This is the story of our Queens’ Consort, the wives of our kings, from 1070 to 1952.
Many of them have played a role in shaping the monarchy, at Windsor Castle and beyond.
Eleanor of Castile, Isabella of Valois, Catherine of Aragon, and Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz are just some of those who have made their mark.
This talk takes a brief look at each of the wives and discovers some interesting stories about them.
Since 1070, when William the Conqueror started to build Windsor Castle, 37 ladies have been Queen Consort to the Kings of England and Britain.
And the queens who married for love.
We meet them all and discover their personalities.
Tickets for this online talk are £8 for a single viewer and £12 for two or more viewers on one screen.
