Founded in 1945, TSP Engineering was primarily established to serve the iron and steel industries by manufacturing mining machinery, mine cars and ingot moulds. Now, the company located on Britain's Energy Coast in Workington delivers high-quality, innovative heavy engineering solutions to nuclear, oil and gas, defence, renewable energy and construction sectors. The company recently encountered a challenge with one of its nuclear and reactor engineering customers - this led the company to find its solution from Quickgrind. With a colossal shop floor of 20,000m², TSP has the facilities to handle some of the biggest engineering and steel fabrication projects in the UK and beyond – but when it came to finding the right cutting tool solution, the company opted for a solution from the Tewkesbury based cutting tool experts. TSP was met with a nuclear reactor challenge and what drew the company to Quickgrind was its ability to offer non-standard length carbide tooling that won't be found in catalogues or brochures. During an initial consultation, Lewis Straughton, the Production Manager of TSP Engineering, revealed the company had always had a problem finish milling slots because the tools could never push to the required length. In the past, TSP had tried high-speed steel end mills with flute lengths upwards of 220mm. However, they had issues achieving the required tolerances. To overcome this, TSP reverted to the chain boring method. The critical nuclear components required slots machined to a tolerance of +/-0.1mm at depths of 220mm. However, the existing tools were witnessing pushing-off problems as well as creating spindle issues. This was not acceptable for the machining of high-value components. Retaining the in-house machining of the £2.5m contract was of paramount importance for TSP and risking the scrapping and re-working of components worth more than £500,000 was not an option. After partnering with Quickgrind, the two companies worked closely to develop a cutting tool solution and a suitable machining strategy that could finish the slots to the high surface finish and tolerance requirements. By adopting a specialist solid carbide end mill from Quickgrind with a new toolholder, TSP could achieve the required surface finishes and tolerances whilst the exceptional quality of the Quickgrind tools delivered consistently high performance and service life. As a manufacturer that has immense pride in its quality and certifications, TSP is ISO: 9001, ISO: 3834 Part 2, ISO: 1090 at execution level 4, ISO: 14001 and ISO: 45001 certified. The company also claims to be the first in the world to achieve the ISO: 19443 standard. Not only did the Quickgrind long flute end mills resolve the issues of meeting the tight tolerances, evacuating swarf from the deep slots and eliminating the spindle issue – the tools also delivered astounding cycle time savings. The Quickgrind end mills reduced the 260-hour cycle time to just 16 hours, yielding cycle time reductions of 244 hours per component.

Tonight, we'll read “The Maiden of the Mist” or “Anne of Geierstein”, by Sir Walter Scott, published in 1829. It is set mainly in Switzerland, shortly after the Battle of Tewkesbury in the 1400s. This episode originally aired in January of 2021. In this story, two exiles are on a secret mission to the court of Charles the Bold, Duke of Burgundy, hoping to gain his help in regaining the English crown from Edward IV. The two Englishmen get into difficulties in the Swiss mountains. They meet Countess Anne and her family, who are involved in the politics of the newly independent Swiss Confederation and plan to confront Charles with complaints about his conduct towards the Swiss nation. This book is part of a long series called The Waverley Novels. For nearly a century, they were among the most popular and widely read novels in Europe. Because Scott did not publicly acknowledge authorship until later, the series takes its name from Waverley, the first novel of the series released. — read by 'V' — Sign up for Snoozecast+ to get expanded, ad-free access by going to snoozecast.com/plus!

John and Olly are on location. Join them as they journey around Warwick Castle and talk more about the Wars of the Roses. The chaos of Towton, the reign of Edward IV and the climax of Tewkesbury. 

In Shakespeare's in Henry IV, Part 2, Falstaff has the line: “his wit's as thick as Tewkesbury Mustard” (Act 2, Scene 4). Falstaff is describing his friend Ned Poins, but it presents the question of what was Tewkesbury Mustard? Turns out this particular mustard developed in a small town of England called Tewkesbury, and it was not only popular in Shakespeare's lifetime, but during the 17th century it was considered a staple condiment in kitchens of this time period. Amazingly, the mustard has not only survived the centuries but is still being made exactly the way it was for Shakespeare's lifetime right in Tewkesbury at the Tewkesbury Mustard Company. We are delighted to have Robin Ritchie who is founder and Mustard Master Emeritus at the Tewkesbury Mustard Company to share with us the history of this mustard, how it is made, and how you can enjoy some for yourself.

