Today we will be talking about the fifth wife of King Henry VIII, Catherine Howard. Now when we last left the Tudor world, Henry had annulled his marriage to Anne of Cleves and in a way she got away scott free from a man who had a history of taking out his insecurities and his furies on his wives - thus the rhyme to remember his wives, Divorced, Beheaded, Died, Divorced. And we'll find the next part of that rhyme by the end of this episode. Thank you for listening to Medieval Murder!

Tudor history is full of ‘wicked women'—but were they truly wicked, or simply women who refused to conform?   From Anne Boleyn, accused of adultery and treason, to Catherine Howard, condemned for her past, and Lettice Knollys, who dared to marry Robert Dudley, history has painted many Tudor women as villains. But was their greatest crime simply being outspoken, ambitious, or politically savvy in a world that feared powerful women?   Join me as I uncover the truth behind these so-called wicked women of the Tudor era. Were they villains—or victims of a world that refused to tolerate female power?

Henry VIII executed two of his six wives—two young women from the same powerful family, both elevated to queenship and both brutally cut down. But while their fates were the same, their downfalls couldn't have been more different.    Anne Boleyn's fall was a calculated, political execution—fast, ruthless, and built on lies.  Catherine Howard's fall was a slow-motion disaster, the result of a real investigation that dragged on for months before the axe fell.   Why were their fates so different?   In this podcast, we'll compare Anne and Catherine's falls, expose the truth behind their downfalls, and reveal the real villain of these tragic stories.   Thank you to Bianca Brooke for inspiring this discussion!   What do you think?

On 6th March 1547, Thomas Wriothesley, 1st Earl of Southampton and former Lord Chancellor to Henry VIII, suffered a dramatic fall from power, losing the Great Seal of his Lord Chancellorship. But was this really about his overreach, or was it part of a larger power struggle?   Wriothesley had been one of Henry VIII's most trusted advisors. He played a key role in major Tudor events, including Catherine Howard's downfall, Anne Askew's trial, and Henry VIII's final days. Yet, his opposition to Edward Seymour, Duke of Somerset, sealed his fate.   Join me as I explore the life, power, and downfall of this controversial Tudor figure.   #TudorHistory #HenryVIII #ThomasWriothesley #WolfHall #AnneBoleynFiles #OnThisDay #HistoryLovers #Tudors #BritishHistory #RenaissanceHistory #HouseOfTudor

How William Howard Survived Tudor England The Tudor court was a treacherous place where even the slightest misstep could cost you your head. For William Howard, 1st Baron Howard of Effingham, survival wasn't just luck—it was a carefully calculated game of loyalty, adaptability, and knowing when to keep quiet. On this day in Tudor history, 12th January 1573, William Howard died at Hampton Court Palace. But how did this man navigate the reigns of four Tudor monarchs without meeting the same grisly fate as many of his relatives—like Anne Boleyn and Catherine Howard? Howard's story is one of resilience. He rose to power as a soldier, diplomat, and even Lord Admiral. But he wasn't without controversy—he faced imprisonment after getting caught up in Queen Catherine Howard's scandal and even defended London during Wyatt's Rebellion. Despite his family's dangerous reputation, he managed to rebuild his career and regain royal favour under both Mary I and Elizabeth I. So, what made William Howard different? What allowed him to endure when so many others fell? Let's uncover the remarkable story of a man who knew how to play the Tudor game of thrones—without losing his head. #TudorHistory #OnThisDay #WilliamHoward #HowardFamily #TudorCourt #AnneBoleyn #CatherineHoward #ElizabethanHistory #TudorPolitics #SurvivalInTudorEngland

Leigh Wakefield shares her extensive research, exploring how depictions of Catherine Howard have evolved from the early 20th century to today. Discover how modern feminism and the Me Too movement have influenced new interpretations, presenting Catherine as a victim of historical misogyny rather than just a "promiscuous tart."

She humiliated Henry by indulging the attentions of one of his favourite courtiers and she duly was sent to the chopping block. Meanwhile, his health deteriorated, plagued by a painful and worsening leg ulcer. Determined to assert his authority, he launched a final, ill-fated invasion of France and began reversing some of his earlier religious reforms. At the same time, he focused on securing the succession for his children.When Henry passed away in 1547, he left England in turmoil, and stability would not be restored until his daughter Elizabeth took the throne in 1558.You can also watch this episode as a video on YouTube.The Ministry of History offers more than just podcast episodes!

