Costumes from The Favourite are now on display at Kensington Palace: bit.ly/TheFavouriteKP
Lucy Worsley could do a document on dryer lint and make it totally fascinating.
Lucy Worsley could do documentary on paint drying and it would be fascinating and fun!
And I'm waiting .....
Lucy Worsley could do a documentary on the Kardashian and make it credible!
she wonderfull
Stable Life )
lucy worsley should make a full length documentary on queen anne
She really is. Lucy has a gift of making history interesting to everyone.
Louis Parsons I LOVE LUCY!! Such an awesome personality. I don’t think there is a subject that she cannot make interesting!! ❤️❤️❤️
There almost is with the blood lines series part 2 I believe. A good part of that one was about Anne
Yes. Please.
Indeed, I'm surprised she hadn't at all developed how the historical record really is. Maybe she could have some historians talk about Anne and do a full documentary.
Lucy out there being the real queen of this video
Don't you just love Lucy❤❤
I loved Queen Anne from the moment I heard about her as a 12 year old boy. The word tragic life springs to mind! She was not a fat, ugly, bisexual monarch. I think pain, depression and suffering from multiple grief over her children made her life hard despite the trappings of wealth. I always left my history lessons feeling very sad and very sorry for. Rest in peace Queen Anne.
I remember a line from a movie (Rob Roy, set in the time of Queen Anne)...the nasty Marquis said, "I've seen livlier graveyards than that woman's womb"
What's wrong with being ugly and bisexual? Obviously being fat can be unhealthy, but the others aren't bad.
A hard life, yes, despite her wealth. Your childhood empathy does you credit. And not forgetting the poor downtrodden masses struggling to survive, often neglected by historians in favour of royalist and "upper-class" versions of history
I have recently found, doing my family tree, Queen Anne was a 1st cousin, so have been doing some research on her life. Poor woman. Apparently from what I have gathered she shared a bed with her husband and was very caring when he was I'll. 17 pregnancies doesn't sound like she was bisexual. She must have been a very busy woman if she was. You need to bear in mind women were close in those days and you can't compare women's relationships in today's standards. A woman would not have been given the emotional and compassionate support of a husband in times of grief over a lost child let alone 17
You would only get that empathy and compassion from another woman, which was most probably the reason for a close friendship. Why do people want to throw sex into the story.
@@shirleyjenkins11 1. I hope you know what bisexual means...LOL! 2. I want to see that you're related to her because you'd have to be directly descended from Charles I of England.
17 babies from 1 womb........wouldn't be me!! God Bless Her.
No wonder she looked a bit rough at the end
Nor me......and this is coming from someone who had a gr-grandfather that fathered 17 children.
From the best we can determine 1 of his wives had 14 of the 17 children. 3 children only appear on an old census w/ out the mother's name listed. We think this other mother's name was was on a prior census page (now missing / lost in a fire).
17 dead babies. If I remember right her longest surviving child was 11 when he died. She was desperate for a living child. That had to just be, horrific to be pregnant so often and lose every last one.
Yes and on top of that, most of them didn't survive and 5 died in inphancy.
She was desperate to have an heir to keep the Stuart rule going. After that, it went to Hanover from Germany.
I love how brutally honest this movie is about how it must have been living in the early seventeen hundred. Beautiful, elegant and harsh all the same time.
Eighteenth century. The year 1710 is eighteenth, not 17th.
Seventeen hundred=1700s
I don't even care for the video. I just saw Lucy Worsley and had to click. My absolute favorite! But then the video got me intrigued about Queen Anne and got me down a rabbit hole of 3 am youtube research...
Insomnia. A good 👍 way to occupy myself. 😊
Another Lucy to truly love. The movie the Favorites was grand. Olivia Coleman was terrific.
I just can’t get enough of learning and watching and hearing about all of the kings and queens....💕💕
Hello 👋 how are you doing?
Lucy, you are just the best story teller and historian on TV and two continents. John and I just love your presentations. We never miss one. At 75 we have very discriminating taste. We have see the rest and you are THE BEST❣️.
I love and always watch everything Lucy's hosts in Historical Channel. 😀
Lucy I absolutely adore you. You are by far my favourite historian and I enjoy listening to you for your voice is quite soothing. Please make some more documentaries!! 😊
I love this lady. I've seen so many documentaries she has been in. Absolutely amazing she really makes history come alive. I hope if I'm ever in the UK I hope I get to meet her.
