19. Lady Jane Grey - The 9 Day Queen

Send me a messageWhen we talk about the Tudor’s we tend to think of Henry VIII and Queen Elizabeth I.Two larger than life monarchs, whose reigns (covering 83 years) account for 70% of the Tudor dynasty’s reign.But sandwiched between these two towering monarchs, are three more people who were proclaimed King or Queen of England and who are often forgotten. Two were crowned - Edward VI and Mary I.One was proclaimed, never crowned and is often called the “Nine Days Queen” - Lady Jane Grey.This is, very briefly, their story.Join my Supporter's ClubSupport the show
