    Just watched this episode for the first time. Fascinating history. The Earl and Countess are such good presenters. I appreciated the clarity of the chronological structure of the history of the house and various owners. It was quite fun to see the coats of arms and symbols for each family adorning the house. Made the familys seem more real. The renaissance table in the hall is beyond words. This was so wonderful, thank you for such a thoughtful and informative presentation. I will watch this again.

    Very excited about the history of the land and beautiful home. The architecture structure is so wonderful. I agree about the earliest part being built over close to the church. It was probably a wooden structure first built. Aerial views might actually show possible indentation or odd land formation. Might indicate an old foundation. It's a glorious beautiful place to be proud of. ❤

      Her excitement at hanging her laundry on rooftop terrace was absolutely charming.
      I had no idea she had any experience.
      Well,
      People, perhaps it's a social experiment.
      She filmed her excited milestone....
      Perhaps testing the reaction of general population.
      Very unusual be responses.

    I am not a patron, but I have a question: "So how many people were murdered throughout history - in England, Ireland, and other neighbors and elsewhere in the world - for the family to become rich and aristocratic (oh, ah)
    Another question. I had an "intellectual" encounter with the English aristocratic system, undoubtedly the most absurd in Europe and I have no doubt that to function as an English aristocrat one has to spend one's life memorizing who was born as who, whom he became at five when he inherited some stolen property and transitioned from some Baron of Dirtyvillage to Viscount of Dirtytown, etc. I have no doubt that one doesn't have any time to study anything else, thus not surprisingly the English are profoundly anti-intellectual and limit their pastime to riding dogs and chasing horses (or is it the reverse?). Yes, their libraries look pristine and pretty. dr anna
