Just so well done. Thank you for the great content - and for making them full length episodes lol

[@historyslifestories373]

Cheers Andy, I too enjoy reading about pre-Norman England, and I will indeed do some more videos around this period, maybe even going back to the demise of the Roman’s in England - food for thought 🙏👍

I’m not sure why there was the extended look at the “new” St Pauls. They even said in the video that this isn’t the cathedral that existed at the time. I’m fine showing things at the cathedral that reference things that happened here in the past, but the long shots with choir music was a bit much. Other than that, I really liked this. Will definitely look into others from this channel.

[@historyslifestories373]

Hi Amexgirl, thanks for your comment. I have taken on board what you have said, I guess it’s all a bit of a balancing act, what to put in and how much etc. hopefully future videos will have the right mix 🙏👍

@@historyslifestories373I found it wonderful to be honest, it’s an insight into that moment. It’s interesting to suspend belief and understand the way people thought back then.

Aethelred II was not called "Unready" but m"Unraed" meaning "Poorly Advised". Aethelred was actually a well educated King. He is one of my Ancestors, descended from my 34x Great Grandfather Aelfred The Great.

I can honestly say my family killed my family… I am dna related to some in the saint Bryce day massacre, but also related by dna and genealogy to king aethelred 😂🤣😂 among other British Scottish, Irish and Scandinavian royalty.
