- I sat down over Zoom for a fascinating talk with Sharon Bennett Connolly where we discussed the women involved in the Anarchy. The main women being the Matildas; Empress Matilda, daughter of Henry I, and Queen Matilda, wife of King Stephen.
There's more! In the Patreon-only section, Sharon and I discussed the women of Magna Carta plus she answered questions submitted by Patrons.

This was a great discussion! The Anarchy is a fascinating period that I feel gets overlooked or mentioned only in passing in reference to the rise of the Plantagenets.
Very interested in this time period....thank you for the video 😊
Sharon is very knowledgeable and so fun to listen to. Matildas strength and patience is admirable. Stephen wasted 19 years like a brat.
Thank you both.
Great video girls. Learned a lot! 😅
Philippa, thank you for this and every interview you’ve done on your channel. I could comment on each of them (and will try to from now on) but I would say the same thing - I have learned SO MUCH! The experts and authors are engaging and fascinating, and their knowledge is astonishing. And you are a thoughtful, engaging interviewer. I’m so glad I discovered you (and the HAD crew too). If dreams come true, I will one day join you on an Anne Boleyn tour.
Amy thank you so much! I’m so pleased you are getting so much out of the interviews. Love that you watch HAD too. 😀
It would be so good to see you on an Anne Boleyn Tour one day 😀❤️
I’ll keep hoping!!
Historical fiction book recommendation: Lady of the English by Elizabeth Chadwick
I love how everyone was named Matilda. I understand the nickname was Maud. How do you get Maud from Matilda? Was it pronounced differently?
how many matildas...
the original one...
1066 - 1083 queen Matilda of flanders...queen consort of england...
is the HBO series, a copy and paste of the *anarchy*
Stephen is to me one of the worst kings in our history!
