the book yesterday and thought I would tune in prior to getting far into it.

3:54 Aha, The Tasting HIstory With Max Miller tune. I'm getting hungry.

Pertaining to birth marks his Grandmother Duchess of York would be very aware of the birth marks and thus so would Margret of Burgundy her daughter by way of letters this is a bit of a no brainer and perhaps why it was not mentioned I am not sure which documentary you are talking about but it sounds a bit like >> kzbin.info/www/bejne/mZLWo4OhfqpsqJosi=fVGRyDTa_egq3M7T this one I think that this investigation was done by people at the very top of there field It sound very much to me that a few twisted versions have already come out including this one Which only proves to me that no matter what conclusive proof comes out it will be twisted by the opposition In this documentary which i believe is the original source, they did not say that Edward lived or died at Stokes it was simply unknown They did not say that the life story of Richard was wrote by Richard they said it was written precisely at the correct time frame this was a fact determined by 2 of the world leading experts in the field ... You are clearly twisting the words of the original highly professionals at the very top of the field And the reason there are no documents in England they said at the very beginning of this doc they where all destroyed by the Tutor court and that is why they looked out side of Henrys reach to find what Henry could not destroy If yu want to disprove it perhaps you should find 3 leading experts in the field at the very top of there game 🌸

Can’t you just see her with a book by the window? Remarkable!

I love the hats

All despicable trumped up charges by her bitterest enemies

I could never understand why Henry didn't ban Anne to France. She posed no threat she wasn't going to raise an army, and her marriage was annulled because of a pre contract between her and Henry Percy. To kill a mother of a very young child was the most cruellest of acts and completely unforgivable in my eyes.

I believe that Henry Viii used the sword for Anne, because he knew she was innocent of the crimes that she was accused of and wanted to be more merciful to her, despite how cruel & selfish he was over not having a living son with her. With Catherine, he wanted her to suffer and to feel the shocking pain he claimed he felt for the betrayal she had committed with the other men. Regardless of how they died, and the failures and mistakes the women made, they still died bravely and with courage. I wonder if at the end of Henry's life, if he could say he did the same, or if his memory haunted him in the end with all the things that he had done.

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 🇬🇧 thank you. This was a great watch.

The English are not native to Britannia they are migrants from today's Germany and Denmark the only country in the UK are the Welsh and perhaps Pictland ie the Picts in todays Scotland, the Scots arrived in today's Ireland in the 1st century they were called the Scotti ie Scots the Greeks and Romans called today's Ireland as Scotia ie The Land of the Scots.

I'm only 2 minutes in and already we're told to view the past through the lens of misogyny. This is yet another example of an academic loving the smell of her own farts.

It's beautiful....,I want to go there and talk to her,even if she isn't able to answer...,I can still have a good time talking to the queen herself,dance a bit

Mary was 17 years older than Elizabeth.

Surely if Maximilian knew about the boys and was actually funding one, everyone in Europe would have known. Surely the French or Spanish Ambassador would have written about it, especially when Henry came to the throne. It seems highly improbable that no one else in Europe spoke about it.

Might the baby boy have been the child of Anna's cousin who went with her to England?

She lost her head..just in case anyone wants to skip to the end.

When the larger used every underhand tactic at its to swallow up the smaller.

Trump is a modern Henry.

He invented crimes to bring down Anne Boleyn and never thought others would do the same to bring him down. Henry didn’t realise what an asset he was until after he’d gone.

Thanks for such an interesting and informative chat . I’m reading “Young And Dammed And Fair “at the moment and loving it . I’m going to order your next book on The Palace next . Once again, thank you to you both.👏

😮😮

After listening to this great podcast and reading the comments, I think it’s time to buy that burger van I’ve always wanted and get it parked outside Coleridge Church next summer 👍

A fitting end to a man who helped to turn this country away from the one true church and true faith 🙏

It must have been something of a lottery, when it came to which notable folk could survive, without execution. Cromwell clearly made enemies and treated others with pitiless disdain but other much kinder, guarded and scrupulous folk suffered similar fates. As a proportion of the population, the number of executions under Henry VIII matched Stalin …. truly awful.

Thanks!

He was instrumental in the trumped-up charges that got Anne Boleyn executed, among other little jobs for Henry. It is difficult to feel sorry for him.

What absolute rubbish. It is pure Yorkist propaganda.

She must've been beautiful. Peter Lely painted EVERY woman in England with HER face. 😂

Wonderful this video popped up just as I am starting to make my 6 year old daughter a Tudor/Frozen inspired gown for her birthday.

Fascinating interview! I recently purchased the book and I have the audiobook in my Audible library. It will be the next book I listen to.

Cromwell’s chief mistake was failing to please Henry; Henry was a very dangerous man to know and work for. Cromwell should have realised that in these situations one is only as secure as your current success or your current failure.

Dr. Starkey already debunked this John Evans theory. It’s bullshit. Easily disproved and makes zero sense. Stop trying to turn history into the DaVinci Code.

I want to posit a theory that Lambert Simnel, at least the figure who represented Lambert Simnel, not the boy who was put to work as a scullion by Henry VII, was in fact Edward V. I never gave much credence to this thought until I started contemplating the role of John de la Pole, Earl of Lincoln. Lincoln at the time had the best claim to the throne. Why would Lincoln throw his support behind an unknown boy claiming to be Edward, Earl of Warwick, who de la Pole knew fully well was alive and in the Tower. It doesn’t make sense. The only reasonable explanation is that Lambert Simnel was a Tudor invention used to coverup the real pretender who was defeated at Stoke…Edward V. This also lends to the idea that Perkin Warbeck was indeed Richard of Shrewsbury.

Some of my most awesome Grandads x multiple generations are the Tudurs ❤
