S1 - 047 Pope Innocent VIII - Part Two

The worst pope who ever poped?  In Part Two we felt he was definitely in the running.

 

P.S. You will hear a new voice at the end of this episode.  We will explain some impending changes in a special update episode.  All good.  But, in the meantime, meet David.

Henry's Kids

... and Elizabeth's, obviously, but that would have made for a less snappy title.

What sort of parents were Henry and Elizabeth?  How did they cope with the inevitable child mortality?  Does anything in Prince Henry's childhood explain.......anything?

S1 - 046 Cecily Neville, Duchess of York - Part One

Mother of two kings, grandmother of a king and a queen, great-grandmother of Henry VIII, and so close to becoming a queen herself. It's hardly surprising she had such an eventful life.

This is a man who must really have kissed the Blarney Stone.  He committed treason twice...and yet still got away with it.

Please be aware all you ornithophobes out there - in this episode Kildare is attacked by a sparrowhawk and Michelle is attacked by woodpeckers!
