Love this show! Brings History to life. Can you do one on Elizabeth I’s foreign policy?
MargaretSavage via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 04/25/24
Love this series - makes history come to life in a real & accessible way. Love hearing the stories, details and insights of the people behind the titles and places. Highly engaging, and great topics. A particularly fabulous mini-series on the “Queens” - who they were as women not just “wives”...Read full review »

I just listened to the grace and favor apartments in Hampton Court. When you do such a podcast, please remember that we are not with you, and cannot see what you see. Please be more descriptive in your discussion of these apartments. For example, the size, in feet or meters of the rooms would be...Read full review »

Really love this series with the 6 queens. Absolutely brilliant! Please could you do a podcast with Bloody Mary. There’s so many with Elizabeth 1st, her half sister but not many with Mary. Tracey Borman is the best historian! Look forward to hearing more.

Listening as we prepare to visit London-great job! Just enjoyed the Tower of London Chapel episode and found the host’s passion for his subject endearing and informative. Can’t wait!

Amazing series - would love more!

I loved the episodes about the Six Tudor Queens. The guests were fabulous and having the discussions in places associated with each Queen added a unique layer. Please also do this for Mary I, Elizabeth I, Jane Dudley (nee Grey), and Elizabeth Tudor - the remaining Tudor Queens.

Loved the series on the six queens, so much new detail and so interesting to hear about how their lives connected to Hampton Court. Tracey Borman is a great host too!

You have fantastic voices to listen to. Great Job

I absolutely loved the series on the Six Tudor Queens. Tracy Borman is an incredible host and the guests she interviewed only added to the brilliance of the series! Please create more in depth episodes like these! I’m eagerly awaiting the next deep dive!

Great podcast, very interesting and informative. Was great to look at each queen individually and how she may of been .

This series on the six Tudor queens was brilliant. It was fascinating to learn about and view history from the perspective of each woman; each in her own right as a person and not simply as ‘Queen Consort’. More such podcasts please; meaning from this type of perspective. Thank you.

I’ve enjoyed this podcast in the past, but Tracy Borman’s new series on the Tudor queens is fantastic. How wonderful to listen to historical people, places and ideas discussed by world- class historians.
TA traveler via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/21/23
The subject matter is presented in engaging ways that are both delightful and fun. What vivid detail! Love this podcast.
BeeSmirk via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/14/23
This show is let down by the presenters sounding as if their audience are about five years old. The emphasis on being jolly is nauseating and makes the majority of episodes almost impossible to listen to. A great shame because has the potential to be a great podcast.
Crocsimia via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 12/14/23
Fantastic and so informative.
Lydzh13 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 11/28/23
When I read Tracy Borman is involved, I know it’s going to be a good show to watch/listen to. She never disappoints. This show is no exception. Listening to it strait through!
Krsadows via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/12/23
This is a very mixed podcast. It’s wonderful to hear experts talk about fascinating topics. I particularly appreciate A Space I Love which I find both fascinating and touching; I could listen to Lee Prosser and Alden Gregory for hours. However, the episodes which are just recordings of public...Read full review »

Just a brilliant discussion with Dr. Elizabeth Norton. We are given the opportunity to view the world of the Tudor woman and her role in it. Katherine of Aragon happily discussed as not the discarded wife but as strong woman. With a couple of interesting questions I’ll leave for the listener....Read full review »

I am now obsessed with this podcast, so excited for the new six queens series. This is a really good history podcast that definitely packs a punch!
Lilli (Bee) via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 10/19/23
Absolutely enthralled by this series -the passion your brilliant curators have for their chosen topics shines through. Every nook and cranny of the fantastic buildings in the HRP portfolio seems to have a story to tell and I’m totally here for it all!
ritealot via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 10/15/23
This is such a wonderful, engaging podcast, particularly the “A Space I Love” miniseries. Thank you for putting together episodes I look forward to listening to as soon as they drop!
LewellynT via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/08/23
I am beyond thrilled that I have found this podcast because I greatly admire Lucy Worsley. She has such enthusiasm for her work and it is contagious!! She seems at times to be able to read my mind and answer a question in my thoughts thousands of miles away! When she was doing a documentary...Read full review »

It’s so interesting to get a peek into the famous palaces and the lives behind them.

Really enjoying the new mini-series - really evocative insights from curators, especially the bits where they go behind the scenes!
HutchLH via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 07/29/23
I love how intimate this podcast is. I feel as though I’m getting a private tour from historians. I’ve learned so many interesting facts.
drdebaua via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/27/23
I love this series and the details shared by the experts.
Digitallison via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 07/26/23
These podcasts reveal all sorts of stories about places we thought we knew already… makes me want to go back and take another look!
Wight Writer via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 07/19/23
Love this podcast. The knowledge that is shared is amazing. I especially loved the episode I. Which Matthew Storey talks about the ceremonial dress collection - his enthusiasm is palpable!

Ooooooo I am so happy about this podcast. I can’t get enough.
CHJ27 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/29/23
The interviewer for the episode on “Behind-the-Scenes in the Conservation Studio” should reconsider if whispering is appropriate for a podcast. All the conservators she interviewed spoke clearly while the interviewer literally whispered her questions getting quieter and quieter as the podcast...Read full review »

Really interesting and love listening to all the details about all the different characters in our history

I live in the United States and have never been to England. This podcast gives me some great history lessons. Thanks

This is proof that not everything can be turned into a podcast… I’m sure they were wonderful events to attend in person though
lucy.jayne.frost via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 04/10/23
This is just a fabulous podcast! It’s nice to hear about Tracy and Lucy in the 21 questions and the fact that they’ve NEVER lost their passion and enthusiasm for history. I, for one, would LOVE to hear and learn what the PhD students are researching. Thank you all so much for bringing this to...Read full review »

You never know what you are going to get on this podcast, but it is always interesting, and often entertaining and personal. I hope you take up Lucy’s recommendation to talk to the doctoral students about what they are researching at Hampton Court Palace.
GeorgianaNZ via Apple Podcasts · New Zealand · 03/10/23
Wonderful listen about history and historic buildings in the UK. Thank you for such a well-researched podcast. Absolutely fascinating!!

Just finished Ms. Worsley presentation of the Kings staircase and I was briefly transported back to this past June when I visited England and Kensington Palace.

I normally enjoy this podcast but the Space I Love mini series is at a new level - binged the whole thing in one go. Hope there are more episodes like this in the future.
anonreview1781 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/01/23
Always a superior listen .. for those of us who may get into these places once or twice in a lifetime these curator talks from within the spaces with details .. you may never hear anywhere else . Something you can count on..
pmerrell75 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/22/23
As a history buff and reader of all things royal, these palaces are all on my bucket list. Not sure if I will ever get there, but listening to this podcast puts context to the pages I read. Please keep up the good work!

I have thoroughly enjoyed this podcast. I feel transported and included in a special club. The “Places I Love” mini series is the very best.

I’ve been a fan on the podcast for several years. I have been loving the recent series, especially the new one “A Space I Love”. It’s always fascinating to hear from the curators and I can’t wait to hear more.
ktb2024 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/19/22
Would be better as conversations or interviews, but these unique topics still are quite interesting in lecture format.
Really2me via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/17/22
I love history and listening to podcasts so this is great to combine the two. Lucy Worsley is so knowledgeable and engaging. Her books and TV shows are great and listening to her here is equally enjoyable.

I am so glad I came across this! Some audio quality is not as good as the recording is from live events in the past, but the topics are fascinating and while all the historians there are worth a listen, Lucy Worsley is amazing as always x
