Tracy Borman is absolutely correct... the fact Elizabeth never carried through with completing Henry VIII's opulent toumb and left him under that slab in that church no one can ever remember. 😂

Carol you bring wonderful guests and I hope your channel grows. You deserve it. ... Wondering if you use Shorts to help promo and if you put some site visits up for people to see CASTLES on your channel. Just ideas. Americana LOVE castles and they make a good promo hook. Love your shows. 🎉

Thank you Carol and Laura. Every scholarly discussion helps put pieces together for us to know the Tudor situations a bit better.

Just wanted to say how much I enjoyed this episode. Many thanks Carol Ann and Dr Laoutaris.

This was an absolutely fascinating and eye-opening discussion! The amount of research on Dr. Laoutaris' part as well as your preparation time is admirable! Makes me realize how lucky we are to have Shakespeare in our midst today and what was involved in that process. Thank you! P.S I just wanted to add how much I admire the enthusiasm you show for each guest and every topic, which effects the viewer's comprehension and appreciation of the content.

Outstanding episode! I really enjoyed hearing from Brigette. Thank you both for this interesting, informative discussion.

Excellent Thank you 🙏🙏💐💜🌹🏵️🇬🇧

Sorry, there was no way pope Clement was annulment Henry marriage. He had given him a dispensation to marry. Plus he had a living daughter. Charles v was a good excuse for him not to. Btw, the pope had been correct, Anne Boleyn was not a suitable wife. Had she had a son, Henry would not have killed her.

Thank you for a very interesting well-balanced discussion. Mr. Trow was a delightful and engaging guest. It would be interesting to have him back to discuss his books and theories regarding the Plantaganets, Richard lll, and Princes in the Tower. I enjoy Tudor history, but I really wish more was done about the Plantaganets. Thank you again!

Many thanks, this was a really enjoyable podcast.

The Yorkists were also descended from a Beaufort. Cecily Neville, who was the mother of Edward IV and Richard III, was the daughter of Joan Beaufort, Countess of Westmoreland. Why are you asking a person who is not a native of England, in terms of heritage, about English history? His views are totally Tudor skewed. By the way, Elizabeth of York was proposed by her parents to be married to a number of nobles by her parents. Finally, Richard proposed to marry her to a Portuguese prince, not to marry his niece.

I’ve never understood this idea that Elizabeth of York was in love with her uncle. She had every reason to despise him.

Love Nathen Amin. A fountain of knowledge and he always offers very valid and solid reasons for his views, especially when talking about Richard III

Great Discussion, Thank You!✨

Very interesting and informative I really enjoyed it and what a wonderful lady.

Very interesting topic but unfortunately the background noise was quite distracting to listen to this podcast.

What a pity there were so many distractions in the background. It must have been difficult for your guest to focus too with two people within close vicinity talking non stop. Couldn’t they go to another room? I think the name she couldn’t remember in relation to the attempted arrest is Wriothesley

What a pity it's impossible to buy this book in Russia

Marvellous interview. Thanknyou both. May the book continue to do well. G Ire

I’m Anne Boleyn obsessed also.. I saw the PBS show of the six wives with Kieth Michell. The episode of Anne Boleyn with Dorothy Turin was so disappointing. But, I wanted to know more. My bookshelf looks like yours. Anne if the thousand days is my favorite depiction of Anne.

I've often wondered about the stories that "the help" could tell!! 🫅🏵️💎

I could listen to Nathen for hours. Knowledgeable and balanced arguments

George. 🙄. 😂

Harry and Meghan is a replay of “John and Yoko” syndrome.

This interview was absolutely brilliant! Thank you.

This interview was so intriguing. Thank you so much. Love your channel. I’m new and binge watching ❤

What a lovely lady! Thank you!

Really enjoyable and informative broadcast. Thank you for this journey into Tudor England and also for introducing me to 'Beware of the Cat'.

This was an enjoyable and interesting discussion with Aimee Fleming on her biography of Margaret Roper. I look forward to reading the book. Also, regarding your future 'historical fiction' podcast, I think the 'Wolf Hall Trilogy' is hard to beat. Many thanks - Elizabeth Cumming.

I love Gareth. I could really watch him all day. He's just slap full of very cool knowledge.

Carol is wrong in her statement that testing the bones will not prove anything. The whole Tudor propaganda from Day 1 is that the bones WERE in fact the boys. If DNA testing shows the bones are not the princes, then the whole story is revealed as Tudor lie. Once you accept the Tudors lie then you have no alternative to accept that the precontract information (from a Bishop with no skin in the game) is in fact true.

"I can't prove Richard murdered but that is my opinion and [my opinion should be treated as a fact]. Also Nathen: "It is only her opinion that Richard did not kill his nephews. Her opinion is not fact" Double standard s.

I definitely need this book. Thank you so much for this.

I'm a little late to the game here, but what a great interview! I love Tracy-I had the honor of meeting her recently in NYC for a talk about this book. One of the best books I've ever read and so incredibly exciting that I now own a signed copy of it!

Great Discussion, Thank You!✨

An interesting and enjoyable interview, many thanks.

Hopefully King Charles will give permission for the alleged Prince’s bones in the urn in Westminster Abbey to be tested, and if they can be linked to Plantagenets… Then that should solve it…

Most interesting interview, many thanks.

Outstanding Discussion, Thank You!✨

@roberthoward6590 0 seconds ago Yup. Declaring all the Yorks illegitimate is way too convenient for Richard and no one killed or damaged more Yorks than Richard. Unfortunately for Richard, he had mixed success in killing Lancastrians.

I very much enjoyed reading the 'Uncrowned Queen' and look forward to Dr Tallis's 'Young Elizabeth'. As you mentioned, the fact both ladies (the 'Two Bookends' of Tudor history) have been researched by a single historian will make for fascinating comparisons. Many thanks for this interview. -Elizabeth Cumming.

Spoilt by far to many ad's 😢😢😢

This was so fascinating! It's interesting that no matter how much times/eras change, women's - peoples - concerns appear to remain pretty consistent. Thank you for sharing this with us!

There are many capable female historians who publish, I do wish there were more. It's time historians turn their eyes to the women who were indeed movers and shakers in times past. It always amazes me to learn just how influential and proactive women were throughout history and it's only the fact that no one teaches this that students are kept in ignorance. This period of time (The Anarchy and the decades of Henry II reign) is a perfect example of females taking the reins and driving the course of history.

Such an excellent discussion! Thank you for making this available to us to learn and enjoy! I am curious if any of the other countries bought this vision of 'Henry Vlll as a "merciful prince" as regards beheading Anne with a sword? Thank you again!!

That cat is the mvp of this discussion ❤

"Promo sm" 🏃

A fascinating discussion, thank you. I have just discovered your podcast, lots to discover there! Best wishes from Sussex in England.

Brilliant as usual, thank you! ✨
