Mary I, Elizabeth I (as Princess) and the soon-to-be-beheaded Lady Jane Grey all meeting up. How would that go?Today we're sorting out the historical truth about Mary I, and the future Good Queen Bess, as well as their cousin Jane.Please welcome Ros, Jo and Peter!Find the Play:https://allevents.in/harrisburg/three-queens/200028723844953https://www.rosamundgravelle.com/https://www.instagram.com/rosamund_gravelle/Find Dr Johanna:https://drjohannastrong.ca/https://www.instagram.com/_johanna.strong_/Find Dr Peter:https://drpeterstiffell.com/https://www.instagram.com/p.stiffell97/Read the Tudors:https://www.amberley-books.com/katharine-of-aragon-spanish-princess.htmlhttps://www.amberley-books.com/if-any-person-will-meddle-of-my-cause.htmlhttps://www.amberley-books.com/anna-duchess-of-cleves-9781398103269.htmlhttps://www.pen-and-sword.co.uk/The-Tudors-by-Numbers-The-Stories-and-Statistics-Behind-Englands-Most-Infamous-Royal-Dynasty-Hardback/p/23448/aid/1238https://www.pen-and-sword.co.uk/Womens-Lives-in-the-Tudor-Era-Hardback/p/24437/aid/1238https://www.pen-and-sword.co.uk/Educating-the-Tudors-Hardback/p/22338/aid/1238https://www.pen-and-sword.co.uk/Eating-with-the-Tudors-Food-and-Recipes-Hardback/p/23659/aid/1238 .Find Baroque:https://www.ifitaintbaroquepodcast.art/https://www.instagram.com/ifitaintbaroquepodcast/Support Baroque:https://www.patreon.com/c/Ifitaintbaroquepodcast/https://buymeacoffee.com/ifitaintbaroqueIf you would like to join Natalie on her walking tours in London with Reign of London:Tudors & Stuarts:https://www.getyourguide.com/london-l57/royal-london-tudors-stuarts-walking-tour-t481355For more history fodder please visit https://www.ifitaintbaroquepodcast.art/ and https://www.getyourguide.com/reign-of-london-s252243/ Hosted on Acast.
