Poster for the podcast UPRISING: THE CIVIL WARS. A picture of Charles I is in the centre with battle scenes in the background. Along with the podcast title are the words ‘Listen wherever you get your podcasts’.
It’s my birthday! A really wonderful gift would be if you could listen, like and share my new podcast series, Uprising: The Civil Wars (and, if you have enjoyed it, give it 5 ⭐️)
In the words of Henrietta Maria, Merci.

Yes, Ariana and Cynthia are clearly amazing in #WickedForGood, but can we also talk about Ethan Slater for a moment? I won’t give any spoilers in case there are film-only people here, but his performance was so nuanced. Loved it.

19th century wooden “walking” doll with a wheel of eight legs ~ when costumed, the doll’s long dress would cover most of the leg mechanism, allowing the doll to “walk” when moving, while appearing to have only two legs at any one time www.theriaults.com/events/listi...

I’m on the final episode and he’s such a class act.

I think he must be a new(ish) screen actor, but the guy playing Amos Crane in #DownCemeteryRoad is phenomenal! I haven’t seen a such a chilling performance for a long, long while.

'[catholicism] hath a restless spirit, and will strive by these gradations: if it once get but a connivancy, it will press for a toleration: if that should be obtained, they must have an equality: from thence they will aspire to superiority, and will never rest till they get a subversion of the true religion'.
Fears expressed here against Catholicism in 1621 sound remarkably similar to unfounded fears about marginalised groups in the contemporary world.
