Our Royal Story

In episode four, Julia looks at our Royal story. Britain has an almost continuous monarchy stretching back over 1000 years, which give us a unique royal story that has shaped our national identity. Julia's list reflects this long running royal soap opera and begins with the supposed home of legendary King Arthur. Real man or myth, the ruins at Tintagel mark the birthplace of our Royal story and here Julia learns the sword skills any Dark Age king would have needed.
