As a Texan, I wouldn’t do too well on the quiz perhaps except knowing the Normandy related date that is not 1066, June 6, 1944 Overlord d day
most excellent history lecture/explanation; if only school and college teachers could aspire to make history so interesting
Bayeux is a charming town with excellent restaurants. The Tapestry is a unique gem. Just a ferry ride away!
In 1966 Guinness did a poster ad campaign featuring the Bayeux tapestry showing Harold on horseback holding up a glass of Guinness instead of a sword. The strapline, Battle of Hastings 1066. Bottle of Guinness 1966. That made a change from everything being World Cup that year.
Loved this talk, really enjoyed it.

Excellent talk with so much detail! Thank you so much. I was born and brought up in Hastings so, of course, we all knew about 1066 and the town nearby called Battle is where the famous battle took place - or so they say! I moved to France to teach English in 1981 and never went back.

@@BerwickCoatesHistorian if I think of anything will let you know xxxx
The bayeux tapestry’s length (70m) is longer than the height of the Titanic (53m).
Thank you for making this! I've learnt more watching that then I did in history GCSE or A-level! :)
Thank you so much for your kind remarks. If you enjoyed it, there are plenty more. Please share. All the best, Berwick.
Watched this after watching a partly animated, Monty Pythonesque summary of a tapestry reproduction on the TH-cam channel Lindybeige. The host of that channel, Lloyd, got me curious to know more. Your talk about it here was excellent.
Oh, same. The chair has a nice color. :)

@@BerwickCoatesHistorian Rewatching yet again, sir. Next, I am going to start a marathon of lectures, and films with all their foibles, about the English Civil War... Cromwell and the first 2 monarchs named Charles interest me now that a third Charles is on the throne recently.
I was amused by the attitude of "probably not much", though, I do know a little about some things. Admittedly, probably not as much as a good British student! I do know a lot about the 11th century, however--just not in that part of the world!! Thanks, now I know a bit more.

Hello, i am still at the beginning of this talk but i just want to say that as an Australian with British (English and Welsh) heritage, i love the gentle interrogation at the outset. And the reason is, I've recently realised how tremendously vague i am about this subject in comparison with the latent focus on Tudor rule in popular history. i am looking forward to the rest of this presentation. Thank you for your time and efforts! 🙏

Wasn’t William’s mother Herleva?
Fascinating podcast, but something inside of me dies every time I hear "enormity" used for "bignes".
It means "great evil".