If you enjoy this podcast, consider buying me a coffee: https://adamstoner.com/support His body blue, no blood pressure to speak of, and no pulse to find, artist Andy Warhol was declared dead on arrival at Columbus Hospital in New York City – 4:51pm on June 3rd 1968 – having just been shot by a former colleague at his workshop, The Factory. Bleeding on the gurney, a senior doctor took a fleeting look at the corpse, peeling back an eyelid and watched as its pupil contracted in the bright emergency room lights. Andy Warhol wasn't dead. More culturally relevant to modern day, materialistic Christmases than Jesus himself, disciples of the king of consumerism gathered outside the hospital that night, Andy's resurrection happening within. A cardiac arrest on the operating table and 12 pints of blood later, Warhol's scarified body walked from the hospital alive. I tell you this because I've just finished reading The Andy Warhol Diaries and am about to finish Year of Wonder: Classical Music for Every Day by ex-BBC Radio 3 presenter Clemency Burton-Hill. Clemency's got a sequel out this December, Another Year of Wonder, which I've pre-ordered. On the subject of music, Paul McCartney's new double-volume coffee-table book – The Lyrics – is an intimate self-portrait in 154 songs, a fascinating trawl through the handwritten notes of the UK's greatest songwriter. I got that at the start of the month when I saw his Q&A at the Southbank Centre in London. Spread over pages 48 and 49 of the most recent edition of Science and Nature magazine, I write about something that world leaders overwhelmingly failed to grasp at COP26: the fragility of planet Earth. Despite their failure, it was lovely to see my writing published and now exist in the hands and homes of people across the country. That edition is still on newsstands if you've not been able to pick up your copy yet. On Audible I've been listening to Conscious: A Brief Guide to the Fundamental Mystery of the Mind by Annaka Harris, Your Brain Is a Time Machine: The Neuroscience and Physics of Time by Dean Buonomano, and Transcend by Scott Barry Kaufman. I've also been listening to the tonnes of great music that's come out this month. HalfNoise's new album, Motif, is a blend of classical and jazz and a perfect easy evening listen. ABBA's new album shot straight to number one and it's no surprise why. Adele's new album is undoubtedly fantastic too. I was gifted a gorgeous Voyager Golden Record three-LP box-set from Ozma Records and also received a signed copy of Christopher Tin's Calling All Dawns on vinyl this month. For me, albums are a snapshot of the time in which they were recorded, something the Voyager record captures so poignantly and Adele clearly feels too; why else would you title each album your age? That's why I feel strongly about Taylor Swift's re-recording of her albums. Red (Taylor's Version) came out earlier in the month and although I sympathise with the reasons behind its re-release, there's something wholly inauthentic about a soon-to-be 32 year old re-releasing songs written by a 22 year old Swift. As she catches up with her present day work, I daresay I'll feel differently. That said, the album is just as fantastic as the first time around and like Paul McCartney's book, I love gems from the archive. I've had such a lovely month getting out-and-about too. Working on a big project I'll be able to tell you more about in the new year, I was at the Royal Observatory Greenwich in mid-November. I also visited We The Curious in Bristol yesterday for more of the same. Either my taste in films is terrible or critics are stuffy people whose self-importance impedes their judgement. The reviews for House of Gucci are terrible; I saw it in the cinema on Friday and thoroughly enjoyed it. I reckon it's the second of those two things. I was invited to hear the Cotswold Male Voice Choir perform in Cheltenham on Saturday and even took a walk around Westonbirt Arboretum a few days ago on a press preview of their Enchanted Christmas trail. I was also invited to the Tewkesbury Festival of Lights at the start of the month, a beautiful sound and light show telling the story of Tewkesbury through the lens of its 900 year old Abbey. That's sort of what I'm trying to do with these updates; place my story – what I've been doing, reading, watching, and listening to – within the much wider context in which we all live our otherwise individual lives. I think that's also what makes religion so fascinating, I'm not a religious person (though I did have tea with the Bishop of Tewkesbury in the Reverend's home) but I do love the theatrics of it; cathedrals and churches and choirs and the feeling of belonging to something bigger than yourself, a grander story. Today's the first day of December and the countdown to Christmas and the New Year is on. Assisting me are advent calendars from Yankee Candles and T2 Tea. It won't be long before we pop up our tree also; we've decorated ours in basically the same style for as long as I can remember, only ever replacing and adding ornaments here-and-there. I've also got a smaller tree from Bloom & Wild. It comes through your letterbox, is taking pride of place atop a locker I got from Mustard, and with its roots still intact, you can even plant it on afterwards! I did so last in 2019; it's still growing strong. In 1964, a few years prior to Andy's shooting, he had his photo taken in front of a bare Christmas tree, a blue spruce, stripped of all decoration. The image is anathema to everything we know about Warhol his colourful pop art so I emailed the The Andy Warhol Museum on a quest to find out more about it. Matt Gray, manager of the archives, replied. The photo is a design submission for an exhibit at the headquarters of Hallmark Cards. His decision to submit an empty tree wasn't a publicity stunt or a critical read on culture but was a very subversive and deliberate artistic decision. […] He was very aware that the other participants in the show were stuffy and traditional and this was a chance to emphasize his new and rebellious image. […] The fact that he was given the largest tree and a prominent location [in the show] confirms he was on to something. Warhol's tree was left out of the cheery full-colour spread that filled Ladies' Home Journal that year and became known as his ‘anti-Christmas tree', but neither Matt or I think that was his intention… Warhol's tree captures precisely what makes Christmas so special because whether you're a fan of the theatrics of religion or of commercialism, this time is a blank canvas to decorate as you see fit. There is no right or wrong way to celebrate the holidays. Whether you spend this time surrounded by family, binge-eating food or in quiet contemplation of the year just gone, I hope you enjoy it. Here's how Warhol spent his final Christmas in 1986: I went to the church of Heavenly Rest to pass out Interviews [his magazine] and feed the poor. Got a lot of calls to go to Christmas parties but I just decided to stay in and I loved it. Merry Christmas. You'll next hear from me on December 31st 2021.

