Not mentioned in all this was the fact that the New Model Army refused to disband until Parliament came up with all of its back pay. The rich have such a long history of refusing to pay for services rendered.
That's how they got rich and stay that way.
They got the costumes right but Charles’ wig and goatee look like something you can get at the Spirit Halloween Store lol 😂
That's exactly what I thot. The beard looks like a cheap Santa Claus beard. 😅
That looks like his real hair compared to a wig
Where else would they find that? 🤣
😂😂
That's because the wigmakers for Spirit Halloween stores copy paintings of Charles 1.
I absolutely love Prof. Kate Williams. You can see her passion for the history.
I thought it was Wucy Wolthswey.
You should see Prof. Katt Williams. He's a real luminary
James I was named the heir by Queen Elizabeth on her deathbed. Mary of Scotts (His mother) had nothing to do with it. That first sentence made no sense. How could they get that messed up?
Mary Queen of Scots had a claim to the English throne. She was a descendant of Henry VIII through his sister. Therefore so did James.
I think she was referring to the Scottish throne
@@gus-vanover No she was NOT a descendant of Henry. He was her great uncle though.
The English didn't like the Stuarts because they were Scottish. It's that simple. (If Meghan Markle had lived in the 17th century and married an English prince being successor of the throne, she would certainly have ended on the scaffold.) There was a lot of xenophobia involved.
C. Norbert Neumann I wholeheartedly agree .
disagree, royalty was different. most countries in europe had monarchs which had foreign blood. Louis XIV at the sametime had spanish,austrian and portugueuse blood... You should not forget the stuarts after Mary stuart descended from Henry VII. So xenophobia existed, but kings were apart in this. since everyone knew that there was advantages that your king had foreign blood in order to make alliances and stuff like that. If europeans monarchs could have married into chinese nobility for advantages they would have done it. He was put to the scaffold because he even acknowledged him and his dad that kings were "small Gods ' on earth. they literally believed that kings were gods, it was not even symbolic. so thats what put them in trouble.
@@philmuda King Henry VIII. and his daughter, Queen Mary I. ("Bloody Mary"), were very tyrannical English monarchs, yet there were never serious attempts to overthrow them, especially not by the parliament. Also Henry's other daughter, Queen Elizabeth I., ruled in an authoritarian manner, often violating the rights of the parliament and its members. Nevertheless, she was popular and nicknamed "Good Queen Bess". In the contrary, there was a hostile attitude against Kings James I. and Charles I. from the beginning, although they were not more tyrannical or authoritarian than their predecessors. King James II. was overthrown and forced into exile, just because his wife had born an heir. Something similar would never have happened under the Tudor monarchs. Throughout the 17th century, there was a fundamental dislike against the Stuarts in England, rooted in their Scottisch ancestry. (The German-rooted Hanoverian kings were very unpopular in England, too, but since British monarchs had already been disempowered by the time, they were not overthrown or forced into exile.)
@@c.norbertneumann4986 totally wrong. you never heard of the pilgrimage of grace with henry the VIII the whole north rised up. The duke of buckingham also tried to overthrow him. As for Mary, she had a huge rebellion from Thomas Wyatt and others as well. Lets not even talk about Elizabeth. I am not arguing with you that xenophobia and bigotry existed at that time everywhere. it simply didnt apply to kings who were seen as representation of the state. Charles being scottish had nothing to do with his execution. he lived almost all his life in London and alot of his ancestors were english and he descended from Henry VII.
I believe she still would today if she were to become Queen
Thank you for uploading this video. I thoroughly enjoyed it, it was like doing a history revision.😊
"He was allowed to touch the king..."
Hou la la, you'll make some people jealous! 😆
I like how the men's fashion at this time was basically a Beatnik pilgrim with a granny doily tablecloth over the shoulders. >_>
I like King Charle's outfits, he had style unlike today
🤣
I just spat my coffee all over my iPad, stained my shirt and almost choked, coughing and laughing at the same time, after I read your astute commentary on men’s fashion of the era!!! Sincerely though, “Thank You,” I love to have genuine laughter at brilliant commentary and your’s just made my evening!!! 😂🤣🤗😅👏👏👏

Don't accept blame that isn't yours.
Is excellent advice.

