Part 2: • Queen Elizabeth I of E...
Please consider supporting me at: / lindsayholiday
Elizabeth I of England, daughter of Henry VIII was never expected to be queen. But after her brother and sister died she became one of England’s greatest rulers. She swore off men and was a brilliant leader who proved that a woman could rule just as well as a man.
I make mini documentaries about women's history and royal history:

Anne got the last laugh. Her daughter became a fierce queen.
Joanne Denney yes
Exactly
If only Henry could’ve known that he did not need a son, maybe Anne would’ve kept her head?
@@sophieelizabeth8689 i guess he really liked my head
@Lindsey McLaughlin But he was raised in Elizabeth's belief, and I love her.
Elizabeth was the son Henry wanted
Yessir
@@lollipop96537 YAS QUEEN
yep
Yess
She was much more than that.
Such a powerful force for England... I'm curious what Henry would have thought of her, had he known her during her reign.
I hope he’d kind of be embarrassed of himself. She totally showed him women can do just a good job, if not better than men.
I’d hope he would apologise for what he did to her mother. I love how she carried her mother’s legacy with her.
@@lauraalice24 I don't think that he would be so sweet about it. Let's remember that he was very insecure of himself since he portrayed himself as such a good man when he wasn't so he probably would have been exiled somewhere else away from court because of what happened to Anne.
Probably would have tried to marry her
@@jacquelinefinnerty6141 too close in bloodline even for the Tudors and that's just fucked up xd
@@jacquelinefinnerty6141 lol
In fairness to Catherine Parr, sending Elizabeth away would have protected her from Thomas Seymour.
Yes but Catherine blamed Elizabeth. Elizabeth was just a young girl getting abused by a disgusting creepy old man. Thomas should've gotten a punishment. But you know misogny was thriving in that time so not likely
@@dianareynolds2446 In defense, she probably wasn’t blamed, Thomas could’ve turned on both Elizabeth and Catherine.
@@thelanktheist2626 Yeah a fair point. Thomas' word was deffinetely more valuable than Elizabeth and Catherine combined.
Yeah right
@@dianareynolds2446 though you cannot judge the past through a modern lense with our modern values. yes it was wrong, but Thomas was the one in power, so Catherine AND Elizabeth could've been ruined if she went against him!
Sending Elizabeth away was a shitty thing to do but in the 16th Century, she WAS protecting Elizabeth. I wonder what Katherine Parr would've done if she and the baby had lived.
"I may have the body of a weak and feeble woman but i have the heart and stomach of a king" one of the the best quote and burns in history ever. I would love you to do a video about Queen Anne of the UK. I recently watched a programme on BBC2 about Queen Anne and how she is falsely depicted in history and seen as a joke when actually she was a very strong and powerful leader and had a very intelligent and practical mind. it was a programme by one of my fave historians Dr Lucy Worsley. I would love you to explore Anne's reign and how she is seen as a joke and all the scandals that led to her demise.
Queen Anne is mainly remembered for having miscarriages and being the last Queen of the Stuart era. It would be great if that video was made coz even I don’t know about Queen Anne that much.
@@ezekielbertrand809 i didnt know much about here either until i watched the BBC programme about her. She was actually an amazing leader and had a very logical and tactical mind and was amazing and running the military and hiring the right people to get shit done. However all she is remembered for is being fat and ugly, having relations with at least 2 women (even though this was never fully proven as fact) and for being the last Stuart queen but she United britain and she fought off many foreign nations from taking over. Its amazing how twited histpey can get. And especially about women.
“I may have the body of a weak and feeble woman but I have the heart and stomach of a concrete elephant!” -Quote from Blackadder.
Lucy Worsley is a fave of mine as well, but I think I missed that one. Thanks for the tip!
@@annbsirius1703 the show is called Royal History's Biggest Fibs. It's a 3 part series. It should be on iPlayet if you have access to it.
That was the smoothest ad transition
Still skipped it
frrrrrr
Timestamp?
Elizabeth truly is a combo of her parents, her father’s famous temper, but combined with her mother’s wit. She had the brains of Anne and the power of Henry.
The power of Henry? What power? Since when is having power a characteristic trait?
@@surgigi1582 His temper, "brash imperiousness," etc. That's what they meant. She also inherited his athleticism, love of hunting and sport, and book smarts. Anne was more charm and seduction. Elizabeth also was vivacious and lively, with some comparing her to her father when he was young.

Its sad how Anne was behead😭😪 and i feel bad for Elizabeth because she lost her mother at a young age 😭😪
I've always been interested in the relationship between Mary I and Elizabeth I
They've both been casted aside by their father and grew up following different religions but both became fierce queens
But Mary the I murdered the Protestant people by burning them on stake
She was crowned on the day of my birthday-
Its also a coincidence she’s my favourite
British queen
*date
That's nice!
