I grew up in a Manor house that was finished in 1492 and was rebuilt several times over the centuries. Its main hall had the largest coats of arms in the country (with erect appendages still intact). Also had a 'Spanish room' which was used to host Spanish monarchs over the years. Mad to think such a place was used as a boarding school for the care system.

In the future could you please consider doing some videos on the following people?: Georgiana Spencer, fifth Duchess of Devonshire, Queen Charlotte, wife of George III, Elvis Presley, Priscilla Presley, Lisa Marie Presley, Maybe also the other eight children of Queen Victoria besides Edward VII I know it's a lot but your type of videos would be perfect for such topics!

This documentary on Charles I was excellent. I have particular interest since my ancestor fought in the New Model Army with Cromwell and was one of the 59 who signed the death warrant for Charles. Your presentation does a good job of shedding light on Charles's intractability, however it also shed light on how the religious reforms Charles was insisting on initiated so much of the trouble. I can't come down solidly on either side. Surely, as you so well present, Charles was responsible for his downfall. However, the formation of the Rump Parliament, with so many refusing, does seem like a kangaroo court. My descendants, from Vincent (who signed the warrant) on down, however, were mostly an arrogant, self-impressed lot. They did notable and laudable things, but were in many ways as headstrong, self-impressed, and as intractable as Charles.

very good video on Charles I of Scotland, England and Ireland . i don't think Charles was the brightest bulb in the box, he certainly lacked his father James VI/I shrewdness or political grasp and lacked the ability to compromise, which his son James VII/II also lacked, they fully believed in the divine rights of kings. Charles despite being born in Scotland, but raised in England, lacked i complete understanding of Scotland unlike his father James VI/I and behaved in a very autocratic ignorant manner. having said that the religious factions IN England in many ways did not help either , trying to impose their views on the population. The Parliamentarians did not wholly reflect the population view indeed they were controlled by a vey puritanical radical bunch who sought to impose their views on the people as much as Charles did . It is very interesting to note that the people regardless of Charles behavior were more sympathetic to him than parliament and as soon as possible restored the monarchy. Charles II was crowned King of Scots in 1651 nine years before he was restored to England's throne and Cromwell invaded Scotland and did exactly same thing they condemned Charles I for, imposed their view and a protective that Scotland did not want, as a separate independent Nation. Whilst Charles I was not the brightest bulb he was however the rightful King and rightly refused to acknowledge the legitimacy of the court that condemned him, those who signed his death warrant were guilty of regicide. like his grandmother before him Queen Mary I of Scotland both were murdered by England who had no legal or moral right to do so, his grandmother more so.

He certainly made a lot of mistakes during his rule, and he was too stubborn to be able to compromise. Politics is about compromise but on the other hand, what parliament was effectively demanding from Charles, was for him to be reduced to a mostly decorative king and that at the time was not something understandable nor acceptable, so we shouldn’t view it in today’s terms, where we’re accustomed for the sovereign to be mainly a ceremonial figure. OK, obviously parliament was the victor in the war, and the victor is the one who lay down the rules but their take it or leave it approach wasn’t gonna fly with a feisty man like Charles and they should know that. Parliament’s biggest mistake was that they illegally put the king on trial and they executed him, an outcome that was pre decided by Cromwell and his people.

While the circumstances of Charles 1's time as a monarch may have been challenging, his own obstinacy was the greatest factor in his downfall! He and Laud had been persecuting the Puritans and Presbyterians, who were angry about that, adding unnecessarily to his list of enemies...

despite the union of the crowns in 1603 James retained his title as James VI of Scotland and not as James I of England Scotland and Ireland as the narrator has stated. Also all monarchs from 1603-1707 were king and Queen of both Scotland and England. Why cannot people reflect that instead of showing a very ignorant approach to the subject they are talking about. ie the heading of this video. The Stuarts were the Royal Dynasty of Scotland, indeed the present House of Windsor derive their claim to the British crown from the Stewarts/Stuarts. Also the monarchs in some cases had a different number in Scotland from England. James VII of Scotland and II of England, William II of Scotland but II of England. Its worth noting that our late Queen Elizabeth was not Elizabeth II in Scotland or indeed that of Great Britain, she was Elizabeth, despite what she as called etc and her coins depicted. Indeed our late Queen was the most Scottish monarch since the days of the Stewarts /Stuarts

