I love 10th-14th century European history.. always have. Isabella of France certainly counts as one of the most important of the times.
-
She sure was a SURVIVOR! Thank You! ✨🦩⚜️💎
-
Yet another well researched, well written and well produced video. Thoroughly enjoyed. Thank you.
-
Had she not let herself into that entanglement w Roger Mortimer I think her reputation would’ve been that of a saviour. Nevertheless, she was a strong woman, and one whose story is fascinating! Icl, she ranks higher in my “best to worst Queens Consort of England” list than she maybe should, but ultimately I feel sympathy for her situation and admire her strength
-
A very misunderstood woman but her son managed to bring glory to England and their family.
-
This is awesome. This is the first time I have heard of Isabella of France.
-
Wonderfully told story. I'm team Isabella.
-
Well, I would become a she wolf too, if someone had taken my 3 youngest kids away as hostages!! The mama bear in me would have been even more brutal!
-
The Accursed Kings by Maurice Druon covers the whole French family including the life and times of Isabella and her family. There was a tv series many years as well. Absolutely fascinating. They were so corrupt!
-
Superb as always! She had little choice but to adapt and fight for herself.
-
Thank you. I think Isabella would have been revered as a heroine if she had just bought Edward the prince back to England by herself. Perhaps one could understand the poor woman wanting some romance in her sad life but , with Mortimer, she made a bad mistake. Her son made an excellent king even with, unknowingly, causing the way for England to descend into civil war. Sometimes having too many sons is a problem. 🙏🙏👵🇦🇺

She's my 22nd great grandmother. Philip the Fair is my 23rd GGF. Ironic. I'm also descended from grandmasters of the Knights Templar.

Thanks for a riveting story
-
Great story of a very interesting Queen , the mother and grandmother of Englands finest King and his son and warrior Edward of Woodstock oh and no mention of a hot poker , nice one 👍
-
really enjoyed this, I read a book as a child called the She Wolf of France, not the newer ones. I remember understanding her need to control her world when no one else would. Thanks for the balanced presentation.
-
Thank you am French and had never heard. Of her until now❤
-
Edward II kinda prefered men skilled in the art of war and military tactics.
-
Great video keep it up you're doing amazing things 😁💯
-
What an extraordinary documentary! A pleasure to the eyes and years, and with a lot of information about those distant and so frequently troubled times. Thanks to The People Profiles for another great video. 39:31-39:53 Those were tough times, to put it mildly. Finally, a round of applaude for Gareth Johnson, a superb narrator.
