In his Christmas message, King Charles the Third invoked wartime spirit and urged communities to pull together in an increasingly divided world, saying, “With the great diversity of our communities we can find the strength to ensure that right triumphs over wrong.”The address was recorded in Westminster Abbey, marking the second consecutive year the King has delivered his message away from a royal residence. Speaking from the medieval Lady Chapel, he reflected on the 80th anniversaries of VE Day and VJ Day and praised the courage and sacrifice of the wartime generation.The King also highlighted acts of “spontaneous bravery” in recent emergencies, including the Bondi Beach attack in Australia, and spoke of the importance of faith leaders working together, referencing his prayer alongside Pope Leo during a Vatican visit. A Ukrainian choir performed a carol during the broadcast, underscoring the King's continued support for Ukraine.Quoting T. S. Eliot, the King called for calm and reflection as “our world seems to spin ever faster,” with aides suggesting the message alluded to the impact of new technologies and the idea of a digital detox.The broadcast avoided personal matters, including the King's health and his brother Andrew. Instead, it focused on the working royals, with footage of Prince William and Catherine, and images of Prince George visiting a homelessness charity for the first time.The message concluded with a reflection on the Christmas story as one of peace, reconciliation, and compassion, which the King described as “a prayer for our times.”Hear our new show "Crown and Controversy: Prince Andrew" here.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.

Royal Carols: Together at Christmas returns to ITV as the Princess of Wales hosts the festive service at Westminster Abbey for the fifth year, with performances and readings celebrating love, compassion and community.We also explore why the Royal Family traditionally opens Christmas presents on Christmas Eve, tracing the custom back to German royal influences and examining claims that the tradition may not survive a future reign under William and Kate.Plus, the King's Christmas message enters the virtual reality age, allowing viewers to watch the broadcast in immersive settings while continuing a tradition that dates back more than ninety years.After the break, claims resurface about an awkward moment between Princess Eugenie and Kate during the two thousand eleven Sandringham church walk, and Channel Four prepares to air Jimmy Kimmel's alternative Christmas message, focusing on free speech, Donald Trump's presidency, and the role of satire during turbulent political times.Hear our new show "Crown and Controversy: Prince Andrew" here.Check out "Palace Intrigue Presents: King WIlliam" here.

George Frideric Handel (1685-1759) was a German-British Baroque composer. His most famous work, the 1742 oratorio Messiah with its "Hallelujah" chorus, is among the most popular works in choral music.

Meghan has finally managed to get a private letter to her father after days of trying to reach him, with her team accusing the Daily Mail of making discreet contact nearly impossible. An Express columnist criticises the email approach, calling it a “box-ticking exercise” while revisiting the long-running tensions inside the Markle family. Harry and Meghan also release a statement praising Australia's ban on under-sixteens using social media, saying the move protects children but doesn't solve tech's deeper problems.

Meghan Markle's outreach to her father turned into a weekend of whiplash after her team first dismissed reports as “a complete fabrication,” then later confirmed she had contacted Thomas Markle following news of his emergency surgery. Samantha Markle weighed in from the sidelines, urging the Sussexes to step up with real support, while a Parade profile reminded the world the couple's estimated worth sits around $60 million.Meanwhile, the Princess of Wales delivered the holiday moment of the season with her fifth annual Together at Christmas carol service at Westminster Abbey. Catherine greeted performers including Kate Winslet and Eugene Levy, welcomed William and the children in coordinating navy and black, and presided over an evening celebrating kindness and community.Deep Crown explains why Charles' absence wasn't a snub but a strategic choice to let Catherine's signature event shine, even as Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie sent supportive words from afar.

The Wars of the Roses began their final spasm, and in this chapter we explore how Richard, Duke of Gloucester, Lord Protector of England, sitting in the mansion of a rich London Grocer near Bishopsgate, would, over a series of a few weeks, turn into Richard III, King of England. But more than the traditional narrative, it is an exploration of London in those weeks- what did they hear, what did they see, and above all, how did they respond. From mobs pouring into Westminster Abbey, to a significant moment of silence in the Guildhall, from crowds listening in stunned silence around St Paul's Cross, to cheering the coronation, London witnessed and partook in all events. How loyal were they to this man? Were they indeed, as Shakespeare later called them, his ‘duteous citizens'? Cover contains a detail of The Princes in the Tower by John Everett Millais (1878).

