Why did Henry VIII have two wives executed? We can learn a lot about the circumstances which led to the executions of Anne Boleyn and, 6 years later, her cousin Catherine Howard, by comparing and contrasting the two. Gareth Russell explores the events surrounding the downfall of each of the ill-fated Queens of Henry VIII in this new perspective on a familiar story and reveals a surprising fact...that Henry wrote a play about Anne Boleyn's "sexual misdemeanors" before her trial! #AnneBoleyn #HenryVIII #CatherineHoward You can also watch this episode on YouTube.

Lesley Smith has been the Curator of Tutbury Castle in Staffordshire since 2000. Lesley is well known for her highly entertaining and informative costumed portrayals of a variety of historical characters. I've had the privilege of seeing Lesley's portrayals of Mary, Queen of Scots at Tutbury Castle as part of my 2019 Executed Queens tour and in January 2020 I was at Peterborough Cathedral for her first performance of Katherine of Aragon. I think what Lesley does is completely unique. Her portrayal of women in history, dressed as they would have been, is not a reenactment, rather she brings these women to life through her monologues and it's as if they are standing there talking to you. Lesley kindly agreed to join me and answer questions about the women she portrays and how she prepares her characters. You can also watch this episode on YouTube.

On 10th December 1936, King Edward VIII abdicated, the first and only king in British history to do so willingly. In our line of monarchs, Edward VIII is the only one to have turned his back on the Crown and the position of Head of the Church in England.

The death of Princess Charlotte, daughter of the future George IV, in 1817 due to complications following the birth of a stillborn son, was a personal tragedy for the family but it didn't end there. The knock-on impact of Charlotte's death was far-reaching, the family's grief was echoed across the country but beyond that, there was now a succession crisis worse than any in English history. There was not one surviving, legitimate, grandchild of George III. The loss of Charlotte and her baby wiped out two generations of legitimate heirs. It was the 'race for a new heir' which led to the birth of Victoria, later Queen Victoria. Yet, many people have not heard of Charlotte. Type her name in search engines and they will return, understandably, countless pictures of the daughter of Prince William and Kate Middleton. Such is the tragedy and significance of Princess Charlotte's story that it is one we should all know. You can also watch this episode on YouTube. Watch the episode on Princess Charlotte.
