@thehistoryguy.bsky.social Please can you help settle a discussion my Mum and I are having: When Elizabeth I was crowned queen, was she proclaimed as "Queen Elizabeth I" or just as "Queen Elizabeth" or maybe even "Queen Elizabeth, the first of her name"?

£75 per ticket in the Swan Theatre is ridiculous. Far too expensive. The RSC have finally out priced me and stopped me from being able to afford attending

@sjpemberton.bsky.social @reece-shearsmith.bsky.social My Dad and I had a go at the cryptic crossword. It took us a good couple of hours and our brains hurt, but we're proud we managed to finish it! 😁🐇

Inside No 9 Live Stage/Fright was phenomenal, hilarious, emotional, tense, scary, everything one could expect from Reece and Steve. An experience to remember 🐇🎭 @reece-shearsmith.bsky.social @sjpemberton.bsky.social

'Much Ado About Nothing' and 'Hamlet' AGAIN?! This will be the third adaptations of each of these in 10 years 🤦‍♀️ As much as I love the plays, Shakespeare did write 37 plays - please can they not put on something different?! I'm losing my patience with the RSC so much 😭
RSC’s Summer 2025 season is announced and will include five new Shakespeare productions plus festive family show, The BFG adapted by Tom Wells

@tracyborman.bsky.social Just booked to see you at the Harvington Hall History Festival again 😁 Hans Holbein is my favourite painter/artist of all time! 🤩

I seem to be coming away from a certain theatre not enjoying the plays more and more 😭💔

@thehistoryguy.bsky.social I've often wondered, and been asked by pupils, what's the difference between the Dark Ages, Middle Ages and Medieval Age? Is there a difference or are they all the same name for the same period of history?

It'll be amazing to see Ed Bennett again 🤩🎭

I've just caught up with this and, oh my god, I need time to digest what I've seen. Absolutely phenomenal! Has anyone else seen it? I need to discuss this
Believe me, you’re not going to want to miss this…

Episode 4 and I've officially given up on The Mirror and the Light. Creating an imaginary daughter for Cromwell, Cromwell crying so publically, Cromwell declaring he should have married Jane? What a load of rubbish!
Is anyone else struggling with The Mirror and the Light? I struggled with Wolf Hall so I half expected to struggle with this series too

5 years since I first saw 'The Boy in the Dress'?! Honestly wasn't sure if I'd like this show, but I absolutely LOVED it 😁🎭 @rufushound.wtf

@rufushound.wtf I've just heard you're not performing today. Hope you're not too bad, hopefully see you on another day x
