I was taught that the lower slits gave the archers a way to shoot at the enemy

What’s going on with this lady’s pronunciation? “Fronce” “in-trick-a-sees” “arch-typical”?
Comment from : @DanielW-n6q

The winters This makes sense
Comment from : @PeterKavanagh-s1d

Rations after ww 11 lasted the time why And in objections the debates to levers these away from people is a mistake Due to the statistics by your deaths in cancer heart disease inability to carry through a reward of walking these indicate why the rations is the answer all the time
Comment from : @PeterKavanagh-s1d

Is a ability to learn the role after a way armies do not lead they kill Here the government need is say the rations measurements and what over the people is the needs it's a better role for woman's
Comment from : @PeterKavanagh-s1d

The take over? It is a demand so the issue of a slave more often a person placed to lie against in many against Thier decision, a slave The central source deciding to hCe this is a illness It's not so dangerous by the number
Comment from : @PeterKavanagh-s1d

To approach god beliefs bit is to understand why, inrterceedence That is a key that brings away nobility to be truthful The Nobel is targeted and best alive
Comment from : @PeterKavanagh-s1d

It was more than likely hot in summer and cold in winter
Comment from : @droberts1664

Her pronunciation of "architypical" made me wince
Comment from : @everything777

Amazing presenter
Comment from : @KellyVincent-f3u

Is this the same de Vere family whose descendant Edward de Vere is said to have been the actual author of many of not most of Shakespeare’s works? brbr(This is a question, not a disguised challenge to a joust with Stratfordians)
Comment from : @cjb8010

Eleanor is an amazing historian, narrator, storyteller, and presenter She is so passionate about everything she say and you can tell she is enjoying sharing her knowledge as much as we enjoy watching the videos

At the 21:20 mark, disappointedly the private chambers of the DeVrys are not shown due to current on-going renovations

Awesome show
Comment from : @BPMLabEliteExercisePhysiology

I would have preferred this to have been presented by a native English speaker And not to be about the worst castle in Europe
Comment from : @SteveConkie-t6r

Interesting but you could try to pronounce the family name the same way throughout the film!
Comment from : @susiemartin3144

The content is interesting, and seems to be well-founded, but I am disappointed that the presenter makes so many grammatical and pronunciation errors - “Moat” (mowt) pronounced “mot”?! etc I'm afraid it undermines her credibility as a scholar and reflects poorly on the educational system that leaves such gaping holes in intellectual discourse
Comment from : @paulcampbell7518

I want to see the quarters even if they are under construction
Comment from : @barrocaspaula

I can't stands historians who act like every thing that could possibly happen happened normally on a regular basis

Thanks👍🏼

What about the privies! I want to know how medieval people of different social classes pooped!
Comment from : @youtubeviewer4472

I loved this! She is an excellent speaker I was engaged the whole time
Comment from : @carsongreco932

My husband’s family were and are a noble family in BelgiumbrbrI traced the heraldry to its origins in the1305 , with the agreement to fight in a war to earn land and title I enjoy thinking about the drawings of them and how they would have lived back in early Belgium They were initially balduin
Comment from : @KrisFer2

Looks like the projects from the outside
Comment from : @ekdaufin1485

Great storytelling They sound like the Sopranos
Comment from : @Iceageonmars

This kind of tyrannical government led directly to the American Revolution
Comment from : @christiandefender9468

No disrespect, but I half expected to see Philomena Cunk when I launched this video
Comment from : @williamfitch1408

For a moment I thought I had accidentally clicked on Philomena Cunk
Comment from : @colinwilliams2

can you project your voice from the front of your mouth instead of at the back of your throat? it’s very croaky over headphones
Comment from : @llwydanwyl

What are the silver things on the candles ?
Comment from : @pim1234

Had to turn this off as there was a lot if incorrect information on it and the presenters strange way of talking/pronunciation was insufferable Usually really enjoy HH videos but this one was a big no
Comment from : @Sparky34258

That castle looks as ugly as a bunker! I'm sure it kept you quite safe But what an eye-sore it is
Comment from : @gardenjoy5223

Cold, dampp, drafty ?
Comment from : @aminaroseayeam2125

my forefathers lived there
Comment from : @suzyra4921

It took me a bit to figure out that mot was moat Mot and bailey? What is her accent? Lol, the way she said "France - Fraunce"
Comment from : @magi267

