The uncle of the princes in the Tower wasn't "Richard, Duke of York"; that title was already held by the young king's brother, Richard of Shrewsbury, the younger of the two princes.
The uncle was Richard, Duke of *Gloucester* , who became King Richard III.
What a wonderful way to see historic places - by air.
I am a Filipina and I am really fascinated to study the history of Europe, especially the history of the United Kingdom.
Beautifully photographed and narrated, this film manages to intertwine shots of our beautiful country and magnificent buildings with the history of our Kings and Queens. 🇬🇧🏴
Great Britain is such an enchanting land. I wish I had the financial means to spend months exploring all its treasures, nature, architecture, history, anthropology and culture.
Britons, please cherish your unique heritage.

Colonizer nation
@@memethingz6004 Aaannnd...? Does it make it lesser enchanting? Just so you know, so the brits were invaded, occupied, plundered and enslaved by the Roman Empire. That's how History rolled back then and none of us can go back in time and undo the past mistakes, we can only learn from them, correct our ways and move forward as a more humane society. Holding grudges against a group of people that have effectively done nothing to you is petty, stupid and the root of constant division. We face global challenges that must be addressed by all peoples and nations and nothing gets done in a toxic vengeful environment. Stay real.
we need to be a republic again,these so called royals area disgrace and should be disposed of.
@@david6532 It's your call, mate, but as a citizen of a republican country i tell you footing the bill for the perks and security of 3 or 4 current+former living presidents is more expensive than your Royals. Their networth is indeed outrageous but we know it's mostly all assets of the Crown (historical estates, jewels and art), stuff that is to be kept by the Union, either kingdom or republic. Their networth won't revert as income to the british people, but as cultural heritage and thus more expenses creating new instititions to maintain those assets.
They have no saying in politics or policies anyways and they make great diplomatic "door openers" to british business and worldwide interests through their connections and influence. Plus they are a feature of stability and comfort in troubled times, i guess.
But hey, i'm all for people deciding how and by whom they should be governed as a democracy fanboy i am, just weigh the pros and cons, please. Such drastic changes in the political system can go sour sometimes. Beware the corrupt vultures are always flying around to feed on the carrion prey of division and chaos. Stay safe
As an American, I find this documentary fascinating. Thank you so much for this video. Such wonderful views from the air. A wonderful history lesson of the castles, etc. Enjoy seeing the Tudor style housing.
And I, as a very old Brit living in the US, ALSO enjoyed this & learned a great deal that I had either never been told or did not remember - this is a great way to show the history in total, and the overview of so many castles & special buildings is really helpful in understanding their structure & why they were built. Thank you - this is very valuable & I wish had been available to my teachers as a child - the big picture should be where teaching history starts.
@@veronicaroach3667 ... I agree, I don't know how old you are saying you're 'very old', but maybe I am a tad younger then. At school, we only had the brief story of William the conqueror and the King Harold story which is all I remember. It would have been so much nicer and interesting to hear a more informative and full account like this.
Do you have interest in the Royal families who most directly participated in making the American colonies?
Theres Mutts in the post-[story] prison colony systems. Ones who Prince Eric from the Little Mermaid is based off of.

I live in South London and am in awe of what this country, in particular this part has to offer. I live a short drive from so many wonderful castles like Hever, Rochester, Upnor, Bodiam and Pevensey to name but a few. I take my son a few times a month to these places and base our holidays around where we can visit. My English Heritage and National Trust memberships are well used! Days out like this are so important to me and my kiddo. Fab video, I've made a list!
Bambraugh castle is beautiful, visited twice. I love England rich history.
Bamburgh but you're right
This is a great documentary of weaving all of the British monarchs and their legacy they left behind without getting carried away with the details. If anyone needs a refined history lesson, and if they've studied bits before hand, this will definitely be an educational and handy documentary to see. -From the US.
POOR DOCUMENTARY ALL ABOUT THE ENGLISH MONARCHS
RIP our queen
One of the best documentaries seen in awhile
The architecture is stunning. The history equally as interesting. Henry was quite a character
Really? Which one?
The architecture is stunning, the history and their present is horrible… self absorbed, corrupted rulers hungry for power that gain their wealth from sweat of other… if you disagree with me please look at Elizabeth’s brats today Charles and Andrew.
Politic all over the world is the same
if you mean the 8th one you are deluded,he was a tyrant a latter day hitler a murderer and worse.
well done. you went though a number of our kings and queens and the homes they built over the years in less then an hour. really really enjoyed this
The history of England is very rich and fascinating to me. As an American, I love to study the history as well as the architect of the historical castles. It almost seems mythical or magical in a way, that stirs the imagination
Let's study!!!
@@Benyikoko 7778uuiļ
@BAMA Fan USMC Technically it is part of our history as well,if you really think about it.
