Actually really tall?

Had a charmed childhood?

Got kidnapped by a murderous lord?

Everybody knows that Elizabeth I had lots of admirers, refused to marry and that her army beat the Spanish Armada. But did you also know that:

Liz liked to lock up her ladies for getting married?

That her reputation was nearly ruined when her boyfriend's wife was found dead at the bottom of the stairs?

Everything you could ever want to know about Elizabeth I!

Cleopatra: One Cool Queen
Everybody knows that Cleopatra is the most famous of all of Egypt's queens and that she had a nasty accident with a snake. But did you also know that Cleopatra:

Married both her brothers?

Had her younger sister killed?

Everything you would ever want to know about Cleopatra!

Henry VIII: Heads Will Roll
Everybody knows that king Henry VIII is horribly famous for having a bit of a weight problem, marrying six unlucky wives and getting very carried away with his chopping block.

But did you know that Henry:

Was a handsome hunk and sports star?

Accused his second wife of witchcraft?

Bricked up his bedroom door at night?

Everything you could ever want to know about Henry VIII!

Queen Victoria: Her Great Empire
Everybody knows Victoria married a chap called Albert and wore black clothes – all the time. But did you know that Victoria:

Went on her holidays in disguise?

Was best pals with her rude Scottish servant?

Everything you could ever want to know about Queen Victoria!
