Right trusty and well beloved, we greet you well!

On the 6th December 1421 a baby boy is born in Windsor Castle…his parents are Catherine of Valois and Henry V ..this boy would be a crowned king of England as well a crowned king of France, the only one to ever achieve this honour. Sadly, he would come to lose both his crowns and his life.

Henry VI, as he became, is often blamed to be the cause of the Wars of the Roses that rattled England in the middle of the 15th century.

The historian Lauren Johnson takes a more sympathetic approach.

Let’s talk to her about her book on Henry, called The Shadow King;

published by Head of Zeus (UK) and Pegasus (USA).

Many people know the Hundred Years’ War, and almost everyone in the English speaking world has heard of the Battle of Agincourt, but not many would be familiar with the The Battle of Baugé which was fought on the 22nd March 1421 between the English and the Franco-Scottish forces in the territory of Baugé in France. Let’s ask Callum Watson more about this conflict. Callum works at the site of the Battle of Bannockburn and who recently released a book on the topic with Pen & Sword Publishing.

Straight Acting: The Many Queer Lives of William Shakespeare with Will Tosh 1:17:13

cách đây 10 ngày trước1:17:13

1:17:13

Welcome to season SEVEN of our podcast! Everybody knows Shakespeare. However, perhaps not as well known to most is that beneath the surface, much of Shakespeare’s work surrounds ideas of gender and queerness. Many of the plays are concerned with cross-dressing, gender fluidity, and same-sex friendships that many scholars have interpreted to be much more. Drawing inspiration from homoerotic writers and subject matter of the time, We can assume that Shakespeare knew his audience were sexually diverse. The question remains, was he or wasn’t he? The answer is more complicated than you think. Today we welcome, Will Tosh, head of research at Shakespeare’s Globe, London. Will is a scholar of early modern literature and culture, a dramaturg for Renaissance classics and new plays and an historical adviser for television and radio. He is here to talk about his latest book, STRAIGHT ACTING: THE MANY QUEER LIVES OF WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE, released by Sceptre Publishing. And let me introduce our new guest host, Neil Cameron . A RADA trained actor, Neil is no stranger to Shakespeare. His stage credits include Hamlet in Hamlet, and more recently featured in Macbeth at the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse.

The Royal What-Ifs: We Know Not What We May Be... 35:39

Welcome to our Royal Romance season. On this episode, we’ll be talking about Royal Pairs that never got together. The couples in question were considered by the powers that be, or they took a fancy to each other, but they either weren’t allowed to follow through with their plans, or fate decided otherwise. We’re looking at four such couples today, Richard III & Isabella of Castile , George I & Queen Anne , Emperor Alexander II of Russia and Queen Victoria , And finally, Prince Eddy a.k.a. Prince Albert Victor, Duke of Clarence and Avondale & Empress Alexandra . It is always curious to ponder how different history would be if certain events had developed differently. To talk of these would-be couples, as well as touch upon the alternative history that we never got to know, we have historians Chris Riley and Catherine Curzon.

On this episode, we’ll be talking about Royal Couples who faced revolutions and regime changes in their countries. Did love survive the turmoil? Was the throne lost forever? If they didn’t love each other, could the outcome have been different?

On this, the first episode of our Valentines series of 2025, we’re focussing on the Iconic Power Couples of the royal circle. Let’s take a look at three couples: Eleanor of Aquitaine & Henry II of England , Eleanor of Castile & Edward I and Isabel of Castile & Fernando of Aragon . To help us understand these couples better, we've enlisted Sharon Bennett Connolly and Heather R Darsie. Sharon Bennett Connolly has written many books about medieval women, let’s ask her about the two Eleanor couples. Heather R Darsie has just finished her Katharine of Aragon book, which is convenient, because we’ll be talking about Kat's parents.