Wow, that dress! Lucy is so good at bringing stories to life,
"WHy have I brought you into a cupboard?" Haha, I just love Lucy!
Thanks to Queen Anne my ancestor fled Germany to England during the the reign of Louis XIV of France and emigrated to America.
Is that why your name is "Rushing"? Because someone fled?
Sorry 😭 🙇🏾♀️ I'll go away now 😬
@@chiranthiem.k.h.1597 it's actually Riesin but Rushing is easier to pronounce
You're welcome.
@@chiranthiem.k.h.1597 Lmao
For me, Queen Anne is my third cousin. It came from my Scottish side.
Thankyou, Lucy Worsley for igniting a new interest in my life: Royal history!
Hello 👋 how are you doing?
I'm an American by birth, English by descent and by heart. I want to walk thru Kensington and absorb the history, and thank you so much Ms Worsley for giving me the next best thing.
One of my lecturers was the historical consultant on this film
The film is about sex and power; a theme explored in other films. However, this story centers the theme on 3 women providing a fresh perspective. The history of Queen Anne functions as an interesting backdrop for such a story. This is not presented as a bio-pic, so do not take offense if it dosen't hold up to historical scrutiny. Watch a documentary instead.
I am in love with Lucy Worsle. We already know that she's undeniably intelligent, but she's also very lovely, absolutely beautiful, graceful. Lucy has has stolen my heart ! ! !
Dr. Lucy Worsley's Boyce is so soothing it calms anyone down. I love any documentary with her, everything becomes utterly interesting with her.
Lucy should do a doc on Lucy Worsley now. I'm ready for that one! Love everything about her. ❤
I love watching Lucy's documentaries.
Its like a mini LW doc. Love it!
Absolutely loved the movie "The Favorite". I'm ashamed that I didn't realize there was a Queen Anne. What a hoot!
I love Lucy. We all love Lucy.
The silk curtains are to remain the queen's favorite.
Lucy is the best. The poignant part of Anne's life is her burial vault where she is surrounded by all of her dead infants.
Love all your documentary’s.
I saw The Favourite last week I thought it was really good
I would LOVE to see The Favourite!! I wish it eere on Netflix.....sigh....
Our public library has it available to check out for free. Great resource!
I love Lucy and the way she presents history. I also loved the film The Favourite. I don't know if it was meant to be historically accurate but I really enjoyed it. Terrific acting.
I want to see it . Adore Dr.Worsley 💞
i see a lot of comments with negative opinions about the movie. and i'm here wondering if we've watched the same movie. it made costume drama watchable, entertaining even, and that's quite a feat imho. excellent movie!
twotonkatrucks I guess you got the different opinions because it will be seen in different ways. Most people will see it as a story in a film, a dramatised version of a period in our history. Then there will be the annoying people like me, historians who will wonder who on earth the film is about because it bears very little resemblance to what we know factually about Queen Anne and her court and reign. I wonder why the director chose to make a fiction out of a perfectly interesting woman. Why not just make a fictional film like Lord of the Rings or Harry Potter. The thing is that people who aren't historians will see this and accept it as fact, and so our real history will be rewritten. In time the fiction will become the fact. That has consequences which we can see if we look at our history. To know where we are going we have to know where we have been.
Lucy...give us more about Queen Anne. Was she bisexual or a opportunistic lover? What were the 17 pregnancies? All still births? Or miscarried? There is so much more you could be sharing with us!
Please!
@@maryg8979 Five were still births. The longest lived died aged about 11 or 12. Who knows if she had a lesbian affair. Probably not as she was devoted to her husband, Prince George of Denmark. There used to be something called romantic friendship. Now, in our sex obsessed time if two people are fond of each other they are lovers. I think we have lost rather a lot.
Lucy could make a documentary on how paint dry look interesting.
More Lucy, please!
So far from the reviews I noticed there are inaccurate character descriptions. Sarah Churchill was a blonde and Abigail was her cousin. Sarah was the one who introduced Abigail to the Queen. Queen Anne had suffered miscarriages, the death of her only surviving heir,and her husband as well,this made her not only depressed but very lonley. There is very little evidence to support Sarah was a lesbian, but she did threaten Queen Anne with accusations of her having a lesbian lover.
And she was just as much trouble to the next queen. She seems to have been the kind of person who ingratiates her way into a relationship then takes over. Narcissistic maybe.