On Armistice Day, we bring you an episode of Rosebud which opens at the Garden of Remembrance at Westminster Abbey, where Gyles meets veteran and double amputee turned skydiver Al Hodgson. We then take you to Salisbury, and an interview with Sir Nicholas Soames, himself a former soldier who later became a longstanding Conservative member of parliament, recorded live at Godolphin School in aid of the Edward Heath Charitable Foundation. Sir Nicholas talks to Gyles about his remarkable family: his grandfather was Sir Winston Churchill. We hear what Churchill was like as a grandfather and family man, about his unusual daily routine, and about his immense courage. We hear about Clementine Churchill, and about Sir Nicholas's parents - Christopher and Mary Soames, and their distinguished careers. This is a fascinating episode about a great family who were so central to the history of Britain in the twentieth century. Sir Edward Heath's former home in Salisbury Cathedral Close, Arundells, is open to the public and is well worth a visit. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

At Prince Philip's memorial service in March 2022, the Queen shocked royal watchers by arriving arm-in-arm with Prince Andrew, her disgraced son who had just weeks earlier settled a U.S. civil case with Virginia Giuffre over sexual-assault allegations tied to Jeffrey Epstein. The image of the monarch publicly escorted by Andrew into Westminster Abbey — in front of cameras and global audiences — was seen as a deliberate act of endorsement. It came at a moment when the rest of the Royal Family had carefully distanced themselves from him, making the Queen's decision feel tone-deaf and defiant in the face of widespread disgust.The optics were brutal. To much of the public, it looked as if the Queen was rehabilitating Andrew's image and signaling royal forgiveness before the dust had even settled on his legal disgrace. Critics said it undercut the monarchy's message of integrity and accountability, turning what was meant to be a solemn tribute to Prince Philip into a PR disaster. Commentators described it as a “misjudged show of support,” arguing that the Queen, perhaps out of maternal loyalty, had allowed personal sentiment to eclipse public perception — and in doing so, reignited outrage over Andrew's continued presence at royal events.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

fWotD Episode 3109: Hensley Henson Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Saturday, 8 November 2025, is Hensley Henson.Herbert Hensley Henson (8 November 1863 – 27 September 1947) was an English Anglican cleric, scholar and polemicist. He was Bishop of Hereford from 1918 to 1920 and Bishop of Durham from 1920 to 1939.Henson's father was a devout follower of the Christian sect the Plymouth Brethren and disapproved of schools. Henson was not allowed to go to school until he was fourteen, and was largely self-educated. He was admitted to the University of Oxford, and gained a first-class degree in 1884. In the same year he was elected as a fellow of All Souls College, Oxford, and began to make a reputation as a speaker. He was ordained priest in 1888.Feeling a vocation to minister to the urban poor, Henson served in the East End of London and Barking before becoming chaplain of a 12th-century hospice in Ilford in 1895. In 1900 he was appointed to the prominent post of rector of St Margaret's, Westminster, and canon of Westminster Abbey. While there, and subsequently as Dean of Durham (1913–1918), he wrote prolifically and sometimes controversially. He was tolerant of a wide range of theological views; because of this some members of the Anglo-Catholic wing of the Church of England accused him of heresy and sought unsuccessfully to block his appointment as Bishop of Hereford in 1917.In 1920 after two years in the largely rural diocese of Hereford, Henson returned to Durham in the industrial north-east of England as its bishop. The area was badly affected by an economic depression. Henson was opposed to strikes, trade unions and socialism, and for a time his outspoken denunciation of them made him unpopular in the diocese. Some of his opinions changed radically during his career: at first a strong advocate of the Church of England's continued establishment as the country's official church, he came to believe that politicians could not be trusted to legislate properly on ecclesiastical matters, and he espoused the cause of disestablishment. He campaigned against prohibition, the exploitation of foreign workers by British companies, and fascist and Nazi aggression. He supported reform of the divorce laws, the controversial 1928 revision of the Book of Common Prayer, and ecumenism.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:35 UTC on Saturday, 8 November 2025.For the full current version of the article, see Hensley Henson on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm generative Ayanda.

