Bloody Mary Video


Watch The Most Evil Women in History - Bloody Mary Tudor in Educational & How-To  |  View More Free Videos Online at Veoh.com

Fans of Mary Tudor may be pleased to know that Channel 5's programme "Bloody Mary - The Most Evil Women in History" is now available on the internet (apologies for the advert that appears at the beginning). The title gives away its intent to cast Mary in a bad light, and the narrators' script is particularly poor, but it does contain commentary from the Tudor Historians David Loades, Steven Gunn, Diarmaid MacCulloch and John Cooper. Loades in particular is playing up for the cameras but it does help you to become familiar with them and their points of view.

PS: Stop Pres: David Loades has now written "The Tudors for Dummies"! If anyone gets a copy of it, let us know what it's like...
PPS: Here is a book review of Eric Ives' recently published "Lady Jane Grey, a Tudor Mystery" by Steven Gunn
PPPS: Here is a bibliography of Tudor historians that A2 students in particular may find useful.