@@Cate7451 Umm wasn't the next Monarch a King?!
superbly random , yes, George 1 was married. His wife was a queen, Queen Sophia Dorothea of Celle, who has a fascinating story as well.
Im suprised at someone being able to accuse or speak about a monarch like this. I would think the monarch would be threatening to anyone who did this to her so its alittle shocking to say the least that Sarah was able to spread misinformation like this about them.
We love Lucy
I wonder if there is a Lucy fan club. It could be named after the wonderful Lucille Ball show in the 1950s. I Love Lucy.
and yet it has still some of the most historically accurate costumes in historical film and tv of the past decade
Not so accurate. Almost all others are so inaccurate that "The Favorite" is by comparison a rather good one, but far from perfect accuracy.
I love Lucy ! She's just like the other famous Lucy, who's TV show back in the late 50's and 60's I love Lucy starred Lucille Ball, an American comedian and actress. Our Lucy makes us laugh, educates us and with her brimming enthusiasm makes watching her becomes infectious. Carry on Lucy.
Hello 👋 how are you doing?
Really enjoyed this! Lucy Worsley can literally explain anything and it will be interesting haha
This is so sad no one should be like this her dresses look amazing for sure.
I am a simple (gay) man. I see a Lucy Worsley video on youtube, i watch it and like it.
Lovely Lucy Worsley,
Thanks to talk me about the Queen Anne at Kensington Palace
I love anything she does!!!
I love, Lucy!
Outstanding narration - I liked this a lot.
All I know about Queen Anne is my mum will say, on occasion, to a query of length '...not since Queen Anne died....'
Love you Lucy!!!! ❤️🥰❤️🥰
Wow! What a tewibly well-told wipping good tale!
My great grandfather was one of 14 children and another great grandfather was one of 16. Both their mothers enjoyed good health. Perhaps Queen Anne had other health concerns that were exacerbated by pregnancy but pregnancy is usually a natural, healthy condition.
I mentioned above that I believe she has what I have which is the RH factor in blood type. I am RH O- and have to get a RhoGAM shot in the beginning and after pregnancies, otherwise my body thinks the baby is a foreign object and my blood with fight it and could cause me to lose it. with that shot, it protects the baby from being attacked. I have to get another after the baby is born to ensure my blood cells build back up again. I truly feel with this many losses that its not just a coincidence. I really feel she has the same issue. Its sad that she didn't know this and that it wasn't her doing anything to lose them.
Olivia Colman was hilariously strange in this movie. Well done.
It must have been endearing to see all the costumes and the palace of Kensington itself, but it is so far away!
With so many people that have died there one wonders if there are any lingering spirits!!
Why people stopped believing that there is such thing as pure friendship??? As soon as they see two individuals become close, a sexual connotation has to be involved. Just crazy
Well, there is no evidence that such a romance did happen, but there isn't evidence that disproves it either. The only thing it was kinda based on were the letters Anne and Sarah had written each other. Some of them got quite s t e a m y.
17 pregnancies! How many live children, and how long did they live? When I saw trailers about this film I thought it was pure fantasy, had no idea it was based on reality until I saw Lucy W on this here.
All but 5 of her children were stillborn. Of those 5, only one lived more than 2 years. He died when he was 11. She must have been beside herself with grief. It must also have been frustrating to know that she was the last of the Stuarts, and that if she couldn't come up with an heir the throne would go to a cranky old German prince. It would be interesting to know what caused the deaths of her children.
I love Lucy!! (Worsley that is...)
Anne was responsible for an important change in the British government. She was the first queen regnant to insist that her consort was a prince, not a king. Mary I and Mary II had both allowed their husbands to be co-rulers, and Mary II had deferred so much to William III that he remained on the throne after her death.
I haven't researched the matter but I think it more likely that, in view of her prior medical history, the Queen was massively edematous (anasarca) from renal failure at the end.
wholeNwon more than likely it was all due to undiagnosed preeclampsia which can trigger a lot of health issues including CHF, Renal failure, and I also think she probably had gestational diabetes which led to diabetes type 2.
Could Lucy Worsley please do a documentary on Queen Anne and Lady Sarah..Yes we loved the movie too!.
I just found out that I share the same birthday as Queen Anne. I watch the movie over a year ago really good performances.
The queen’s coffin was probably lead lined and elaborate which would have made it heavier. We’re there multiple coffins?
