Podcast appearances and mentions of Lady Jane Grey

The Grey family turns up again and again in late medieval and Tudor history, from Elizabeth Woodville's first marriage, to Lady Jane Grey's nine-day reign, to her sisters' scandals under Elizabeth I. In this episode, we trace the story of the Greys across the centuries, exploring how one family rose from Bedfordshire gentry to the very edge of the throne, only to find that being “almost royal” was as dangerous as it was powerful.

Imagine being remembered not just as a bishop, diplomat, and court insider… but also as the student who annoyed a future martyr with your recorder practice! That was Thomas Thirlby, a man whose life saw the reigns of Henry VII, Henry VIII, Edward VI, Lady Jane Grey, Mary I, and Elizabeth I. He supported Henry VIII's marriage to Anne Boleyn, helped suppress the Pilgrimage of Grace, became the very first Bishop of Westminster, rose high under Mary I as Bishop of Ely, and yet ended his life under house arrest in Elizabeth's reign. In this video, I explore: - Thirlby's rise under Cromwell and Cranmer - His role in diplomacy and religious change - Why he had to degrade his old friend Thomas Cranmer before his execution - How his Catholic faith cost him dearly under Elizabeth I - And of course, that quirky Cambridge anecdote about annoying reformer Thomas Bilney with his recorder playing!

When you hear the name Cecil in Tudor history, you probably think of William Cecil, Elizabeth I's right-hand man. But behind him was his wife, Mildred Cecil, born Mildred Cooke on 25th August 1526 — a woman every bit as remarkable, and one of the most learned women of her age. In this video, I uncover the fascinating life of Mildred Cecil: - Her extraordinary humanist education, ranking her alongside Lady Jane Grey. - Her marriage to William Cecil, forming a true Tudor power couple. - Her scholarship, translations, and magnificent library. - Her role at Elizabeth I's court and her influence behind the scenes. - The legacy she left behind — from books gifted to schools and universities to her resting place in Westminster Abbey. Too often overshadowed by her husband and son, Mildred Cecil deserves to be remembered as a Tudor powerhouse in her own right.

Mur Hadriana, symbol potęgi Rzymian na wyspie Brytania, był jednym z celów naszej wędrówki po północnej i południowej Anglii. Odwiedziliśmy największy w Wielkiej Brytanii, obfitujący w jeziora Park Narodowy Lake District, neolityczny kamienny krąg Castlerigg, opactwa: Lanercost, Hexham i Blanchland, historyczne miasta Durham i Barnard Castle oraz urokliwe miasteczka i wioski regionu Cotswolds. W średniowiecznym zamku Sudeley chodziliśmy śladami dawnych królów i królowych, w tym Ryszarda III, Elżbiety I i Lady Jane Grey. Zwiedziliśmy imponujący barokowy pałac Blenheim, gniazdo rodzinne Churchillów. Zajrzeliśmy do kolegów Uniwersytetu Oksfordzkiego, najstarszego w krajach anglosaskich, drugiego najstarszego na świecie zaraz za Uniwersytetem Bolońskim. Gościem Jerzego Jopa była Danuta Rasała.

This episode was supposed to be about Lady Jane Grey, the "Nine Days Queen" who was hastily placed on the English throne following the death of Henry VIII's son Edward VI, usurping his older sister Mary. But as I researched Jane Grey, I came across another character entirely who desperately needed her story "fixed." Frances Grey was Jane Grey's mother (and the niece of Henry VIII). History has not remembered Frances fondly. In the almost 500 years since her death, she has been cast as the evil mother figure, the very archetype of female wickedness. But who was Frances Grey really? Was she really as bad as her reputation would have us believe? And what part did she actually play in the tragic fate of her daughter? Let's fix that. Support the show! Join the Patreon (patreon.com/historyfixpodcast)Buy some merchBuy Me a CoffeeVenmo @Shea-LaFountaineSources: Susan Higginbotham" The Maligned Frances Grey, Duchess of Suffolk"The Tudor Society "Frances Grey, Duchess of Suffolk"Westminster Abbey "Frances Brandon, Duchess of Suffolk & Family"Historic UK "Mary Tudor, Princess of England and Queen of France"Wikipedia "Frances Grey, Duchess of Suffolk"Royal Museums Greenwich "Young Elizabeth and the Seymour Scandal"History Extra "Did Thomas Seymour sexually abuse the teenage Princess Elizabeth?"Shoot me a message!