Am i the only one loving the way the lady tells the story and moves around and, generally, ACTS ?
She truly is an excellent presenter, whom as mentioned earlier, cannot hide her passion for History; thus presenting it in an alluring way, to captivate the interest of others to her profession!
@@finnsmom1673 Not only that, with that hairstyle and that hair colour, she is truly english even in appearance.

Since I have not been in school in awhile I needed a refresher course. I see that the there were many a war of religion and politics.What a mess!!
Looks like times haven't change much. There are still many civil wars happening over religion and politics today.
Everyone did not hate him. Everyone however did hate Cromwell though before he finally died and basically freed the people from his own tyranny by appointing his incompetent son to succeed him as Lord Protector.
Why didn't the King of France sent aid to King Charles? Even just to ensure the protection of his daughter.
He just didn't cared. Also any expedition would be expensive, risky, and even if eventually successful and what he would gain in return?
King Louis XIV of France was a minor at the time. Cardinal Mazarin ruled France on his behalf. While Mazarin did pay lip service to Charles’s request for help, he didn’t do anything to help Charles. Possible reason for not helping Charles could be that France was caught up in a civil war of its own called The Fronde.
@@TurboMMaster I certainly do see some gain in such an expedition. For those who believe in royal government, letting a Monarch be executed by commoners would be setting a bad precedent.
In 1588 the most powerful nation in Europe, Spain, sent its Armada (and army) to defeat Elizabeth and conquer England. Spain was very wealthy, what with the plunder of the Jews & Moors and the loot stolen from the New World. Yet by some fluke, the English (and the sudden storms) destroyed the Spanish armada.) The Pope had promised the king of Spain 6 million gold ducats if he could defeat Elizabeth. The irony, when Elizabeth scceeded to the throne, she declared her intent to have religious freedom. "I want no windows on mens souls." The Roman Catholics would have none of it. Even as late as the Syllabus of errors they were still insisting on monarchism as divinely ordained. They railed against the Americanist heresy - and were horrified at the idea of freedom of religion. "Extra Ecclesiam Nulla Salus." (Outside the Catholic Church there is no salvation.) Nowadays all that has changed. Catholics have even apologized to Jews. Pope Francis is truly open and progressive.
Isn't the Charles Spencer on this video the late Princess Diana's brother? If not, he sure looks like him.👀😁
yes-it-is-him
@@MahaliaSilverStacker Thanks, I thought so.
elaine smith Charles Spencer, the 9th Earl of Spencer and brother of Princess Diana, wrote a book “Killers of the King” or Charles 1
elaine smith wow
Yes it is him, he is in alot of these videos for this channel
Too many damn commercials
I got premium a few months ago, and the downloading alone makes it worth it. Esp when people upload movies full screen and great audio/picture.
Seriously I'm broke AF with many children. Health is in the toilet. Premium is surprisingly cheap and well worth it. Kinda nice not wasting life you can't get back on shitty ads 😎👌
The paint brush game is insane… WHO ARE THESE IMPOSTERS 🤷🏽♂️🎯😂
King Charles III Said hold my drink 🤣
This video released on my birthday last year and I didn't even know it! XD
I’ve noticed a trend that the aristocracy throughout history tends to look back fondly on the Stuarts. Girl bye. Give me the Honoverians any day of the week.
I don't mind some commercials but this exceeded and boundaries of commerce. Some were only five minutes apart. It made it very difficult to watch this and gain any knowledge from it.
Its mounted on a lousy server which continually needs buffering. I've watched a number of videos today and only this one was constantly running slow and couldn't keep up.
If you are watching on a laptop or PC, download and use Adblock.
If you are watching on a tablet or phone, fast forward close to the end (+ or - 15 seconds) and allow the video to finish. Then reload the video, the commercials will be gone. Once you learn to do it, it becomes easy. You can then watch commercial free.
short answers: too catholic, forced loans, violating parliament, horrific, bloody civil war.
Violating parliament and disrespecting the church (post-Reformation) is what ultimately set the people against him the most I think.
@@thunderbird1921 why was parliament so strong😂
@@plotarmour1471 an excuse of a kingdom thats why, a king with no authority
Treason. Treason. Treason is all I hear!
Wth!?
Is *Treason* the same as "not being on the team" or "disagreeing with each other"
In those years it COULD be. depended on who you disagreed with and what the argument was
"This Parliament is, by my authority, dissolved; terminated." 👿
The whole building then just explodes
@@Patrick3183 Guy Fawkes: “Hey, no fair stealing my ideas!” 🔥
Very diffuse to understand the speakers. Sounds like the bass was turned up too much.
Off with his hand!!!! LOL let's see how many understand that reference if any
I wish Queen Elizabeth II would dissolve Parliament and take control of her servants back
Not everyone hated King Charles I : the cavaliers were royalists until the bitter end and he still had supporters even in parliament!
@Elizabeth Frantes
Fair enough Milady!
However it's still a fact that King Charles I had more than just a handful of supporters in Scotland (mostly among the highlanders), Wales, England (cavaliers and crypto-catholics) and Ireland (catholics) not to mention that after his execution some royalists followed the rest of the royal family into exile first in the Netherlands and then afterwards into France (after his death his son Prince Charles was immediately proclaimed King Charles II by the Scottish and even attempted to occupy the throne of Scotland in 1651-52 with help from royalist supporters to the Stuarts)
It is ironic that history would partially repeat itself when in 1688 King James II fled into France with his 2nd wife Queen Mary of Modena and their infant son the Prince of Wales where they were followed by roughly ten thousand people from English and Scottish noble families along with their households which constituted his royal court in exile whilst still maintaining thousands of supporters dedicated to the legitimist jacobite cause back in the British Isles that carried on until the mid 18th century by supporting him, his son and grandson mostly in Scotland and Ireland and to a less degree also in England and Wales!
Wasn't it fairly evenly divided until the Scottish Presbyterians got involved? In the early period it was a tug-of-war. The big militay disadvantage of the old system of giving higher ranks of leadership to those of noble birth -- led to frequent examples of less effective generalship. The New Model Army elevated commanders based on merit and experience.
Too many ads
DK Phillips yes. The ads are excessive .

