In this month's historian interview, with Helen Carr we explore the life of a man you probably didn't know was so interesting.....John of Gaunt! Known mainly as the father of the usurper Henry Bolingbroke and of the b*****d Beaufort line of Margaret Beaufort, through whom Henry VII claimed legitimacy for his claim to be King of England. There's lots more to this man than you may realise, not least that he was King of Castile and it is from he that Katherine of Aragon claimed descent from kings of England (his father being Edward III). I hope you find this interview as interesting to listen to as I found it to record.

Why did Henry VIII have two wives executed? We can learn a lot about the circumstances which led to the executions of Anne Boleyn and, 6 years later, her cousin Catherine Howard, by comparing and contrasting the two.

Gareth Russell explores the events surrounding the downfall of each of the ill-fated Queens of Henry VIII in this new perspective on a familiar story and reveals a surprising fact...that Henry wrote a play about Anne Boleyn's "sexual misdemeanours" before her trial!
