LISTEN: A Right Royal Podcast

Wolf Hall's ultimate fact vs fiction and Christmas at Windsor Castle

Hello, Royal Clubbers, it’s Millie here with the latest episode of the wonderful A Right Royal Podcast.

As you know by now, I’m a big fan fan of royal history (this week’s military-themed The Royal Archive is a must read, though I say so myself!). If you’re a fan of royal history too, then today’s podcast will delight you as it’s all about the BBC's new Tudor drama: Wolf Hall: The Mirror and the Light.

Adapted from the late Hilary Mantel’s beloved final novel, podcast hosts Emily, Andrea and Emmy explore the series’ historical truthfulness with special guest, Historic Royal Palaces head of research Professor Anthony Musson. With the festive season round the corner, Anthony also reveals how Christmas was celebrated in the Tudor court of King Henry VIII.

If this weren’t enough, the podcast features Christmas at a more current royal court, as Andrea and Emily take a trip to Windsor Castle to look at its magnificent decorations, including a 100-year-old dollhouse belonging to Queen Mary.

Finally, our hosts catch up on the latest royal news, including Queen Camilla's beautiful tiara at a recent diplomatic reception, Prince William's latest efforts to end homelessness, updates on Princess Kate's carol service, and the alarming royal robbery at Windsor Castle.
