Sinead, good to see you again. When I make it to the UK someday you will be my first choice for a tour guide, with coffee's of course. This tour was enjoyable, great narration and just the right amount of information, top notch job. OOP's break's over, back to work.....

Thank you for the fascinating tour, Sinead. The de la pole family are remembered very much in Yorkshire (Hull) area. (My home city) The family held huge swathes of land - they are still remembered in Hull by street names ie. De La Pole avenue & de la pole hospital . Margaret de la pole was considered to be one of the last elderly stalwarts dating from the wars of the roses whose family line could oppose the Tudor claim for the throne. Henry felt at the time that there was a significant threat from this family and supporters. I think of “A man for all seasons” stunning film about Sir Thomas More when I watched your tour. Fabulous!

Be sure to book a walking tour with them. Seeing a video is a great thing, but experiencing their undoubted charm, warmth and knowledge in person is completely different again.

Excellent video! As a Tudor history buff, you've made all of the locations real, placing us there - up close and personal, instead of the still photos and old illustration's that don't do justice to the dark history of these political executions sites. Like time travelers, we stand in the very place where the crowds and condemned long ago witnessed the bloody end of nobility and dissidents.

Just as a point of interest Sinead - did you know it is still a capital offence (and still on the ancient statute books and has never been repealed) to not eat mint sauce with lamb!!! Apparently, in the middle ages when the very poor would 'rustle' a sheep from the landowner, would butcher it and eat it there wasn't ready access to mint (I know - today it grows in profusion - but not in the middle ages) and so only the rich would eat mint sauce with lamb. If you were caught eating lamb without mint sauce it was assumed you had no right to the sheep and you could be executed for it. Capital punishment for sheep-stealing was relealed in 1832 but the mint sauce clause was forgotten and not repealed. So - always make sure you have mint sauce with your lamb :)

Reginald Pole future Archbishop of Canterbury (1st and last catholic to hold the post) under Mary I not Reginald Pope! Not only was deemed a traitor because of his opposition to Henry VIII’s reforms but he was also thought to be ungrateful because Henry had basically sponsored and paid for Reginald’s education at the university of Oxford and Padua in Italy after a relatively poor childhood this was before Margaret Pole got her Salisbury title and land back after the death of her husband . I know it may be nitpicking but this is the second time this channel has got names wrong! 😱😱😱

@judithm375 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks for this tour. I lived for a while in London and visited the Tower but never saw half of this. I feel especially sad for the Second World War German spy hanged in the Tower. He was only doing his duty, as he saw it, by his country. I think he was the spy mentioned by the hangman Albert Pierrepont, who hanged him, in Pierrepont's autobiography. He was mentioned surprisingly unsympathetically. Pierrepont clearly didn't see it my way. Perhaps enduring a war hardens one's outlook. I also feel sad for Margaret de la Pole. I suspect the story about her running from the executioner is either a gross exaggeration or a totally fabricated tale put about by the Tudors. I've heard it said that at that time being afraid to die was seen as a sign of not daring to face God's judgement and the story put her in a bad light. I think Henry VIII not only took her life but took away her good name after death as well.