Usual Ed Talks form is to chat with someone industry based – different this time as Ed talks to Iain, a Viewber based in the Gloucester area. The perfect chance to dive a little deeper into what being a Viewber is really like, the sort of people who are carrying out various property appointments on behalf of our clients and how these appointments happen – what better way than to bring a REAL Viewber onto the show?! Before we begin, this statement in particular means a lot, as Iain says “Viewber helped me with headspace during Covid as everything else dropped off.” Not only has Viewber proved to be helpful for our clients during this tricky period when it comes to keeping businesses running, but it has also helped our Viewbers when it comes to mental health and providing something to focus on – its great to be able to help. So, who is Iain the Viewber? Iain is based in the Gloucester area and covers Cheltenham, Tewkesbury, Stroud, Forest of Dean and Swindon – even as far as North Bristol, Worcester and Hereford.Iain has an impressive background as an actor, working in live TV, website design and management – he's even been a life-guard! It's safe to say that Iain is a very self-motivated individual who likes to mix it up. The whole point is that Viewber appointments fit into a busy lifestyle, around the Viewbers' schedule - a perfect role for Iain. Now he's completed his 200th appointment since 2019 there is no stopping him! Iain is just one of your local Viewbers – vetted, trained, professional and based anywhere the UK, ready to help with a variety of property needs. A fantastic episode, with lots of ‘behind the scenes' insight.

The series of conflicts known as the Wars of the Roses tore through fifteenth-century England: the houses of Lancaster and York and their supporters fought over notions of good governance and the right to wear the crown, while vast swathes of the population took up arms in rebellion or on the battlefield, or lived in fear of rampaging armies. What can historians deduce about popular involvement in the Wars, including in key events such as the Battle of Towton (1461)? How can the treatment of prisoners and the battlefield dead at the battles of Wakefield (1460) and Tewkesbury (1471) reveal concepts of chivalry and military ethics? And how did those in power – from Edward IV, to Margaret of Anjou and Richard III – seek to manage popular fears? In this podcast, Dr Gordon McKelvie discusses his research on these topics with Dr Sophie Ambler, Deputy Director of the Centre for War and Diplomacy. Dr Gordon McKelvie is Senior Lecturer in Medieval History at the University of Winchester, where he is also a convenor for the Centre for Medieval and Renaissance Research. He has worked extensively on political society and warfare in England in the long fifteenth century. Following various journal articles and chapters, his first book was published with Boydell and Brewer in 2020: Bastard Feudalism, English Society and the Law: The Statutes of Livery, 1390 to 1520. This examines the effectiveness of new laws on social relations and how ‘bastard feudal' ties facilitated many of the rebellions and acts of noble violence in the long fifteenth century. Dr McKelvie's new research considers both the role of chivalry and martial ethics in the Wars, and the importance of managing popular emotions – principally fear and hatred – for use as weapons of military strategy. Dr McKelvie's book Bastard Feudalism, English Society and the Law: The Statutes of Livery, 1390 to 1520 is available from Boydell and Brewer. You can learn more about this research in his blog for the Boydell and Brewer website. In a recent article for The Conversation, marking the 550th anniversary of the Battle of Tewkesbury, Dr McKelvie discusses: ‘Wars of the Roses: How the French meddled in this very English conflict'.