In this episode we talk to RAF veteran and writer John Nichol about his book “The Unknown Warrior”. After the hardback version of the book sold so well it has now been published in paperback. We discuss how remembrance has changed over the last 105 years and I read sections of his book following the final journey of the warrior from the battlefield to Westminster Abbey. We also listen to the words of a blinded soldier who was at the ceremony in November 1920. What did it mean to him?

In February 2021, Prince Andrew's birthday still carried faint traces of royal recognition, though the tone was already subdued. The bells at Westminster Abbey were initially scheduled to ring for him, a tradition usually reserved for senior royals, though public backlash quickly followed given his ongoing exile from royal duties. While his family reportedly marked the day privately, the UK government had already stopped requiring official buildings to fly the Union Flag in his honour — a quiet but telling sign of his fading royal stature. Even with some ceremonial remnants, the mood around his 61st birthday was one of awkward restraint rather than celebration.By February 2022, the contrast could not have been sharper. Amid mounting public anger and the fallout from his legal settlement with Virginia Giuffre, his 62nd birthday passed with no royal fanfare, no public tributes, and certainly no bells ringing. Councils and institutions across Britain declined to fly the flag, and even within the royal household, his day was reportedly marked in muted isolation. Once a senior member of the monarchy celebrated with pomp and protocol, Andrew had become a symbol of disgrace, spending his birthday largely out of sight — a living reminder of how far a prince can fall when reputation collapses faster than privilege can shield it.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

London Calling gets ambushed by events – from Dick Cheney's death to a hawk called Breeze patrolling Lincoln's Inn. A day of coincidences, literary echoes and London surprises, wrapped up with Francis Beaumont's poem On the Tombs in Westminster Abbey. Proof, if ever you needed it, that London never stops writing the script.

October marks the month of Edwardtide – a series of celebrations commemorating St Edward the Confessor, the King that ruled England in the 11th century for over two decades. Nowadays, he is remembered for three reasons: as one of the last Anglo-Saxon monarchs, for commissioning Westminster Abbey and for being the only English King canonised by a Pope. But does the historical record justify the cult of St Edward? Professor Tom Licence from the University of East Anglia joins Damian Thompson to discuss.Produced by Patrick Gibbons.Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.

Episode 185:For today's guest episode it's a warm welcome to the podcast for Christine and Jonathan Hainsworth, co-authors of the recently published book ‘The Shakespeare Ladies Club'.Their book explores the lives of four ladies who were crucial in ensuring the original work of Shakespeare was not forgotten in the 18th Century and beyond. In 1736, these three ladies of quality, two from the aristocracy and one a writer who ran a stationery shop, formed the ‘Shakespeare Ladies Club'. All three were so enraptured by the plays of William Shakespeare that they met to read and discuss his them and his genius. Not content with this, they used their power and influence to campaign for a statue of their literary idol to be placed in Westminster Abbey. They were successful in that endeavour, but their role in these achievements has never been properly recognised. Along with other scholars Christine and Johnathn's book is part of the process of putting that right. It is a very entertaining and informative read that I thoroughly enjoyed as I hope you will our conversation with just a taster of some of the details Christine and Jonathan have revealed.Christine and Jonathan Hainsworth live in Adelaide, South Australia and have a passion for historical investigation and challenging the 'conventional wisdom' regarding famous historical subjects.Christine spent several decades working for the Australian government in social services. Her work on a program to re-connect lone parents with training, education and employment opportunities gave her a unique insight into family and societal challenges.Jonathan was educated in Britain and Australia and has over thirty years of experience as a high school teacher of Modern and Ancient History, and English Literature. He is a graduate of The University of Adelaide and the University of South Australia.Link to Christine and Jonathan's website: https://hainsworthwardagius.comLink to The Shakespeare Ladies Club on Amberley Publishing: https://www.amberley-books.comLink to The Shakespeare Ladies Club on Amazon UK: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Shakespeare-Ladies-Club-Forgotten-Rescued/dp/1398127442/ref=sr_1_1?Support the podcast at:www.thehistoryofeuropeantheatre.comwww.patreon.com/thoetpwww.ko-fi.com/thoetp Hosted on Acast.