Eleanor is a great story teller Love the series Thank you
Comment from : @briemiller2552

Great video and tremendous presentation - I wish I could do that, she's at super hero- ninja level - wow!
Comment from : @Mhapple

I am always completely amazed how advanced people were in putting up huge buildings - for example this castle At a time when life was very simple; basic metalwork, no electricity, no technology that we have todaybrBecause to build a castle like this in 2025 with all the skills we now have, well, that would be a massive task!
Comment from : @nigelh3253

The small windows at ground level are defensive "Archery slots" Inside the windows are chamfered to 45 degrees so that the archer could alter aim left or right as necessary - nothing to do with poor people living on the lowest level I'm afraid there are a few errors like that throughout the program but I'm not being unkind, we brits visit castles throughout our education from a very young age
Comment from : @aderhoney6234

This is an amazing video It took me (Canadian) a moment to understand that what I was hearing as “Mottinbailey” was actually “Moat & Bailey “ 😂 Amazing video
Comment from : @rhondahoughton790Canada

She looks like the waitress from It’s Always Sunny

Comment from : @CatherineKeddy-u1d

Thank you 😀👍😀
Comment from : @suebradford5758

I love her narration and enthusiasm But disappointed that the living quarters of the family were under renovation and thus not shown Hopefully you will do another episode to show the living quarters so we can see how Nobles lived in mediaeval times
Comment from : @princessrevenge

Souls are prayed for, not prayed to Only God, the father, son, and holy spirit are prayed to Even when we pray to saints, it is asking their prayers to aid us Not for them to grant us Miracles, but to get them to add their prayed to ours, as they are in the presence of God

I've heard enough What a bunch of A-holes God bless America that everyone has the opportunity to do better for themselves without being suppressed by some royal A-hole
Comment from : @BlackKettleRanch

You could wash your hair before filming please
Comment from : @clairewilson2620

So, basically, the nobles were thugs that employed gangs of lesser thugs to take what they wanted--through violence--from the common people The king (the biggest thug), gave the noble thugs land--that was taken by violence--in exchange for keeping the king in power
Comment from : @michaeld3779

Those bottom windows appear to be loopholes They were much wider on the inside, allowing a bowman to maneuver and aim from side to side His angles were greatly increased for aiming The enemy on the outside only had a small slit as a target area
Comment from : @michaeld3779

Big respect she explains everything in detail
Comment from : @joshpascual7539

Had to stop when her American voice said ‘bunch’ twice in one sentencebrI’m sure this would have been quite interesting, but those two elements (accent and grammar) made listening to her impossiblebrEdited: Returning to Suzannah Lipscombe She’s a true authority
Comment from : @CEAB

Nowadays, the invaders are put up in heated hotels and provided with three square meals a day
Comment from : @hedgemist691

Tired of "terrible-treatment" documentaries,,Nobility beating & starving all workers Eleanor stated true facts instead

Is it a swayth or a swath?
Comment from : @jpvoodoo5522

I wish these videos were organised into a playlist I’m watching them all out of order, on an adhoc basis
Comment from : @disarchitected

This is really interesting Thank you I think I am a history nerd Time will tell
Comment from : @DavidB-ec7bm

Why does she keep calling a mote a mot?
Comment from : @JoeOrwig-zt6jd

It's interesting to note that the word "Dungeon" actually comes from the French word "donjon," which referred to the highest tower of a medieval castle, not an underground prison cell It's curious how the Brits and Americans have come to misuse the term, associating it with dark, subterranean prison cells, when its original meaning was the central, most important part of a castle
Comment from : @isaojable

Archetypical is not pronounced ARCH uh TIP i cul It is pronounced ARK uh TIP i cul

Comment from : @robertnichols2283

That was an amazing presentation She speaks quickly, but she is very articulate and easy to follow
Comment from : @markmed9091

I've only just discovered Eleanor, and I think she's great! Would love to see a collaboration with her and the great Lucy Worsley 😊
Comment from : @mushy111

I used to live in Great Yeldham, just a couple of km from Hedingham Castle I always found it impressive Great to see it again!
Comment from : @DeannaAllison

Why did the de Veres keep the Portuguese royal family's shield (timestamp: 10:17) hanging on the wall?
Comment from : @pedro2150

why does Eleanor mispronounce words ? she speaks with an American accent but calls France "Frauwnce" , she calls a moat (?) , a "Mott" -- why ?
