About this listen

Henry VI didn't fit the medieval image of masculinity, or that much of a king, either.


Who gave sex education to someone of this stature? How did his controversial marriage to the French Margaret of Anjou effect his reputation? And what problems were they facing in the bedroom?


Joining Kate today is author and historian Lauren Johnson to help us get to know this misunderstood medieval monarch.


This episode was edited by Tom Delargy and produced by Stuart Beckwith. The senior producer was Charlotte Long.