You know Lady Jane Grey, but what about her sisters?In this episode, we explore the hidden lives of Katherine and Mary Grey: two Tudor women caught between love and loyalty, royal blood and royal punishment. From secret marriages to imprisonment, childbirth in the Tower, and years of house arrest, the Grey sisters lived lives as dramatic as any queen's; just without the crown.Remember, Tudorcon tickets are at https://www.englandcast.com/Tudorcon to come in person and https://www.englandcast.com/TudorconFromHome to come online!

Frances Grey, Duchess of Suffolk, is often reduced to a footnote in history — simply the mother of the tragic Lady Jane Grey. But who was she really? In this episode, I dive into the life of Frances Brandon, born on 16th July 1517 — niece of Henry VIII, daughter of Mary Tudor, Queen of France, and a woman maligned by centuries of misrepresentation. Was she truly the cold, cruel mother some have claimed? Or has one quote from a teenage Lady Jane Grey unfairly shaped her legacy? I'll explore: - Frances's elite Tudor lineage  - Her controversial portrayal as a harsh mother - Her entanglement in the 1553 succession crisis - The truth behind the myths, with insight from historian Susan Higginbotham And the softer side of Frances, seen in her later love match and quiet life after tragedy Join me in uncovering the real story of a woman who deserves more than the shadow of her daughter's brief reign.

Auf den englischen Thron schaffen es etliche Adelige in der langen Monarchiegeschichte. Allerdings halten sich viele dort nicht lange, zu intrigenreich ist der Hof, zu begehrt die Krone. Lady Jane Grey regiert gerade mal neun Tage, dann fällt da schon das Beil des Scharfrichters.

What really happened to Tom Canty after he swapped places with Edward VI in Mark Twain's The Prince and the Pauper?In this conversation, I sit down with debut author Frederic Fahey to talk about his historical novel The Scoundrel's Son, a rich and imaginative continuation of Twain's classic tale—set in the heart of Tudor England. We chat about why Fred felt called to tell Tom's story, the real Tudor figures who make appearances (yes, including Lady Jane Grey!), and how a scientist-turned-author finds inspiration in friendship, identity, and loss.Also: the Wicked book cover connection, writing strong Tudor women, and the character who punches people in the nose when necessary.

Free from Henry at long last, and with Thomas Seymour home from his European duties, Catherine quickly, but discretely, found her way back to her old flame. They married in secret, which displeased both the new king, Edward VI, and Princess Mary, Catherine's good friend. Thomas's brother Edward - by then the 1st Duke of Somerset - was more or less running the country for his nephew, then nine or ten years old, and presented a foil to Thomas, and ultimately led to his downfall. This was a dicey period for Thomas Seymour, because upon his return to England, he fired off a letter to 14-year-old Princess Elizabeth proposing marriage. Catherine must not have known this when, once their marriage was public, she invited both Elizabeth and Lady Jane Grey to live in their household, and it is here where Thomas's personality and proclivities take a dark turn. A member of their household would later testify about inappropriate visits he would make to Elizabeth's bed chamber, inappropriate touching, and, as a last straw, a time when Catherine discovered the pair in an embrace. Elizabeth was sent to live in another noble home in May 1548 - which was the last time she would ever see her much beloved stepmother. Catherine Parr gave birth to a daughter on the 30th of August, 1548, and died on September 5, 1548, of "childbed fever" - a catchall term for any of a number of post-partum infections that were common in the era. Her beloved, but betraying, husband only lived a few months longer. Thomas Seymour was arrested and charged with treason in February 1549, and executed on March 20 of that year.

Henry VIII had six wives, but he also had two sisters, and these sisters seldom get the attention they deserve. The younger was Princess Mary, the youngest child of Henry VII and Elizabeth of York to reach adulthood. Mary was famed for her beauty but also the scandal caused by her second marriage to Charles Brandon, a marriage from which Lady Jane Grey traced her direct descent. To discuss Mary and her story with me today, I am pleased to welcome Amy McElroy onto the podcast for the first time. We discuss Mary's early life, her short-lived marriage to the French king, whether there is any truth in the theory that Mary introduced the French hood into England, plus much more!

