As the United Kingdom, the Commonwealth, and countries across the world are celebrationing Queen Elizabeth II's Platinum Jubilee, have a look back at her life and reign.
Throughout this month, every episode of Not Just the Tudors is honouring Queen Elizabeth II's Platinum Jubilee by focussing on some aspect of Queenship in the Early Modern period. In this first exploration, Professor Suzannah Lipscomb looks at Queens Consort - those wives of Kings so well-known to us - to whom we tend to ascribe a passive role. Today's guest Dr. Michelle Beer wants us to rethink that notion. Her work on Margaret Tudor, Queen of Scotland, and Catherine of Aragon suggests that Queens Consort also wielded power in ways that we have not recognised.For more Not Just The Tudors content, subscribe to our Tudor Tuesday newsletter here > If you'd like to learn even more, we have hundreds of history documentaries, ad-free podcasts and audiobooks at History Hit.

This year marks Queen Elizabeth II's Platinum Jubilee, her 70th year as Queen of the United Kingdom. As the world prepares to celebrate an icon, the British royal establishment is working quietly behind the scenes to prepare the stage for Prince Charles to replace his mother and become King. It's the moment he was destined for – and at 73, he's been waiting a long time. But as his moment approaches, so does widespread apprehension: Can Prince Charles fill his mother's shoes? Will the people accept him as king? Is there even a place for monarchy in our modern world? In Born to Rule, NBC's Keir Simmons talks to journalists and royal insiders who've followed Prince Charles for decades to help us understand the man who will be king.

This month marks Queen Elizabeth II's Platinum Jubilee—70 years on the British throne. We look at how much Britain has changed under her watch and compare her coronation with what we might expect at the next coronation in Britain. As Russia threatens to invade Ukraine, the Ukrainian Greek Catholic community remembers how much they were persecuted during the Soviet era. They are looking in vain for support from the pope. Why has he been conspicuously silent? As prices and inflation rise, and more and more of us are feeling the financial pinch, a great many people are experiencing anxiety, sleeplessness and other health problems. We end with a word of encouragement to take the time to enjoy an increasingly rare art in this digital age: sitting down with pen and paper, and writing a good ol' fashioned letter.
