As a son of Dunfermline, I love seeing videos about it. Thanks so much for showing the incredible architecture of the Abbey to the world. When I was at school, history gave me up as it was just about dates. Now, much older, I can begin to appreciate the history of the country. Keep up the great work.

As Queen of England, Matilda was a generous benefactor. She founded the leper hospital of St Giles in Holborn, and the priory of Holy a trinity at Aldgate, and she built the first public lavatory and public bath in the city of London. She also patronised writers and musicians, she was particularly fond of music and generous to good church musicians,

She sounds like an amazing woman, the kind of ferociously intelligent, spirited, strong-willed, probably beautiful women that I always admire. The kind for whom the concept of "other people guaranteeing women's rights to her" would have been a flat insult. Because she didn't need anyone else to do stuff for her. Thanks for a great story!

@benjaminlasseter, never forget that rights like those you are talking about should also be extended to those who aren't strong enough to stand up for them. I'm having to stand up for mine in the States right now and it makes me sick to think of how many elderly women are probably getting cheated like they're trying to do to me because they don't understand what they're entitled to by law! Men who don't have education could be having the same problem too! Does that change the equation?

Hi Bruce, tremendous video, as always!😊 I love how you tie the bits of history together that the school book writers deem unworthy of knowledge into something that suddenly makes the history make sense! I knew where David came from. I didn't totally understand why he got the Scottish throne until now! It's no wonder that history is one of the least liked subjects in school: they don't teach it right! Correctly by dates alone, yes. Right, NO! This poor churchmouse appreciates you filling in those gaps every day! Thank you!

Years later when William had the entire population of Yorkshire massacred, I'll bet that they had wished they'd been part of Scotland instead of England. As for toff and tosser, I'm told that the terms are pretty much interchangeable. Matilda was certainly one hell of a great woman, worthy of being a role model for girls to admire.

I knew the story of Edith/Matilda. I always wondered how convents and monasteries raised very young children. Were there nannies or were some members of the religious community charged with nursemaid duties? The death of William Rufus has always been a subject of debate because some thought the king was assassinated to pave the way for Henry I. Supposedly, Edith/Matilda was beautiful .Edith/ Matilda had two children, but her flagrantly unfaithful husband fathered many illegitimate children. Edith/ Matilda was the maternal grandmother of Henry II and, therefore, the ancestress of the current Royal Family.

Any chance of doing a story that’s from the west of Scotland??? They all seem to originate from everywhere else. You are missing some great historical stories..

St Anselm of Canterbury, author of the Ontological Proof of God's Existence, has a walk-on part here which confirms his prowess at "reverse engineering." He was a master at proving what he wanted to find.

All I see from the Adventure tour link is an itinerary, and no way to get costs or other specifics? Hm. I have never done such a trip, so maybe I just don't get it.

@@ScotlandHistoryTours I wish it was being funny, but a sweaty Areican whitish woman does not look good even at your concert lol. That type of fear of fly. I get near SFO my palms are wet. I have to tell everyone I know I have that fear to meet or pick up or drop off at airports. SFO is cool to hang at since I was a kid and my poor young parents would hang and watch plains flight out. I can say only when Prsident Clinton and Obama flight out of SFO did I found My countries presdidental planes to be the coolest. I also did temp work at United Airlines before 9/1. Thanks you being yourself Bruce. Its hard to find real people.

A'reyt Bruce. So King Edward was part Scottish royalty and Robert the Bruce was some Norman toffer. I saw a song about that. Normans and Saxons and Northumbrians all just English. Nun-sense? Good video as always though.