@@queenelizabethtudoriofengl6505 your lucky enough the honourable queen replied to you
Me too
I have BEEN waiting for this.
Me too!!😍❤
TURN IT UP!
Same! Clicked on it as soon I saw it
I feel like she was the queen her mother would’ve been. She was a strong and iron fisted leader, a true icon. I think personally, Anne would’ve been the same if her life wasn’t cut short. Anne was a very witty and intelligent woman, and Elizabeth has those same traits. If Anne was given the chance, I believe she would’ve been an amazing ruler and a kick ass queen. Perhaps, she would’ve even been more powerful than the king himself. 👀
Wow! There was so much drama between henry’s children and the throne after his death
That he caused
It's sad too because they were actually quite close in their formative years.
I want to see a video abt Mary queen of Scott’s too!
James VI and I's mom
yessss
Dam, they cut so many heads off back then.
MARY QUEEN OF SCOTS PLEASE.. I'M GETTING DESPERATE!!! :)
James VI's mom
@@alizecaba7929 Hi, I mean I watched reign and didn't really like it. I stick to the facts and not all the romance. If you like that then go ahead. I recommend watching Mary Queen of Scots 2018 version it's sooo good!
yesss omgg!!!
I totally support this.
@Mike signs I dont think so. I'm pretty sure reign is historical FICTION which means half of it's made up. Of course the director in the series or movie will have their own bias but reign isnt historically accurate whatsoever. Some parts of Mary Queen of Scots 2018 are based on opinion and I'll admit reign does cover the main parts like Francis dying and her marrying Lord Darnley but that's about it. I'm not telling you to stop watching this I'm just saying be careful what you believe because the show reign is based for entertainment. Mary Queen of Scots 2018 is to but it's more for history. I dont want to start an argument.
Actually, one other major protestant ruler tried his luck with Queen Elizabeth! King Frederik II of Denmark tried to woo her, but as with everyone else, she also refused him. He was instead made a member of The Order of the Garter :)
Lol.
Friendzone
7:57 such a beautiful image of Queen Mary and Queen Elizabeth together
STFU!!
I´m dying hahaha
HAHaha. I just got to that point in the video, I was confused at your comment earlier lol
If Elizabeth married, it was probably expected for her to marry someone of very high rank, such as a king. Would any man she picked be given some powers over the government, though? Mary was allowed to rule without Philip taking over, so Elizabeth probably could have married somebody for love if she wanted if he'd been found acceptable by the people.
Well it’s possible the people would demand he rule. She likely just wanted to avoid that problem
Yes, she was allowed to rule without Philip, but she didn't. Even tho she had legal right, the social expectations at the time, and her own belives, made her declare Philip a co-ruler and king of England, and if she had lived, I don't doubt she would have stepped down in favor of her husband.
Elizabeth I was Queen of England and Ireland from 17 November 1558 until her death on 24 March 1603. Sometimes called the Virgin Queen, Gloriana or Good Queen Bess, Elizabeth was the last of the five monarchs of the House of Tudor.
"I know, I may have the body of a weak and feeble woman,👩 but I have the heart,❤ and stomach of a king,🤴 and of a king,👑 of England,🏴 too."
Queen,👸 Elizabeth Tudor the first.
0:33 that baby picture/painting though. It looks like a terrible Photoshop where they took the head, forgot the neck and placed it on a grownups body.
I've heard this story a dozen times, but it never gets old.
Same. It’s just so interesting

Cøøkie Plåys yep
@@seanhannonnn that goes on forever
@Maximus Yagdulas YES I WILL!
TH-cam ads:
Elizabeth's history is amazing! I'm excited to see part 2 (and perhaps a video about Mary, Queen of Scots)! 😍
Please Queen Claude of France Elizabeth of York and Elizabeth Woodville
The names of rulers had been repeated so many times in history that I, as an India get confused.....well just wanted to if I had seen Queen Elizabeth II ,who was the Queen Elizabeth l, and so I came across these videos.
@@lifeandzindagi there's roman numerals at the end of their regnal name like henry vii, or (*name* of/the *place/title*) like catherine of aragon and william the conqueror, it's pretty simple.
Wow!
I didn’t know Thomas Seymour was a bad guy
These videos are my favourite part of Tuesdays ❤
Edit: that"sshhh stfu!" ,cracked me up!😂
I choked lmao...
Right! 😂😂😂
I near damn pass out
This was good as always. She was a complicated figure.
I would love to make a time travelling machine and go back in time to see her personally.. i adore her 😍😍😍
I know right...lol
Id rather not go back in time. Smelly streets, crappy teeth, unhealthy habits. No thanks.
