On this episode of the Alnwick Castle Podcast, we're marking the occasion of Queen Elizabeth II's Platinum Jubilee with an episode dedicated to exploring the many connections Alnwick Castle has had with British monarchs of the past. Host Daniel is joined once again by Jeni to look into the Castle's royal history, from Norman barons supplying knights for Henry I, to Harry Hotspur's famous rebellion against Henry IV, to the 5th Earl of Northumberland providing sporting entertainment for Henry VII's daughter in the Alnwick Parks on her way to be married in Scotland. There are stories of kings and queens not called Henry too, of course - you'll also hear how the Castle faced off against King John, and how it has celebrated past jubilees for George III and Queen Victoria.