On this day in Tudor history, 6th May 1471, Edmund Beaufort was executed at Tewkesbury following the Lancastrian defeat at the Battle of Tewkesbury during the Wars of the Roses. How did he come to be executed when he was in sanctuary, and why was this the end of the Beaufort line? What did this mean for the Lancastrians?

We're Not Exactly Sure What A Tewkesbury Mustard Is, But Apparently It's An Insult!? Welcome to April 23, 2021 on the National Day Calendar. Today we celebrate having a way with words and the simple pleasures of life.  More after the break. Anna: Good morrow, sir Anderson. Prithee, answer me honestly: How art thou on this glorious Friday? Marlo: What are you talking about? John: We went through this last year too, Marlo. It's National Talk Like Shakespeare Day. Just play along. We'll get through this together. Marlo: Okay, Anna. Get it out of your system. Anna: Jest upon me, scoundrel. Thy wit's as thick as a Tewkesbury mustard. Marlo: John, I have no idea what any of this means. John: Just nod and try not to make any big movements.  Anna: You scullion! You rampallian! You fustilarian! We have all heard the phrase that life is no picnic, but with Spring in the air it's time to rethink that. From the French word for piquenique, picnic means a meal eaten outdoors.  This meal hearkens back to mid-18th-century al fresco French dining when all you needed was a bottle of wine, a loaf of bread, some cheese and fruit and you could have a party under the sky.  These days we could all use an impromptu celebration as we take advantage of the warmer weather with our family and friends.  Anytime you can get outside, your mood will automatically lift, and for some reason food always tastes better in the great outdoors.  Don't live close to a park? No problem.  Your own backyard will do. And if the weather is not quite picture perfect, a blanket on the living room floor is just fine.  This casual meal invites conversation, relaxation, eating with your fingers.  What a perfect recipe for connecting with those you love.  On National Picnic Day spread a blanket out and find your way back to the simple pleasures in life.  I'm Anna Devere and I'm Marlo Anderson.  Thanks for joining us as we Celebrate Every Day.