What about a documentary on Lucy ? We’re more fascinated by her than everyone and everything thing she reinacts
All of her children died before Anne - poor woman having to endure that! Her German cousin (from the House of Hanover) became king after her
It was nearly Prince George of Hanover's mother, Sophia, who followed Anne. She was the next heir, a very clever and interesting woman. Because she was heir our parliament passed the Sophia Naturalisation Act in 1705, which said that her descendants would automatically be UK citizens. That means that when Prince Philip became a UK citizen before he married The Queen, he didn't really need to because he already was due to his descent from Sophia.
Although she was much older than Anne she was much fitter. Anne disliked her for several reasons, particularly I think, because she was very clever and popular. She refused to accept Sophia, who never came to England. Shortly before her own death, Anne sent Sophia a very nasty letter, which upset her very much. She got caught outside in a thunderstorm and died as a result. That's how we got George I rather than Sophia I.
@@mscott3918 wow thanks for the info! Another person to read about! I love biographies!
@@rhyfelwrDuw Pleasure. I write about history, and a short biography of Sophia will be in my next book but one.
I walked past Kensington Palace last week and the only advertisement was for the Diana and her clothes exhibit. Had I known this was on I would have bought a ticket! Never even saw any ads in Time Out or on the tube. Opportunity missed. 😥
Queen Anne wasn’t bisexual. it’s demeaning in order to pounder to the latest social vogue to revise and adjust every bit of history, humanity acquired in wars, rebellions, famines and plagues. As for three women showcased in Favourite, it’s about party and geo politics. The unique part was that contrary to customary sets (king, mistress, minister; queen, male lover, counselor; king, male lover, counselor, queen, confidant, counselor) this time it was queen, confidant from one party, confidant from another party, parliament. And naturally Lucy Worsley is a gem and a pearl, her stories has a sex appeal (even when it’s about kitchen gadgets - wanted to get Victorian mixer with rust and twice larger than I can handle :).
I’d love to see that movie. Queen Anne and her sister, Queen Mary II are my 3rd cousins XX times removed, I’m not sure how many times. My ancient direct ancestor was the younger brother of the Rev. Francis Denman, great-great-grandfather of the queens. My Denman ancestors came to the colonies in 1636, but it is still a neat bit of history.
Poor Anne lost her children due to a blood disease forget medical name but it can be called "sticky blood" , now it can be diagnosed and treated with Aspirin or Willow Bark as they would have know it in Anne's time, hope she is at peace with her husband and children
Never heard of this, i have an RH factor and it will see the baby as a foreign object and attack it if i do not get a special shot for it. i thought she possibly had the same issue, but didnt have the right medicines back then for it. Ill have to look into this sticky blood thing. Interesting.
gout is extremely painful and I doubt they had any kind of treatment for it then

Poor Queen Anne.
Royals seem to be the most miserable people ever. They had wealth and privilege but didn’t have sincerity from the people around them.
Yes indeed, all very good point's.However I do believe all the incest played a role in their royal genetic confusion.Checking for a bleeder here or there.......
Stephen Murphy
That too. Inbreeding doesn’t help.
You're likely right. With that in mind, it's incredibly ironic how many people are envious about not being royal themselves.
Wealth and privilege that often can’t be exploited, especially now. They make decisions but all of them carry a weight. If they don’t do what’s the powerful wants, their head might be on the ground. They are chained by their wealth and privilege.
I love Lucy's accent
Poor Anne
Hello 👋how are you doing?
Queen Anne- the last English.... and first British Monarch
(unless we give James VI/I that epithet)
How interesting
Any idea on how much queen Ann would have weighed if 14 men had to carry her coffin?
My grandmother on my fathers side had 10 children but died at 42 in childbirth with by Richard the 11th baby. My maternal grandmother had 12 babies. She and baby 12 died during birth. My grandmothers where very thin because of rations during WW2. They all lived on farms but still had minimal food shares and had to grown everything or trade. Poor ladies I never got to meet them.
Hello 👋 hope all’s well with you there?
Watching the film I couldn’t help but think that wIthin the next 20-30 years Sarah Churchill’s descendant, will be on the throne occupied by Queen Anne. The irony is that Anne’s son/heir shares the name of Sarah’s descendant who will be king: Prince William.
William is related to Churchill through the Spencers.
must have been filmed before the Oscars- why else just say, 'the Golden Globe winning film...'? Olivia's Oscar win was one of the best choices in years.
