Do you recognise this castle in Suffolk? It's where so-called 'Bloody Mary' or Mary Tudor gathered her troops to seize the throne. Lucy Worsley is re-investigating Bloody Mary's reputation on BBC 2 in the final part of #LucyWorsleyInvestigates! @lucyworsley.bsky.social

Let’s get something straight. Sir Thomas Parr was not born the same year his father died (1483) so that’s another strike against this writer’s book about Parr. Sorry. Pen & Sword (their publisher) originally asked me to write a book about Parr years back. But here we are; it’s 2025!