Bet it is your clown
Inspired the Game of Thrones too
The fact that Deal Castle was built in the shape of the Tudor Rose is the ultimate flex! 🏵️👌🏻😆
very impressive architecture
I am an American, but I thank you very much for this video. What a great view from the air, and what an extremely well done narrative, and history lesson.
Wow that was a wonderful documentary. Mixing my love of history, architecture and aerial views. Thank you so much for sharing. 👍🇬🇧
I went to a few of these castles as a child I found it hard to appreciate the magnatude architecture and history. Now I'm older I would love to re visit them all.
very interesting beautiful and unique way of telling the history of the monarchy over the years through the history of our treasured buildings. thanks for the upload :)
Enjoyed this immensely, but the volume was low, so when the (many, many) ads came on I got blasted out.
I am a big fan of the series game of thrones and the intro reminds me so much of the lore. There are so many similarities. “William the conqueror built castles like no one had ever seen”
Yes much of Game of Thrones was inspired by real dynasties but switched up with invention and fantasy and magic
Aegon never built a single castle
@@bemnet7149 Not with his own hands, of course, but he started the building of The red keep.
I love this documentary!!!😘😘😘😘😘
Long live the glorious GB!
This was very well done. It provides beautiful photography of the castles and the background to events of the kings and queens. The narrator provides facts without hype and drama. Thank you for posting
That was very enjoyable! Thank you!
Beautiful Castle and beautiful landscape, I really loved it so much, that I want to build in my own too!
Great video with accurate captions about the history of England. Kudos!
Great history indeed and i love our royal Britain 🇬🇧
What a beautiful tyrannical state.
Thanks for this opportunity to be a part of commonwealth family appreciate 🙏 ❤ 💙 🙌 💕
This was my favorite thorough documentary of the history well done!
That was enjoyable.
Very nice!
FANTASTIC video! Many thanks 💙👌🏼
A fascinating history. Love the architecture and history.
Excellent history! I learned a great deal today. Thank you!
Excellent, enjoyable and informative!
Wonderful documentary, full of great scenery. Long live the Queen!
screw all the royals i say get rid of these clowns
Fascinating video! Thank you for sharing ❤! King Harold was my 27th Great Grandfather. I'm humbled at my father's ancestry! We're related to almost every member of the royal family and of other royal families. King Charles is my 11th cousin! Etc. Im so very excited about the upcoming coronation 🎉! So much history, scandals, love and war, pomp and ceremony, tradition! My 6th Great Grandfather was born at the Palace of HolyroodHouse, etc. William the Conqueror was also a Grandparent!!! I love all of this! Even before I discovered my ancestry!!!! Thank you for sharing this video! ❤🎉
History is incredible,such things have to happen to have become!!
Wow! Great video! This was very interesting and beautiful scenery. King was brutal! Wish I would've learned this history in high school but I suppose I wouldn't have been as interested in this when I was in high school.
I like the scenery and history too. Real history is crazier than fiction. I have been to Italy, Germany, and Switzerland and it is amazing what they built.
I imagine you are American like me?
All we are taught about "History" in public schools is : 1.Pilgrims are good 2.everybody else but our slavey forefathers are awful.
They would never teach us this in American school.
I wish I would have learned this earlier as well!!
Wonderful video
Excellent! Thank you!
A beautiful documentary, beautiful landscapes and absolutely wonderful music.Wonderfully made document.All the best and a beautiful and safe future 🇬🇧👑🕊️Good Luck and respect.
Your welcome of course
That was so interesting! Love seeing all the historical places and learning about the inspiring history of the UK! God bless Queen Elizabeth. Praying for her stamina to keep her strong as she grieves for her beloved Duke of Edinburg. God willing I’ll be well and be able to see her smiling continence for her Platinum Jubilee!
She needs to let her son be king too, she is being selfish
I thumbs-downed a reply to you that I no longer see after a refresh-- With regard to anyone who might think Queen Elizabeth II is selfish for not "simply" handing over the crown to the thrown of England, to her son, you are wholly ignorant as to what that entails as well as ignorant to her Royal Majesty's pledge to the people of Great Britain on her inauguration. At that time she pledged a life long servitude to her peoples of England and its realms. That is not easily cast aside, despite her long age. In addition to it going against her pledge and coronation as Queen Monarch, I do believe it would require an act of Parliament to pass the crown. Which is akin to an passing an Act of Congress in the United States; something not easily obtained in any age.
I echo, Monica's sentiment; Long Live the Queen!!!
One of the best history documentaries I've ever seen. Thank you!
Beautiful!
I love the history of all these documentaries! Thank you for sharing them. In the next couple years I hope to move to England!
Buckingham Palace has a rather plain facade. It looks like a public building intended for teams of bureaucrats or maybe a hospital.