@@brettlarch8050 maybe just for a few hours to talk to her lol
I understand your curiosity and we both share that, but if you go back there you’ll be exposed to any disease, and if you’re like 3 yards away from people, you’ll still smell their stench.
@@pokerplayer4197 did people rly smell that bad back then?
10:06 - when Elizabeth stans talk too much
That part made me giggle 😄
Lol
Omg I missed that completely 😂
Ladies and gentlemen its the moment we've been waiting for 😆😊
Same here😊
She swear off marrying A man. She never said anything about intimate.
The Darksider That’d be a pretty big risk to take.
@@mangot589 Elizabeth I was used to take big risks.
@Thomas Robinson I agree with you on the part that you said she was religious. But I disagree on the "not having relations" part. We seem to forget: she was A human-And after all, human have " needs. " And for obvious reasons, we didn't know everything about her life.
Thomas Robinson I don’t think she was terribly religious. But I do think she was aware of pregnancy, and the ramifications of even if she was just “fooling around” without risk of that, of even a whiff getting out. She was always, always, very careful of her reputation. I don’t believe she would have risked it. No way. Now, that being said, when she was younger, way before being queen, or even that she may have a real possibility of it, I personally think her and Robert Dudley MAY have done something. Maybe just once, she slipped up, and the terror of worrying about the ramifications for the next month or two.....they WERE in love🤷♀️. But that’s just pure conjecture on my part.
I'm convinced she had sex at least once so the term "Virgin Queen" is completely wrong.
this feels like a season finale :D
The virgin queen, forever a maiden and a spinster for life! She makes me proud of my celibacy 😊
She’s one of my favorite queen role model
Excellent video! Tudor's family was so complicated. But, she was really an amazing Queen!
Random kid: Mom I’m g*y
Elizabeth I: I have no son
Gasps
Random kid: This isn’t my house
Next you should do one on cleopatra or something else Egypt related
I'm sure it was Catherine Howard's and Lady Jane Grey's beheadings off marriage, who were also 'pawns' that terrified her. Im happy for these videos but theres SO much info about The Tudors, I wish we could hear more about the Queen Nzinga, Wu Zetian, Jadrega of Polands of the World, the more obscure Queend.....but I bet what videos are made based on what historical information is out there. Still, LOVE these vids they are my ASMRs. What about Margaret of Anjou, Queen Militant and wife of "The Sleeping King" or Catherine of Valois, Elizabeth's great...great (?) grandmother ?
I’m doing a project on her at the moment! thank you for this!!!
I recamend seeing the 4 part documentery its really good and intresting
I really enjoyed this in depth video about the Queen. I'm wondering though, how accurate was the movie Elizabeth starring Cate Blanchett in portraying her?
Compared to other portrayal of Elizabeth by other actors such as Margot Robbie and Judi Dench, Cate Blancett's potrayal of Elizabeth is one of the most accurate though we would never know how she really looked like when she got old as most potraits of her when she's older are mostly enhanced to make look younger and youthful to maintain her image as a Virgin Queen.
Cate Blanchett's portrayal was amazing, the movies aren't very accurate
@@missspice2087 Cate Blanchett is A beautiful woman.
her being lizzie? yea pretty good, the movie portraying her? not really
Thank you so much for your amazing video’s Lindsay! I always watch them before I go to bed. Your voice is so calming and you put so much effort in your video’s. Could you do the Dutch royals as well?
I would love if you talk about the Dutch Queens!
Perfect timing, just finished watching The White Queen, The White Princess, The Spanish Princess, and The Tudors 🙌🏼💕
Are these tv shows or yt videos?
wow- i’ve never been so early to your videos but they are so informative and i love them!!
So excited for the second part!
I usually take little notice of the products TH-camrs advertise, however I have just begun a free trial with The Great Courses Plus thanks to you and couldn't be more pleased. The content is relevant to your demographic, and the courses are so engaging and interesting. Thanks, Lindsay! :)
Jade Holt I have just ‘The Great Courses’ (pay for individual courses, not per month), and I really like it. There’s a lot of interesting courses. Tip for anyone who wants it: If audio only is on offer it’s probably the better deal, because the video will just be a lecturer talking.
Great video as always! Looking forward to part 2! I would love for you to explore some First Lady of the US for future videos. I think it’s be a great topic!
I’ve been so excited for this video! Looking forward to part 2! Love all of your videos!!!! One of my fave channels ✨💞
Yess I was waiting for this
Nice, I love Queen Elizabeth the first, she’s one of my favorite queen’s!!!💖👸🏼
can you make a video of the story of Mary 1 of England, because shes so underrated.