👩💻love, Love, LOVE Lucy Worsley. I was watching a documentary the other day about Catherine Worsley who married Prince Edward, Duke Of Kent, Queen Elizabeth's cousin, at York Minster. The Queen even wore white roses in her hat for the House of York, so appropriate. I wondered if Catherine Worsley and Lucy Worsley were related some how? Does anyone know? Thanks so much. Much love and peace. 🙋♀️🪔🌠🐞🥰&♎🇺🇲🇬🇧Also the Duke of Kent accompanied Queen Elizabeth on the balcony during the past Jubilee.
Imagine being in there
I was
O.M.G.!!!
Queen Anne was a strong woman and didn't let anyone rule in her place (take her power), unlike in the movie. She also didn't have a sexual relationship with Sarah or Abigale like in the movie.
So they making a movie on her life ? Nice can't wait to watch
It's EXTREMELY historically inaccurate, although it's gotten good reviews.
Its was released a few months ago, just keep in mind they take great liberties in terms of historical accuracy. It is still entertaining.
It’s unlike any other period drama I’ve ever seen, I loved it!
I love the costumes and especially the history, but the film was disgusting, just filthy. I was really disappointed. However, if Ms.Lucy did a documentary on Queen Anne, I’d be first in line! We miss you Ms. Worsley!
Hello from Tallahassee, Florida
Pregnancy doesn't give you gout. A fatty horrible diet is the cause. Which also explains the weight gain. I imagine she ate to make herself feel better, as a lot of depressed people still do till this day.
Nice 👍
This movie was such a diss to Queen Anne I felt. Obscenely historically inaccurate. I can’t believe Lucy is covering this being a historian herself. Queen Anne deserves and deserved better. It was a good film which took real people’s names and tainted them to the mass public. Such a shame. // watch this video czcams.com/video/ucVpMPr6_To/video.html
Ash * I agree
Could someone pleaseupload the full length of this documentary.
I honestly feel horrible for Queen Anne poor woman she lost all her children NON made it to adulthood only one made it past infancy and she was in a relationship with Sarah Churchill
Coincidentally Queen Anne was the last of the Stuart Dynasty
Is the film worth seeing, may I ask? I have seen the plaque of all the babies that Anne lost. I think seeing William the heir die before her didn't help, Queen Anne.
Hello 👋how are you doing?
my poor cousin Queen Anne
Clyde Dollarhide Jr me, too! I’m a third cousin through the Denman family.
On a different note, are you from Florida? My wife’s family knew a Bill Dollarhide.
Mine too, through the Scott family descent from Charles II.
Given the state Queen Anne was in , it is the antithesis of the beautiful furniture of the period.
Thank you for response! Illuminating. The private letters between James 1 and then Duke of Buckingham are published and then is no doubt they were lovers. It’s a fact. Confirmed by countless accounts from courtiers and others. There’s no substantial evidence to support the notion Ann had an intimate relationship with Sarah or any one else. Only conjecture.
You could say the Stuart’s started with a bang and ended with a quim....per. But the latter remains unsubstantiated.
Julian Coulden Anne and Sarah exchanged letters and they are exceedingly romantic far beyond what two female friends would say to each other. It’s possible they weren’t actually having sex, but they did have a romantic love for certain. Sarah was well aware of just how inflammatory the letters could be if made public, and she actually did try to blackmail Anne by threatening to have them published. She also accused Abigail of being Anne’s lover. It’s possible this was slander, but since the question of whether or not she was or not is central to the story of the fall of Sarah and rise of Abigail, it had to be included as part of the story, and frankly, it makes sense to me that they would have been. Where there is smoke, there’s fire
Graphic Jack Life was different then, and they had a concept of romantic friendship which we don't have now. We see the letters through the eyes of the 21st century, where such things are sexual. The concept of romantic friendship continued into the early 20th century. It is far from unusual to see pictures of two men walking arm in arm, and it is a central feature of Waugh's novel Brideshead Revisited. It is even referred to directly. To modern generations, probably since the 1960s, if two people are affectionate then they are lovers. I think we have lost something by that.
You are absolutely right and put so clearly!
I truly believe she had the RH factor for her blood type. I have it and my body will reject the baby because my blood type rejects the babies and sees the baby as a foreign object. I have to get a RhoGAM shot each time i get pregnant in the beginning stages and afterwards to protect the baby as well as build up my antibodies again. I feel The Queen possibly had this as there is no other way she would lose that many babies otherwise unless pure unluck.
Sandy powell 🖤
she does the edinburgh festival
Heart times long ago
Does anyone know where the costumes are now? I would have loved to see this