How much did the tribe do in the war???
I had difficulties understanding the presenter. Her voice was too low and not clear enough. Otherwise, it was very informative and interesting. The blond gentlemen, I think is the brother of Princess Diana
he is!
It's her terrible lisp and inability to pronounce the r, that's difficult for good sound production, they can't raise the volume too much because it'll not help. That's why it's difficult to hear her clearly.
I would say the present king is more hated as a traitor ..treating with foreign powers[wef]..
I love it.
He hated being called Chuck
That black curls wig is killing me 😵😵😆
The people were worn out by austerity? Which people? It s a matter of record that the living standards of the majority ROSE under the Commonwealth and droppeds dramatically after the Restoration? Please do not sell us Royalist propaganda as fact.

You undermine your own argument by placing a question mark at the end of your defensive sentence. Very confusing. Is it a matter of record, or is it not?
@@prometheusunbound7628 If your best argument is that I made a typing error, your arguments are very shallow.

I am sure the presenter is well informed, but her glaring eyes flashing out are disturbing. Very disturbing.

Squandered the immense legacy of the Tudors
"Immense legacy of the Tudors"...!?!? Which one? That's a joke right? Except for Queen Elizabeth I the other Tudor monarchs didn't exactly leave any legacy worth mentioning!
Henry VII was an usurper and a regicide always paranoid about someone killing him, Henry VIII was a sociopathic murderer, a bigamist and a christian heretic, Edward VI was a child King and a pre-teen puppet with no real power and Mary I was a bitter woman and a fanatical catholic hellbent on revenge against those who helped her father abolishing catholicism and divorcing her mother!
@@filipematias5127 the tudors were the most powerful monarchs England ever had. They each ruled with unparalleled power and prestige and the complete devotion of Parliament which never happened before or after. What James I inherited from Elizabeth was an absolute monarchy with an almost rubber-stamp legislature that required little
More than basic politeness and a show of respect from the monarch to support any war, any tax request, anything. They blew that all and couldn’t understand how simple it really was. Parliament would do ANYTHING the king wanted as long as the king wasn’t rude or dismissive. James and Charles both disrespected Parliament.
He was hated in part because the Puritans had gained the majority in Parliament. They were an extremist religious faction that hated the excesses of royalty and of the catholic nature of the Church of England worship. When Charles tried to assert his lawful authority over them, they declared him a traitor to the Puritan cause and chopped off his head.
Why the queen would name her son after such a man as this? Charles II is hated as well
@@SundayCookingRemix The late Queen named her third son "Edward" the same as her uncle who abdicated and forced her father to become King.
If you read the American declaration of independence (1776) very similar themes are raised. The King had been the legitimate lawful authority, but according to Jefferson's viewpoint, all authority ultimately derives from the consent of the governed. Partly as a result of the English civil war, the way was paved for a consitutional monarchy. The English Bill of Rights was made possible by the Glorious Revolution of 1688, And the English Bill of Rights (1689) set the stage for the American version of constitutionalism, almost a hundred years later. - PS in defense of medieval Catholicism, remember that few people (especialy in northern Europe) could read or write. Gutenberg's printing press, around 1440, enabled a HUGE advance.
@@robertshepherd8543 - The difference is that we Americans who revolted against the authority of King George III didn't chop off his head!