Today, we are gonna talk about...Ancient sausage recipes, cooking techniques and the history of sausage!  Everyone's different, but we all love sausages!Greeks eat it, Italians eat, Germans, Spanish, Polish British, Portuguese ...There is, even, a sausage party in Taiwan Taipei...There are sausages in China, the "Lap Cheong" a smoked pork sausage, sometimes flavoured with rose water, or rice wine.... The "Yun Chang" a duck liver sausage...Greeks eat "loukanika" that as ever other culture has ,they too have plenty of different flavours and varieties, but two prominent ones are pork meat sausages mixed with orange peel and fennel or smoked pork and leek sausages...One of the most famous regions in antiquity for its smoked sausages, was a region in southern Italy near to what we call the "heel" of italy. The area was Lucania the land of the Lucani people...They were probably making the best smoked sausages in Italy and eastern mediterranean...Hence the ancient and modern name in Greek for sausage is loukaniko/ loukanika in plural. The method of making the smoked sausages was brought to Rome possibly by the soldiers of the late Roman republic who had served in Southern Italy. Apicius gives us the first surviving written recipe for smoked sausages and the word is first recorded in Greek in a 4th century CE papyri, and in the joke book Philogelos. (The oldest existing collection of jokes) The world is familiar today form end to end of the Mediterranean and far beyond. Southern Italy, Greece, in Cyprus, in Bulgaria, In Turkey we have sutzuk...In Portugal and Brazil as "linguica", and in Spain as "Longaniza"...And this is the magic that is almost in every culture; the sausages had to be salted, smoked , preserved, here we have loads of different techniques, but very similar yet unique techniques on how to make sausages. Back to ancient Greece and Rome. We have the book of Apicius - a recipe book that survives to this day from the 1st century CE - that makes it roughly 2000 years old. A book written by a the Roman Marcus Gavius Apicius a gourmet and lover of luxury - or at least the collection of recipes is attributed to him...! It includes a lot of recipes and techniques and ingredients found in ancient Greece too and they were common to both cultures too! We can imagine the Roman soldiers, mingling with the local population, or getting to know the local ladies, and getting drunk with the local wine, while eating the famous smoked sausages and then brought back to Rome the technique on how do them. Lucanicae were traditionally smoked above the fireplace and not otherwise cook. So cooks and wives will hang them for 2-3 days near the fireplace and with the fire burning more or less continuously - as people needed to heat their homes and cook too - the sausages will dry and simultaneously get infused with the smoke from the family hearth.This lovely recipe of course doesn't contain enough quantities and enough detailed instructions to tell the modern cook how do to it. Luckily many before me, and including me have attempted it a few times and managed to write down some quantities for the ingredients which will help you recreate the recipe at home! BONUS sausage knowledge!Polony sausage  A soft-textured English large smoked sausage typically made of pork and beef. Polony is usually sold encased in a vividly hued skin of either orange or red. Polony sausage is similar to bologna so its name suggests that “polony” might have been brought from “Bologna,” the Italian city known for this style of sausage. Typically sliced and served cold. I'll post a picture below ...and Tewksbury Mustard! What better condiment for a sausage than mustard huh? According to history myth and legend: "Tewkesbury Mustard Balls covered in gold leaf were presented to Henry VIII when he visited Tewkesbury in 1535. A condiment fit for a king!Ancient Music composed by Pavlos Kapralos, except from "Epitaph of Seikilos" the oldest surviving fragment of music from the ancient world, performed by Pavlos Kapralos.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/the-delicious-legacy.

The Wars of the Roses were a series of English civil wars for control of the throne of England fought between supporters of two rival cadet branches of the royal House of Plantagenet: the House of Lancaster, associated with the Red Rose of Lancaster, and the House of York, whose symbol was the White Rose of York. Eventually, the wars eliminated the male lines of both families. The conflict lasted through many sporadic episodes between 1455 and 1487, but there was related fighting before and after this period between the parties. The power struggle ignited around social and financial troubles following the Hundred Years' War, unfolding the structural problems of bastard feudalism, combined with the mental infirmity and weak rule of King Henry VI which revived interest in the House of York's claim to the throne by Richard of York. Historians disagree on which of these factors was the main reason for the wars. With the Duke of York's death in 1460, the claim transferred to his heir, Edward. After a series of Yorkist victories from January–February 1461, Edward claimed the throne on 4 March 1461, and the last serious Lancastrian resistance ended at the decisive Battle of Towton. Edward was thus unopposed as the first Yorkist king of England, as Edward IV. Resistance smoldered in the North of England until 1464, but the early part of his reign remained relatively peaceful. A new phase of the wars broke out in 1469 after the Earl of Warwick, the most powerful noble in the country, withdrew his support for Edward and threw it behind the Lancastrian cause. Fortunes changed many times as the Yorkist and Lancastrian forces exchanged victories throughout 1469–70 (and Edward was even captured for a time in 1469). When Edward fled to Flanders in 1470, Henry VI was re-installed as king on 3 October 1470, but his resumption of rule was short lived, and he was deposed again following the defeat of his forces at the Battle of Tewkesbury, and on 21 May 1471, Edward entered London unopposed, resumed the throne, and probably had Henry killed that same day. With all significant Lancastrian leaders now banished or killed, Edward ruled unopposed until his sudden death in 1483. His 12-year-old son reigned for 78 days as Edward V. He was then deposed by his uncle, Edward IV's brother Richard, who became Richard III. The ascension of Richard III occurred under a cloud of controversy, and shortly after assuming the throne, the wars sparked anew with Buckingham's rebellion, as many die-hard Yorkists abandoned Richard to join Lancastrians. While the rebellions lacked much central coordination, in the chaos the exiled Henry Tudor, son of Henry VI's half-brother Edmund Earl of Richmond, and the leader of the Lancastrian cause, returned to the country from exile in Brittany at the head of an army of combined Breton and English forces. Richard avoided direct conflict with Henry until the Battle of Bosworth Field on 22 August 1485. After Richard III was killed and his forces defeated at Bosworth Field, Henry assumed the throne as Henry VII and married Elizabeth of York, the eldest daughter and heir of Edward IV, thereby uniting the two claims. The House of Tudor ruled the Kingdom of England until 1603, with the death of Elizabeth I, granddaughter of Henry VII and Elizabeth of York. Shortly after Henry took the throne, the Earl of Lincoln, a Yorkist sympathizer, put forward Lambert Simnel as an impostor Edward Plantagenet, a potential claimant to the throne. Lincoln's forces were defeated, and he was killed at the Battle of Stoke Field on 16 June 1487, bringing a close to the Wars of the Roses. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/thehistoryexpress/support

