Let’s talk about Kateryn Parr - the last wife of Henry VIII.
Who were her first two husbands? Was she indeed the one who survived?
What was her relationship like with her step-children? She must have been quite a woman for Henry to leave her as regent when he went to fight the French.
To chat all things Kateryn, we have Laura Adkins, who recently published a biography of this queen with Pen & Sword.

Today we’re talking about Margaret Whigham, the it-girl of 1930’s, who became Mrs Sweeny with her first marriage - Cole Porter mentioned her in a song - and Duchess of Argyll with her second.
She is remembered today for a sex scandal initiated by the 11th Duke of Argyll during their divorce proceedings.
She is also responsible for restoring Inveraray Castle in Scotland; and
one can definitely credit Margaret with making waves when it comes to legislation against revenge porn.
And today we’re talking to Lyndsy Spence, who wrote a book on Margaret, published by The History Press.

Right trusty and well beloved, we greet you well!
On the 6th December 1421 a baby boy is born in Windsor Castle…his parents are Catherine of Valois and Henry V ..this boy would be a crowned king of England as well a crowned king of France, the only one to ever achieve this honour. Sadly, he would come to lose both his crowns and his life.
Henry VI, as he became, is often blamed to be the cause of the Wars of the Roses that rattled England in the middle of the 15th century.
The historian Lauren Johnson takes a more sympathetic approach.
Let’s talk to her about her book on Henry, called The Shadow King;
published by Head of Zeus (UK) and Pegasus (USA).

On the 19th November in the year 1600,
a boy was born in Scotland at Dunfermline Palace - he was the second son and the third child of the King of Scotland, James VI.
Few could have predicted he would one day be king, not just of Scotland, but also of England and Ireland. No one could have foretold this boy would die on the scaffold for treason…
This boy was of course, Charles James Stuart, who would become Charles I.
Let’s turn back the clock and find out more about Charles’ upbringing and what events and traumas from his childhood influenced his future decisions…

Today we bring to you our interview with Callum Watson, and we’ll be discussing the Battle of Flodden Field, wherein the Scottish King James IV was massively defeated by the English army which is ironic since the King of England Henry VIII was in France fighting the French. What’s even more ironic, is the fact that the Scottish King was married to Henry’s sister Margaret, from whom our King Charles III is descended.
Let’s travel back to 1513 and and demystify this conflict, welcome back, Callum!
Callum Watson is an author and historian. He works at the site of the Battle of Bannockburn, and has recently published a book on the Battle of Bannockburn with Pen & Sword.
He also contributed to the Channel 5 documentary ‘Britain’s Lost Battlefields’, AND Callum also has worked as a historical advisor on the ‘Outlaw King’ film for Netflix.

Right trusty and well beloved, we greet you well!
On the 16th November 1272 Henry III died after a 56 year reign.
His rule spanned the better part of the 13th century, and took England
from the disaster that was King John to the conquering macho that was Edward I.
Neatly sandwiched in between these two vastly different kingships is Henry III,
the man who gave us Westminster Abbey , peace with France and Scotland;
and Parliament, as a regular place of meetings for government officials.
Henry may not have the best posthumous PR, but we’re here to fix that.