On this week's Aftermath REWIND, Rebecca speaks with Dr. J Stephan Edwards about the death (and life!) of Lady Jane Grey. Dr. Edwards Ph.D. in early modern European history, with an emphasis on Tudor-Stuart England, has led to a great fascination with the infamous Nine Day Queen. And his extensive research highlights some of the ways in which the history books might not be telling the full story.

The first Tudor Queen of England helped to end the Wars of the Roses. Her son, Henry VIII took six Queens during his reign and beheaded two of them. Lady Jane Grey and Mary I both had husbands who claimed the title of King while Elizabeth I avoided the whole matrimonial mess. The Tudor Queens consort and male consorts were: Elizabeth of York Catherine of Aragon Anne Boleyn Jane Seymour Anne of Cleves Catherine Howard Catherine Parr Guildford Dudley Philip of Spain The lives of the many Kings and handful of Queens Regnant who have held dominion over the kingdom of England, and later the United Kingdom take center stage in history. But the lives of their spouses and mothers are often relegated to the wings. In this series we will learn the stories of the many Queens Consort and the handful of male consorts who have been at the monarchs' sides. Through love, hate, adultery and sometimes murder these women and men have played vital roles in the history of England. Join me every Tuesday when I'm Spilling the Tea on History!

What must I do to be saved? In this message, we look to Scripture—and the unwavering testimony of Lady Jane Grey—to see that salvation comes not by ritual, merit, or human effort, but by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone.

Why did people like Anne Boleyn, George Boleyn, and Lady Jane Grey use their final words to praise the monarch who condemned them to die? Were they afraid? Following orders? Or was there something deeper at work? In this podvast, I explore the rituals, beliefs, and expectations behind execution speeches in the Tudor period. From religious symbolism to social pressure and political theatre, the scaffold was more than a place of death—it was a stage for legacy, loyalty, and salvation. Discover the hidden structure behind these chilling final words—and what they reveal about Tudor society. #AnneBoleyn #LadyJaneGrey #TudorHistory #ExecutionSpeeches #TudorExecutions #Tudors #GeorgeBoleyn #CatherineHoward #TudorMonarchy #HistoricalMysteries #OnThisDay #HistoryYouTube #ClaireRidgway #GoodDeath #MedievalHistory #RoyalExecution #SixWivesOfHenryVIII

Salman Toor talks to Ben Luke about his influences—from writers to musicians, film-makers and, of course, other artists—and the cultural experiences that have shaped his life and work. Toor was born in Lahore, Pakistan, in 1983, and lives and works in New York. His paintings capture everyday moments in the lives of fictional young, queer, Brown men. Set within private and public environments, these scenes speak of a wealth of feelings and experiences, ranging from touching domestic intimacy and love, to communal solidarity, to societal precarity and violence. While abundantly concerned with contemporary life and identity, Salman's paintings are informed by a deep passion for historic art, both in Western and South Asian traditions. The result is a body of work of immense technical sensitivity and beauty, shot through with poignancy and wit. He reflects on the growing complexity of his references to the Western tradition of painting in relation to his subject matter. He discusses how the “mist and gaseousness” of a particular shade of green has helped him create particular moods and atmospheres in his work. He talks about playing with conventions in the depictions of certain types of bodies, and exploring and subverting orientalist and racist tropes. Among many other references, he recalls the early influence of Paul Delaroche's The Execution of Lady Jane Grey (1833) and Pablo Picasso's Blue Period, the enduring impact of Jean-Honoré Fragonard, whose sweetness is like “a cup of tea with five teaspoons”, and suggests that he enjoys painters who embark on “slightly crazy” transformations of academic painting traditions. He expresses his ongoing admiration for Anton Chekhov's short stories and discusses how Whitney Houston's music was important to him and his “chosen family” in his early years in New York. Plus, he gives insight into his life in the studio and answers our usual questions, including the ultimate: what is art for?Salman Toor: Wish Maker, Luhring Augustine Chelsea and Tribeca, New York, 1 May-21 June. Please note that this episode contains a contextualised homophobic slur in the title of a group of Salman Toor's works. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In early 1554 a rebellion against queen Mary I broke out over fears that her impending marriage to Philip II of Spain would plunge England into becoming nothing more than an extension of Spain. This rebellion has become known as Wyatt's rebellion, for one of its key architects was Thomas Wyatt the younger. The rebellion would end in failure, but what actually was it and who was involved, how serious was the threat against Queen Mary and why was its biggest casualty Lady Jane Grey, despite her not being remotely involved?

