Yesss, new History Hit. I have a subscription, but I still can’t get enough history. It’s some kind of bizarre long-life obsession I’ve learned to live with.

They're all great, but Arundel is breathtaking.

what a great start, the beautiful Alice Loxton and Hever castles, though how Bodiam castle didn't end up on this list or Dover or the Tower of London even

That lady has studied Windsor castle so well! Extremely knowledgeable lady ❤

[jasoncallow]

Warwick Castle and Dover castle are my favourites. Dover even has a Roman lighthouse, which was built in the 2nd century.

I heard a rumour there are one or two castles in Scotland... Have you heard this?

[readMEinkbooks]

Why did they stop the Challenge of the Champion at coronations? That would be SO cool to still have it!

Great series of documentaries, amazing job.
The only one I found disappointing was the one about Chillingham and all the ghost nonsense. I get the "what we learn about medieval society" and studying old supersticions is a valid tool for history. But all of the learning happened in the last 1-2 minutes of conclusion while everything before read like a spooky halloween story and the bearded "ghost hunter", while seeming a very nice fellow, has a job that is somewhere on the intersection of conman and entertainer. Id much rather have learned something about the castle's own real history, not the ghost story that came about by supersticious people in history or the modern tourist industry.