Your quite right in your view of the front. The main front we see now was added by Victoria and it completely enclosed John Nash’s beautiful bath stone cour d'honneur. This new wing was built from caen stone which eroded and darkened very quickly in the London smog. The architect for the new wing was Edward Blore who was famous for his cheap and practical but rather dull architecture. By the early 20th century this wing was completely black still in contrast with the beautiful bath stone regency palace that sits behind and was subsequently refaced in bright and hardy portland stone by Aston Webb. This was done along with a remodelling of the Mall and the installation of the Victoria memorial and was probably one of the last great pieces of public imperial architecture undertook before the rest of the 20th century really turned its back on imperialism in all forms. In practise and in art.
What we are left with looks like a bit like a railway terminus or town hall but I encourage you to visit the palace and tour the state rooms in the regency block behind. They are absolutely breathtaking and that is where you really get to still see the true Buckingham Palace.
@@manmaje3596 excellent response
@@leonstevens1382 Thank you architecture is a real passion of mine.
I love plain facades and straight lines..
Not the best house in Britain. Blenheim and Chatsworth are both better.
Absolutely beautiful and amazing the story of the monarchy of British ,
I enjoyed watching and learning about Britain .
So beautiful! Such a dream!
Beautiful all castle.
Amazing.....
Really good documentary, and incredible scenery :) One correction though - Bolton Castle (where Mary Queen of Scots was imprisoned) is in Wensleydale, North Yorkshire (not Northumberland). Bolton Castle is close to Middleham Castle, the childhood home of Richard III.
Excellent video! The amount of history in the UK is astounding! I would love to visit and see it all myself.
Superb.
*Superb All!
Bloody thoroughly enjoyed this
Amazing documentary.
37:27 love this camera work!
The Monarchy of England is the most loved royalty of the history.
And the most feared
Everyone else killed there’s off
@@winniedhaouadi1973 and so it should be my dear
@@ronniealex5523 most feard,?,
Andrew must be shitting in his pants about now?!
Very good narration.
Incredible epic story of our Royal legacy buildings beautifully crafted and narrated. Thoroughly enjoyed it. The work that contributed to it must have been emense, with permissions to fly in places I'd dream of filming. Awsome video and you have a new subscriber. ❤
AMAZING. 👑
Yes, we encourage each other indirectly.
Excellent
good history
Very interesting. I learned lots. But it skimmed over certain periods which was a shame. I wish we'd had this sort of thing when I was at school. I think I would have found history far more absorbing!
Thank You, Sue, for your repentance; everything you refer to you, regarding the topics you examine are exemplorary. God Bless You! I wish you a FANTASTIC 2023!
I love this video
Very interesting documentary, I always wonder how the origin of the monarchies, i got engaged in a castles in the USA called Biltmore house ,was beautiful but crazy leave in one.
Tiva Iglesias Diaz wow I’ve never heard of it; I’m going to look it up!!! What a cool, unique engagement!!! I always wondered about the monarchy too!!!
@@rebeccahowie7234 Hello. How are you doing?
The castle on the North East coast of England shown in the video which succumbed to Yorkist artillery bombardment is Bamburgh, pronounced "Bam-bruh" or "Bam-burruh", not "Bamber".
Beautiful castle 🏰 👌 😍 ❤
Beautiful Phoenecians Architecture ‼️
very nice
Gorgeous castle
Perfect
Awesome palaces... 🌐🇬🇧❤️
im in love with the view how charming
A nice documentary...but at times the background music overwhelmed the narrator.
Very cool presentation; informative and picturesque, this video gives a highly condensed version of English royal history from 1064 to 2011. My sole criticism is that a few misnomers and apocryphal anecdotes have been presented as fact. However, overall, I really enjoyed this beautiful overview (pun intended) of royal residences through the ages.
Beautiful castles
Hello everyone in commonwealth thanks for having me it's my pleasure to meeting royalty documentary 😀
Can you imagine living in such a enormous palace? I would love to explore such huge palaces ❤ much curiosity from 🇺🇸
Strikes me as a combination White House-Executive Office Building with maybe a lil whiff of a hotel thrown in, all with the feel that your Grandmother lived there. BOOOOoooooooOOOOOORINg. I’m sure the art is great, but even (especially?) museums get dull after a while.
The infamous "Gilded Cage"
I wouldn’t want to live there, but I love seeing the architecture.
A lot of rooms lol..the architecture is neat though..right..correct,I am blessed in some ways
Loved the information however the background music sometimes over shadowed the narrator had to turn on captions to get all of what was being said. :-)
I very wishing visiting every castle it's important for me.
Good luck! You can do it 🤗🤗🤗
In a single lifetime? That's a tall order. There are 4000 in Britain.