In 1553, the Tudors are only a few years away from colonizing America, but first they must determine which Sovereign shall lay claim to these looming trans-Atlantic discoveries.

Lady Jane Grey hit the headlines a couple of weeks ago when news broke that a portrait, quite possibly of Jane, painted from life had resurfaced. Today, I welcome Rachel Turnbull, Senior Collections Conservator in Fine Art for English Heritage onto the podcast. Rachel was the person at the very centre of this discovery and examination. She joins me to discuss the research, what new features from the portrait were discovered and how changes were made, likely long after the original painting was completed, to change the way the sitter is presented.

The Tragic Tale of Katherine Grey. On this day in Tudor history, 21st February 1568, Lady Katherine Grey was laid to rest. Born into royal blood, she was a cousin of Elizabeth I and the sister of Lady Jane Grey, the ill-fated ‘Nine Days' Queen.' But while Jane met the executioner's block, Katherine faced a different kind of sentence—imprisonment, heartbreak, and separation from the man she loved.   - A secret marriage… - An illegitimate heir… -  A queen's fury…   Why did Elizabeth I see her as such a threat?

Mary I & Elizabeth I   They were daughters of Henry VIII, England's first two crowned queens regnant, and two of the most formidable women in Tudor history. Yet while Mary I's reign lasted just five years, Elizabeth ruled for over 44 years, shaping what many consider a Golden Age.     - Both fought for their thrones—Mary against Lady Jane Grey, Elizabeth against Mary, Queen of Scots.   - Both built up England's navy, laying the groundwork for future triumphs.   - Both were married to the state—Mary to Catholicism and Philip of Spain, Elizabeth to England itself.   - Both could be merciful and ruthless—Mary executed Lady Jane Grey, Elizabeth executed Mary, Queen of Scots.   - Both had the famous Tudor temper!   But their differences defined their legacies…   - Mary was a devout Catholic, Elizabeth a pragmatic Protestant.   - Mary married a king, Elizabeth remained the Virgin Queen.   - Mary's reign is remembered for the Marian persecutions, while Elizabeth's is hailed as a Golden Age—but is that fair?     Did history unjustly overshadow Mary, or was Elizabeth truly England's greatest queen? Let's explore their fascinating stories—listen now!     #MaryI #ElizabethI #TudorHistory #OnThisDay #TudorQueens #BritishMonarchy #HistoryMatters

In today's episode, Minister Artie and Deputy Minister Anna dive into the fascinating yet often overlooked reign of Edward VI. Though his rule lasted just six years—cut short by his death at age 15—Edward left an indelible mark on England's history.As a devout Protestant, Edward spearheaded significant reforms, including the introduction of an English-language Bible—a move so controversial it sparked rebellion. Under his rule, England took major strides toward becoming a firmly Protestant nation. And let's not forget his dramatic decision to alter the line of succession, naming his cousin Lady Jane Grey as his heir to bypass his Catholic sister, Mary.But why was Edward so passionately Protestant? Who wielded real power while he was still a child? And what drove him to gamble with the crown's future?Join us as we uncover the answers to these questions and explore the brief but transformative reign of England's boy king.This episode is available to watch as a video on YouTube.The Ministry of History offers more than just podcast episodes!

What if Lady Jane Grey, the Nine Days Queen, had been born a boy—Lord John Grey? Would England's history have been completely rewritten? In 1553, the Protestant King Edward VI skipped over his Catholic sister Mary and named his cousin Lady Jane Grey as his successor. But imagine if Jane had been a male heir instead. Would Mary have still managed to rally support and claim the throne? A male Lord John Grey would have been far more acceptable to Tudor society, and it's likely he would have succeeded in becoming king. But what would that have meant for England's future? - Would England have become a Puritan state? - What would have happened to Mary Tudor? - Would Elizabeth I have ever taken the throne? In this fascinating alternate history, I explore how England's politics, religion, and culture might have changed if a Protestant King John II had ruled instead of Mary I. It's a "what if" scenario with huge implications. Let me know in the comments: Would King John have ushered in a Puritan regime? Or would civil unrest have toppled him?

