On 9th September 2015, Queen Elizabeth II became the longest serving British monarch. One of the most enduring images of her coronation in 1953 is that of Her Majesty surrounded by her dukes. Their influence once extended beyond the merely ceremonial, they were a crucial part of the architecture that supported the monarchy. Only 24 noble dukes now remain and this documentary - with unique access to the dukes of Norfolk, Argyll, Montrose and Marlborough - explores both the fascinating history and function of their great dukedoms in modern day Britain.

Winston Churchill was a close relative of the ducal family, I believe he was briefly heir apparent. No idea about Diana but the Spencers are a prominent aristocratic family, one of whose members married into the Churchill family in the 19th Century (hence the hyphen), so it could be an extremely distant relation

in the section of Determined Duchess...Her Grace the Duchess of Rutland is not snobby at all, but rather intent on keeping history alive willingly putting things straight again after so many years of what i see as "neglect" of taking care of things properly, if this makes sense. At the end of the stories, it was sad to see some of the lines of aristocracy just simply come to an end due to no male heirs :(
@nunyabiznez6381

As I understand it, inheritance of such titles is based on the original grant of the title which usually specifies that the title is to be passed to male heirs. I'm wondering if it wouldn't be a nice idea if a law was passed superseding such clauses granting a title that is about to go extinct to the closest female relative of the most recent duke. They do that with the monarchy so why not with a dukedom? I think it is a shame when one goes extinct.

Finally, the Lady's were a pretty important part in this as two men cannot produce a boy! hehe... sorry had to add that!

The laws of succession have changed since Prince George was born, and as far as the Monarchy is concerned, the firstborn child - whether girl or boy - inherits the title. Princess Margaret (Prince Charles' sister) was firstborn, but because the old laws of succession were based on primogeniture, her younger brother, Charles, superseded her, and he will be King. Then crown will then go to Will, and presumably then to George. However, if something happens to George before reaching adulthood, because of the new law, the crown will go to Charlotte, NOT her younger brother Louis.

A very interesting video - thanks. It always amazes me that anybody would build such a place for one family - how on earth did they suppose they would use it all - or is it just their total conceit at having something 'bigger' than those others - and all for show ? Nobody knows what to do with them nowadays because most of us are too practical !

It's also that no one is seen as being deserving of being offered one the last person offered was Sir Winston Churchill. Also if anyone cares there are about 3 Dukedoms that could be reinstated the Duke of Berwick who is a Spanish Grandee in Spain and two Germans former Princes of the German Empire the Duke of Cumberland and Teviotdale and the Dukedom of Albany

His ancestor "was hung"?! That's quite a personal detail to reveal! Did the family keep track of that sort of thing? Oh, pardon me, he meant to say "He was hanged". That makes more sense within the context.

Nathan Caravaggio Listen carefully to the video. The ancestor was hung, that is to say suspended, for three hours on a gibbet then cut down and dismembered and his limbs were hung on the gates of the main cities of Scotland. That is different from saying the man was taken out and hanged by the neck until dead, as the usual sentence went. He said what he meant to say. His ancestor's body was used to strike fear in the heart of anyone who might do what he did.

exdus, the Duke of Montrose was also careless, I thought, pawing through his forebear's execution apparel without protective gloves. And he clearly didn't see the irony of saying he was charged with maintaining such heirlooms "for other people to appreciate" when he had them stored away in his private residence (that1930s monstrosity) in Scotland!