10:08 "Shhh... STFU" hahahhaah
The waiting is over. I've been waiting for this. Thank you Lindsay Holiday. God bless you and God bless to us all who followed her channel.
Peace and love ❤️😘🙏😇👍
This was so good, I can’t wait for the next one!
Yes! I've been waiting for this video!
Please do Mary 1. I feel like her childhood was very sad and she is often demonized in history
Was waiting for my Tuesday update! X
Thank you for these wonderful videos!!!
You could make an hour video & I would watch the whole thing 💕 I just love your channel so much
Awwwwww I CANT WAIT FOR EPISODE 2!!!!!!
just wanted to say how much i love ur videos i cant stop watching them
I already know all of this, I just love watching your videos and narrations
hello Lindsey fantastic video and so much information i love all your videos i wonder if youve ever had a interest in the hidden pictures in the portrates as i have like the painting of Elizabeth which shows her victories and the dark side and the win could you show some others where there is hidden stories x
Love these videos!!!
I LOVE these videos I am learning so much ! Thank You
Ive been waiting for this eeee!
Queen Elizabeth I and the Elizabethan era is one of my main interests. Subscribed immediately!
Rewatching this after listening to it in the car. I literally thought you said great corsets plus.
And I was super confused 😂
Please do the Duchess of Devonshire! Georgiana Cavendish her story is similar to princess Diana of her time! (Around the Georgian era) xx
Yay you made a video of her!!!😆😆
Please do Mary 1st after Elizabeth, she actually lived a sad life and has always been overshadowed by her little sister
Thanks for sharing
One of my favorite part of history
Love from Nepal 🇳🇵🙏
I is a curious dork! Can you please recommend any books about the history of Nepal? Thank you for your help.
This is much more recent (WWII era), but I would love to see a video on Queen Astrid of Belgium and her successor Lilian de Rethy.
me as soon as I see u uploaded a new video: 🏃🏃
love them!!!
Smart way to get us to watch the ads and not skip them👏🏾
I really love and admire Queen Elizabeth 1’s attitude and way of thinking. 👑
As always, Thank You Lindsay!!! I watch your videos religiously!! My only frustration is that I can only watch int new one at a time 😂😂. It would be so so so awesome if your channel got popular enough for multiple videos a week!!
Either way keep up the incredible job!! Thank you so much!!
Good queen Bess herself is here!
Please please pleeeeease put the audio up as a podcast!
Also another recommendation please do a video on the sultanate of women(Turkish queens)like hurrem,kosem,Safiye sultan or at least take it into consideration x
I feel so honored to share the same birthday as her!!!
Fantastic and lovely presentation Friend obrigado
Thanks for excellent video friend
I love this channel.
The queen is back 😍
although i have nothing really to say i just want to express how much i love this channel
Rather than running away or just letting herself be used she figured out how to put a figurative silk stocking clad foot to the neck of the nobility , made the common folk adore her and ruled her kingdom as well as any previous king had if not better.
Omg she was crowned on my brother’s birthday but just 455 years before
I love hearing about Elizabeth I!
Great content
Noooo! I have to WAIT for a part 2? I don't even know what patience IS!
I need the next video now 😓
This was a fair video to Mary I, thank you.
I will be interested to see how you tackle Elizabeth's increased intolerance of Catholics, they didn't enjoy 'light' punishments for long, hence why there's quite a few English saints who died during Elizabeth's reign such at Margaret Clitharoe.
How about you tell stories about the St Barthomleu's Day Massacre in France.
@@snayperkill6218 beecause 1) I don't make youtube comments and 2) we're talking British History here, not French. I don't deal in whataboutery, I'm merely asking if the increased religious tensions will be a factor in the next video
@@lois7956 how about the persecution of prots by the Catholic Bloody Mary
@@lois7956 she was the first to do it. So her sister Queen Elizabeth I gave back the favor to the Catholics
@@snayperkill6218 That was when the pope issued a papal bull of excommunication encouraging all catholics to rise up against Elizabeth to disposed or even assasinate her. This was also the time when Mary Staurt fled from Scotland to England which onely gave a focal point for all Catholics to rise up agiant Elizabeth, and Catholic plots were only being hatched and uncovered left right and centre. The situation of the time forced Elizabeth to crack down harder on Catholicism than she really wanted to.
Do The mother of king James VI Of Scotland
Mary Stuart?
@@Julia-xm4ke yes
Lindsay G the mother of James VI Is Mary Queen of Scots You are Wrong
HenryNumber3 Gaming that is Mary Stuart 😹
@@Julia-xm4ke i know
I hope there will be a video about queen Mary 1 !
The story of Catherine and Seymour with Elizabeth sounds a lot like that one part of game of thrones
Late suggestion I’d love to see a video of Ulrika Eleanora Queen of Sweden
