- Episode 4: Grigori Rasputin, The Russian Mystic
Summary: There is a lot of mysticism and legend that surrounds Grigori Rasputin. Was he immune to poison? A magical healer? What was his relationship with the Imperial Romanov family? - Episode 3: Cleopatra, The Last Pharaoh
Summary: From poisonous asps, to being snuck around in a rolled-up rug, to a tragic love affair – Cleopatra’s story is full of mythic legends. But who was the real Last Pharaoh of Ancient Egypt? Captivating, empowering, and so much more… - Episode 2: The Queen of Nine Days, Lady Jane Grey
Summary: Heavy is the head that wears the crown… but what happens to the head that *almost* wears the crown? If Lady Jane Grey could sit here and describe herself in five words or less, I think they’d be: hardcore Protestant and future martyr. - Episode 1: The White Queen, Elizabeth Woodville
Summary: Perhaps it’s the fairytale love story between her and the King, or it’s the tragic mystery behind the murders of her two sons, the Princes in the Tower… Either way, Elizabeth Woodville had quite a dramatic life. - Welcome to Tea On History!
It’s time to regale you with bygone stories of the past… Join Elizabeth as she sits down with a cuppa tea to *spill* the tea on some of the most fascinating (and scandalous) lives in history. Stay tuned for more!