Wonderful💜💌Iluvit
And more history has been written, a new king and in time, a prince regent and future king. All my ancestors going back to my 34th great-grandfather, kings & queens of many countries..
I wish I had one of them to live in
Dream castle 🏰
I wonder if any of the royal family members visit any of these places?
Start watching at 9:00 and get educated!
Some of them are still inhabited/visited by the Royal Family!...... 👌🏻😉
@@ashotofmercury of course they do
Dear sir...I have just now.... seen your short video here to which you have my profound congratulations ;o) and yes Great Britain does have a splendid array of royal residencies and buildings , BUT these structures are no match to what other royal realms have i assure you...!! In my opinion Italy , Spain and especially France have a much more finer selection of royal residencies , the magnificent architecture and opulence is seen in every corner and in every inch of these architectural marvels...which in my opinion are still and always will be the epitome of grandness !! I myself am a direct descendent of that great and famous florentine family the Medici's and yes i am a great lover of history especially european history to which i have a high level of respect and admiration for and as for castles and residencies pertaining to my royal line , you need only go and visit my great ancestral italian gem of Florence to see and experience this !!! I thank you and again very well done for your production here !!! Visconte Raimondo de'Medici
I love florence and the renaisonce. The medicis and there money for buying art and michavelli. I agree with you, as a englishman i did prefer the ariel views of Italy. But on the all when it comes to cities i do prefer London as a city of old and new.
It's curious that you felt the need to mention the Spanish Armada, but failed to mention the English Armada the following year, which was as disastrous for the English as the Spanish one had been for Spain.
We have a lot to thank the French for. Beautiful architecture. Unfortunately, Britain's castles cannot protect us now from our enemies. Mind you , we had more kings and queens in one country then. Now there's an idea!
I would like to know what the music right at the beginning is. I love late Baroque music, but you can’t exactly use Shazam to find a piece of Classical music you like.
Istana yang sangat megah
The one’s who first had the Castles ect built were the REAL Kings & Queens. They had more money than we could even Imagine. You don’t see such wonders being built In today’s world.
When I converse n see them them or even browse through the history n architecture I don't ever look at it in terms of money,I just see buildings which may have some remodeling done as they had mentioned to me before,which is their decision on that place n she's had her position for a little ng time,unless she didn't want it anymore(she has breaks n time for herself,which is important) I haven't heard anything about her stepping aside at all..shrug..we all have various things in our lives that we want to experience n explore. Anyways I forgot what I was gonna say oh well eh shrug
What are your thoughts on who those people are?
I'm On the way Britain
The music at the beginning???
COISA MAIS LINDA A INGLATERRA E TODO REINO UNIDO . SOU FASCINADO PELA EUROPA , SONHO UM DIA CONHECER .
I feel stupidly drawn to it. My DNA shows 55% English with a sliver of Welsh and NW European. My mom was always reading up on the British monarchy and she always pointed out a Tudor house. One day she told be that we re related to them. Since I was young she didn't elaborate. Many years later I was in the library and at random opened a book about Henry VIII. The page was about his Irish mistress, Elizabeth Holland, who was probably really English. My Holland ancestors came from County Clare. After applying the other ancestor factors my DNA indicates that those Hollands from Ireland were English. Also Elizabeth was a name the entered into every subsequent generation. The sliver of Welsh and NW European indicates that it happened many generations before, like 500 years, pretty inconsequential. I'm just always intrigued by mystery.
A name doesn't tie or link you with British royals, that's absurd, go compare your dna with that of those British royals you're desperately trying to claim, you won't have any familial genetic relations being shared neolithic eurasian ancestry which all Europeans share
I'm just intrigued by the mystery. I actually eschew elitism. It's kind of fun to goad the elitists who used to be around me with it. Any connection is 500 years old and hardly striking. My mom wasn't a person to make things up when she said we're related to them.
@@lexyswope as I've proferred, your mother ostensibly claiming some putative ancestral kinship with one of the cadet branches of British royals, predicated solely on sharing a surname (a random name that many unrelated people carry, not dna which is scientific), doesn't negate the asinine parochial absurdity of attaching oneself to people with whom you share no ancestral ties with, who you don't even share dna with
@@hassanabdikarimmohamed2505 ah yes the ever angry mohamed lol
You’re just pissed because you could never in a billion years somehow be mistaken for anything royal except a royal pain in the ass lol. If you don’t like the royals or people who think they might be related then go somewhere else and quit bothering real people who deserve to live. Go crawl back down whatever hole you came from.
@@hassanabdikarimmohamed2505 Alright, Russel Brand, calm down.
The castle/palace stands roof in tact looks liveable & the "church crumbles 😮👀 that's FUCT UP!!!
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm not, the Battle of Hastings took Place 14 October 1066 according to the official Records! Not September.
