OMGosh are we wilfully niche for you this time listener! What starts off as an episode about The Percy Family, turns into a deep dive on Wressle Castle and it's ownership!
Some say this conflict over Wressle Castle starts the feud between the families Percy & Neville; which in turn may have given the Wars of the Roses a big old push in the fight direction.
This episode is ram packed with interesting tidbits listener! Why it has contract law, local and not so local caretakers, and many familiar characters from History.
Why there's Henry Percy (you can call him Harry Hotspur), his son Henry Percy, and who can forget Henry Percy's son, Henry Percy?
You'll laugh with Henry VI, cry with Richard Duke of York, and be slightly weirded out by the Kingmaker himself, Richard Neville Earl of Warwick.
If we could bequeath a wressle castle shaped prezzie to ZapSplat for music and sfx we would!
Big Scotty Buckley get all the roses for his tracks Absolution and Legionnaire
Brian Bolger gets a cinnamon bun from St Albans market for his track Black Mass
and Lord Fast Fingers Rob Tristram gets to keep being our friend.