Dr Helen Castor is a historian, author and broadcaster who is best known for her work on some of histories most fascinating women, from Eleanor of Aquitaine to Joan of Arc, Isabella of France to Lady Jane Grey, however, her most recent book, published only a few weeks ago breaks the mould, for in it she explores the life of two of medieval England's kings. The eagle and the hart, the tragedy of Richard ii and Henry iv is this book, a remarkable and highly detailed exploration of these very very different kings and how, as the title suggests, their lives and more accurately their reigns descended into tragedy. I am thrilled to welcome Helen onto the podcast today to discuss her book, this is a long episode folks, so buckle in as we hop out of the world of the Tudors and into that of the Plantagenets.

Get ready to transform into a ferret and an eagle with Andrew and Presley as they discuss this historical fiction romance fantasy comedy.All our Links: https://linktr.ee/seasononepodSeason Spoiler Synopsis: My Lady Jane is a 2024 Amazon Prime original series set in a fictionalized 16th-century England that follows Lady Jane Grey, a fiercely independent, well-read woman who is coerced into marrying Lord Guildford Dudley. Begrudgingly Jane marries Guildford who she later discovers is an Ethian, a human who can take animal form. Guildford struggles with his Ethianism, as he is unable to control his ability to change and unwillingly changes into a horse when the sun rises, and is freed from animal form when the sun sets. Jane is cousin to King Edward VI, who is first believed to be gravely ill and names Jane as successor to his throne. Princess Mary and Lord Seymour have been secretly poisoning Edward in order to kill him and place Mary in power. Mary and Seymour ramp up their plot to kill Edward which leads Edward to fall from a high window in a tower of the castle, and his disappearance. Mary and Seymour forge a will and attempt to make the court believe that will is legitimate, which names Mary as successor. The real will, which was taken by Princess Bess for safe-keeping, is given to one of the castle staff and is presented in court. The original will wins out due to the official stamp of the king sealing it. Jane is named Queen and discovers that Mary and Seymour colluded to murder Edward, leading to Mary attacking Jane and destroying proof of this truth. Edward comes to in a church realizing he was saved by Lady Margaret Beaufort, his great-grandmother. Edward is informed that he is one of a long line of Ethian English kings, and that Margaret aims to help him discover his animal form. Margaret wishes to make Edward an Ethian king who will exterminate all non-Ethians. Meanwhile Jane, newly queen, makes a declaration that division law will be terminated, and humans and Ethians will live in peace. This disturbs the nobility in England, who all leave and take their armies with them. Mary and Seymour gather support with the nobility to revert the pro-Ethian policy in the kingdom, and arrive to put Jane in chains. Mary and Seymour also catch Guildford and expose his secret, which means that both Jane and Guildford would be sentenced to death for being nobile and Ethian. At Jane and Guildford's execution, the Ethians come to their rescue, after being inspired and rallied by Edward to help restore him to the throne to rule for them in addition to humans. Jane and Guildford escape, but not before Jane leaps over the crowd and up to where Guildford is tied up. As the fire rises to consume them, Jane professes her love for Guildford, Guildford professes his love for Jane, and then makes himself a horse to break free from his ropes and carry Jane to safety. At the end, Jane and Guildford are seen embracing each other, discussing what to do next, Mary is still ruling England, and Princess Bess is secretly an Ethian.

The Lady Jane Grey was many things in her short life - a polyglot, a religious scholar, a young woman who approached the world with curiosity. She was also a pawn in the schemes of her much-less-intelligent father, and it resulted in her becoming Queen of England... for a moment.

Toronto film critic Nathalie Atkinson joins Alex Heeney to discuss their latest obsession -- Amazon Prime's swashbuckling fantasy series, My Lady Jane -- and why we can't stop thinking about it. From husbands that are sometimes horses, to intimacy coordination by Ita O'Brien (Normal People), to an incredible cast (Edward Bluemel!), the show is a whole lot of fun with impressive craft behind it. The limited series reimagines the story of Lady Jane Grey, the Tudor Queen who, at age 16, was queen for nine days. The show asks, what could have happened if Lady Jane lasted a little bit longer, had a whole lot of gumption, and also, uh…what if a bunch of people, named Ethians, could also transform into animals? The show is part romance, part adventure, part YA coming-of-ager, with an incredible supporting cast. >> Subscribe to our FREE newsletter for updates on the best new under-the-radar films and streaming theatre productions