Thanks to the Atlantic Ocean! 😇
HELP! 7:20 Can someone help me understand what they meant by, "Except in Wales", when referring to England outshinning all nations. Why would Wales be exempt?
The guy who helped the king is welsh, hence the banter. And the king simply rolls with it
@@00_rei90 Ohhhhh! That makes sense. Right over my head. Thank you!
Isn't it because Richard Wynne's family Barony (Gwydir) was in Wales. Wales was then very poor but beautiful, and they were the original Britons, going back to King Arthur, and further to Glastonbury (where Jesus supposedly walked on "Englands green and pleasant land." Of course it was not England then. Supposedly young jesus went with his uncle Joseph of Arimathea (tin merchant) - to estsblish a reign of peace, a New Jerusalem. In William Blake's poem the enemy was cruel modern oppression of the workers in the factories. He merely invoked the ancient Welsh legend.
The Stuart's related to the Spencer family?
Charles was great!! Naturally so, as God ordained the order of the Universe, as thus he was meant to reign in that time. Today the Universe is guiding us to a more Egalitarian arrangement, as the fabric's hand weaves a new cloth.
God isn't real
@@CountesssBathory God is but I don't agree this interpretation. He didn't wind the Universe up like a Great Clock and leave it just running.(i.e. Predestination)
So you don't believe in free will. So nobody is responsible for their actions?
Could you leave the music off of your videos or at least turn it down? It's too loud. If I turn the volume down then I can't hear the dialog. And if I leave the volume up I almost go deaf.
Queen Elizabeth II named her son after an executed king SMH
Set him up for failure. This one is hated as well. The irony
Charles was set up for failure from the beginning
We also hate the Charles of today.
LMAO
Why?
That smirk on his face is enough for me to hate him.
At first it's fine, but then you hear he "absolutely believed in a Kings divine rights".....
I'm just going to come out and say it. I need subtitles when they are reenacting. All that fanciness is not needed.

Also, if you want to block a channel, look for the three vertical dots that appear in the right lower corner when you hover over the video (before you click to watch it). It will give you the option to have this channel "not recommended." Works pretty well, at least for a while.
Interesting . All the kings named Charles are horrible.
I find it interesting Spencer says he was a weak king. What is it you do again? You need to work on the flabby jawline.
Ah
Lol why do I have a feeling another video with this title will be made one day
Ok this has got to be the worst dialogue ever omg
Why is Charles Spencer considered an expert beside being an Earl and aristocrat? Is he a royalist historian? No shade. Just curious.
An historian specialising in the Tudors and Stuarts.

Catholicism is not the true faith!! Maybe only by his standards!
Nonsense! Read J.H. Newman on his conversion to the Church...
Angela Hartley in 2020 , is it that necessary to judge which philosophy of Christianity is the “ true” faith ? I’m Roman Catholic and have attended Protestant services . I have close friends who are Protestant and we speak freely about the similarities and differences in our religions . Along the long history of Catholicism there have been huge issues and corruption which fueled the Protestant reformation . Please don’t use the behavior of catholic hierarchy to criticize all of Catholicism . Those bad apples are a small part of the catholic congregation . I do not condone the corruption . The corruption is evidence that evil exists and that Satan is working overtime and enjoys watching we Christians killing each other in the name of God . Here in America we tolerate all faiths . It’s the basis of our constitution .
@@honey-feeney9800 i have my own opinions as you do!
Angela Hartley each person’s opinion has value . The point of my previous post is : we Christians have more in common, than not . Catholicism is not the enemy. Satan is the enemy and he lives to stir contention among God’s faithful.
