Summary

Sure, we are very accustomed to Queens named Elizabeth in England these days, but who was the original Elizabeth? Well, that would be Elizabeth Woodville, of course. Aka, Liza with a W! Elizabeth Woodville's marriage to the young and handsome king Edward IV was scandalous. Was it witchcraft? No. She was just super hot and lovely, so he wanted to marry her despite her being a widow and a commoner. (Even though her mother had literally been a duchess, but whatever) . In this episode we go over: The Wars of the Roses The Princes in the Tower Lots of family drama Witchcraft accusations The introduction of the Tudor dynasty All while drinking malmsey wine (which Liza may or may not have had her brother-in-law drowned in).