When Edward fled to Flanders in 1470, Henry VI was re-installed as king on 3 October 1470, but his resumption of rule was short lived, and he was deposed again following the defeat of his forces at the Battle of Tewkesbury, and on 21 May 1471, Edward entered London unopposed, resumed the throne, and probably had Henry killed that same day. With all significant Lancastrian leaders now banished or killed, Edward ruled unopposed until his sudden death in 1483. His 12-year-old son reigned for 78 days as Edward V. He was then deposed by his uncle, Edward IV's brother Richard, who became Richard III. The ascension of Richard III occurred under a cloud of controversy, and shortly after assuming the throne, the wars sparked anew with Buckingham's rebellion, as many die-hard Yorkists abandoned Richard to join Lancastrians. While the rebellions lacked much central coordination, in the chaos the exiled Henry Tudor, son of Henry VI's half-brother Edmund Earl of Richmond, and the leader of the Lancastrian cause, returned to the country from exile in Brittany at the head of an army of combined Breton and English forces. Richard avoided direct conflict with Henry until the Battle of Bosworth Field on 22 August 1485. After Richard III was killed and his forces defeated at Bosworth Field, Henry assumed the throne as Henry VII and married Elizabeth of York, the eldest daughter and heir of Edward IV, thereby uniting the two claims. The House of Tudor ruled the Kingdom of England until 1603, with the death of Elizabeth I, granddaughter of Henry VII and Elizabeth of York. Shortly after Henry took the throne, the Earl of Lincoln, a Yorkist sympathizer, put forward Lambert Simnel as an impostor Edward Plantagenet, a potential claimant to the throne. Lincoln's forces were defeated, and he was killed at the Battle of Stoke Field on 16 June 1487, bringing a close to the Wars of the Roses. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/thehistoryexpress/support

The Wars of the Roses were a series of English civil wars for control of the throne of England fought between supporters of two rival cadet branches of the royal House of Plantagenet: the House of Lancaster, associated with the Red Rose of Lancaster, and the House of York, whose symbol was the White Rose of York. Eventually, the wars eliminated the male lines of both families. The conflict lasted through many sporadic episodes between 1455 and 1487, but there was related fighting before and after this period between the parties. The power struggle ignited around social and financial troubles following the Hundred Years' War, unfolding the structural problems of bastard feudalism, combined with the mental infirmity and weak rule of King Henry VI which revived interest in the House of York's claim to the throne by Richard of York. Historians disagree on which of these factors was the main reason for the wars. With the Duke of York's death in 1460, the claim transferred to his heir, Edward. After a series of Yorkist victories from January–February 1461, Edward claimed the throne on 4 March 1461, and the last serious Lancastrian resistance ended at the decisive Battle of Towton. Edward was thus unopposed as the first Yorkist king of England, as Edward IV. Resistance smoldered in the North of England until 1464, but the early part of his reign remained relatively peaceful. A new phase of the wars broke out in 1469 after the Earl of Warwick, the most powerful noble in the country, withdrew his support for Edward and threw it behind the Lancastrian cause. Fortunes changed many times as the Yorkist and Lancastrian forces exchanged victories throughout 1469–70 (and Edward was even captured for a time in 1469).