The Stuarts did not have a single Machiavellian bone in them. They were weak and spineless,(apart from James 1 who was the wisest fool in Christendom). The Tudors would not have tolerated the rise of Puritanism and Cromwell. Had Edward the son of Henry the Eighth had a son,or Elizabeth an heir,the mess of a civil war would have been avoided. However,the fall of the Stuarts and the rise of Cromwell and the generals was a good thing for England. It weakened the power of France and allowed for the formation of a fearsome army,(the New Model Army). They were properly trained and had the best weapons available anywhere in Europe. As a French emissary wrote in his dispatches to the court in Versailles,: “ I have seen the English and they have the best troops possible “.

Most observers, British and foreigners, believe that Charles I was a man looking behind him to the past instead of forward to the future. Charles I wanted to remain immutable in a time of change. In hindsight, a different Charles I might have had to painfully swallow inevitable limitations to his crown authority but it didn't have to be as restrictive as it is today. A more adroit Charles I might have played to the strengths and weaknesses of Parliament, willing to cultivate enough supporters who would countenance less restrictions on the king's absolute authority than was originally demanded. In other words, Charles I might have to accept the lesser of two evils, taking two steps forward and one back, instead of being forced all the way back which is what happened. Yet Charles I did not possess that kind of political acumen nor willingness to accept the least of any limitation to his authority. In the grand scheme of things, you might have to agree that in a time of implacable change, Charles I was the engineer of his own downfall and still he never recognized that situation as the executioner's ax came swinging down.

Deposing their Kings, introducing Presbyterianism. Scotland was the most protestant country in Europe and their Stuart family were secret Catholics. It was England who inherited the problems of Scotland and their King.

He did not have the negotiation skills: war was avoidable, however, he chose to place his people in continuous peril. By today's standards he mixed religious law with civil law; by the 1600's standards he pushed the letter, and ultimately paid the price culminating in the loss of his head.🇬🇧

I am a Bible believing Christian and I am strongly opposed to a powerful and dominating clergy. I am most certainly opposed to any government sanctioned church which Charles certainly supported. Conversely, I find many commendable aspects to the Puritan movement which began as an offshoot of the Anglican church in the 1500's. I regard as very commendable the position of the Puritan movement (a grassroots movement) to encourage each family to acquire a Bible of their own and to read it and study it daily. America's Christian heritage, which sadly is fading away, can largely be traced back to the Puritans. The Puritans were arguably the most Biblically literate people the world has ever known, and I believe that they largely exemplified what it means to truly be "Christian".

They say English Civil War. It actually started in Scotland. Charles 1st tried to force Catholicism on Scotland. The rebellion thus started what was called The English Civil War.

Charles the first just did not have the diplomatic skills of his Father King James. And if Charles thought he could rule like the Kings in Spain he was grossly mistaken. Spain was united under Catholicism & was at this time quite wealthy. Charles was trying to rule multiple lands with very different cultural & religious views. He thought he could jam a square peg into a round hole with force of will,while showing little to no interest in the welfare of his subjects. Most people had never even seen the King. His antisocial personality was disastrous for a King. And he had several occasions to mend some of these rifts at the end but he was dubious in his intents and simply could not be trusted. He was a failure in his role as a King.

Henry the 8th left big scars in England. People forget how tyrannical he was and generally feared. When any king there after displayed any characteristics like him the nobles shit themselves. Charles was removed and a system was put In place so those situations could never happen again

These events have nothing to do with Henry. Protestantism was well out of the bed irrespective of Henry and Scotland had already embraced. Presbyterianism / Puritanism during Elizabeth reign, independent of England. England inherited a Scottish King who brought their problems over.

King Charles was clearly a arrogant and deceitful monarch, however his trial was neither fair nor lawful.

I think Charles and England simply fell victim to a perfect storm. An obstinate king, dogged politicians, implacable religious minorities, economic woes, and many more factors which, on their own, would not have been incredibly impactful, all together, proved disastrous.