A project that examines the bus routes at a local school to see whether they are operating in the most efficient way has been announced as the winner of the BT Young Scientist Business Bootcamp 2024. Now in its 15th year, the Bootcamp was set up by BT Ireland to support BTYSTE finalists with developing their project ideas into commercial enterprises under the guidance of BTYSTE alumni, BT Ireland mentors, and expert judges. The winning project developed by Ava Gaffney, a 4th year student from Ballinamore Community School, Leitrim, was originally developed as an entry in BTYSTE 2024 and examines the local bus routes to school to see whether or not they are operating in the most efficient way. Members of the winning group also included: Alec Hannan, a 5th year student from Gonzaga College, Dublin, Caragh Killeen, a 6th year student from St Joseph's Community College, Clare, and Séan Murphy, a 4th year student from Colaiste Mhuire, Westmeath. Harry O'Leary, a 5th year student from Gonzaga College, Dublin has been named as 'Best Individual' at the BT Young Scientist Business Bootcamp 2024. The BT Young Scientist Business Bootcamp delivered in partnership with Nova UCD, took place from March 4 - 7, and involved 26 students representing 10 counties, from across the island of Ireland. The participants were shortlisted from the prize winners at BTYSTE 2024, with six projects selected from the exhibition for the students to work on and develop at Bootcamp. The students engaged in a four-day intensive programme that included workshops on business development, marketing and commercialisation. They also had the opportunity to hear from BTYSTE alumni who have launched successful enterprises. On the final day the students pitched their project to expert panel of judges who volunteered their time. Judges this year included Shay Walsh, Managing Director of BT Ireland, Dr Tony Scott, co-founder of the BTYSTE, Catherine Howard, Vice President, Technology, at IDA Ireland, and Brian O'Donovan, Work and Technology Correspondent at RTÉ. Shay Walsh, Managing Director of BT Ireland, which organises the bootcamp, said, "Now in its 15th year, the BT Young Scientist Business Bootcamp provides finalists at the exhibition with the skills and insights to encourage them to turn their projects into commercial enterprises. "As the demand for STEM skills continue to grow each year, we know that the skills and advice that the students receive here will be instrumental in the development of Ireland's future workforce, ensuring that Ireland continues to drive innovation as a market leader." Pat Guiry, UCD Professor and Chair of the Young Scientist Charitable Trust said, "We were absolutely thrilled to host the students from the BT Young Scientist Business Bootcamp here at Nova UCD this week. Nova UCD is a hub for new ventures and entrepreneurs, making it a very fitting location for the next generation of future entrepreneurs to develop their project ideas into commercial enterprises. "I would like to extend my congratulations to the winners, and all those who took part, and wish them well as they continue throughout their education, and with their future careers."

The Stinas explore Princess Sybille of Cleves, the subject of the film's most noteworthy paintings, as well as her entire family of royals during the rule of Henry VIII- not to mention one of history's juiciest catfishing schemes!

There's some hesitant cheering, some applauding. The queens ladies in waiting scream, wail, fall to the ground. One rushes forward and gathers Anne's head in a white cloth. Others drag her body from the stage. Somewhere a cannon fires. Anne is carted away. She'll be buried in a shallow, unmarked grave. Meanwhile, as the cannonfire fades away, Henry VIII hops on a barge.

Henry VIII went down in history, not so much for what he accomplished as king of England but for one tantalizing fact - he had six wives. Catherine of Aragon, Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, Anne of Cleves, Catherine Howard, Katherine Parr - these six women are often defined by their association with Henry VIII, she was wife number 2, she was number 5, she was number 6, their very humanity reduced to a number. Not Catherine, not Anne, not Jane, just “Henry VIII's wife.” But these women were more than just wives, they were individuals, each with their own story, all of them overshadowed by the desperation of a man determined to continue his legacy. But did you know, in his absurd quest for a male heir, Henry VIII ripped his country apart, changing the religion of the entire nation, executing his closest advisors, tormenting his wives, and ultimately failing miserably?
