I just love watching your videos. I’m learning so much from you. You are also a very beautiful lady and one my favorite historians .❤
Im just so confused on why she keeps saying nine labors of Hercules... there were twelve.
Right it's so bizarre
Add that to a catalogue of mistakes she has
why the Hercules looks like a Chinese man?
Into heritage? Everyone who's interested should check my videos out on my channel. I travel up and down the country in all kinds of weather documenting my trips on Castles, Manor houses, Churches & anything else heritage.

That's what I said!!
9 labours???? Lucy is a bit lacking in Greek mythology methinks.
Twelve labours!!!!
Hercules had to perform 12 labours not 9
Kirsch Rot she may have slipped off her greek mythology...but I still love her.😁

Thank you very, very much for those insights in Bolsover Castle and his creator, William Cavendish. It will help me a lot to write my novel about this great Master of Manege Riding and nobel man of the 17th century.
I think King John built the original structure here

#8:23 William Cavendish was not a duke during Charles 1st reign, he became a duke more than 20 years later during the reign of Charles the 2nd
Thank god someone else noticed! Also, when discussing events that took place in 1634 it is wrong of her to speak of him as William Cavendish , given that ever since 1628, he had been Earl of Newcastle (then created Marquess of N. in 1643, and Duke of N. in 1665). A peers name is his title (witness Peers signing letters by the title, not the surname). It is an annoying recent tendency among academics to speak of such Peers (probably in order to make them more relatable, or out of ignorance of what mattered howmuch in early modern societies) as if they were ordinary firstname-surname blokes who just happened to have the never-again-to-be-mentioned job of Duke/Marquess/Earl/etc., the way you would say "John Smith, who was the postmaster of Piddlington". ..
And on a more substantial note, while I really enjoyed the documentary and Lucy Worsley's style of presentation, the punch line, though nicely constructed and technically correct in the most narrow sense (yes, he never became Master of the Horse), is really massively misleading - because only 4 years after this royal recption, Charles I instead gave the Earl of Newcastle an even more important position by making him governor (that is, head of the education) of the Prince of Wales (future Charles II). In other words, the king was so far from considering Newcastle or "Cavendish" a man without style or capabilities (as implied here) that he literally gave him his eldest son to educate...
