Summary

It's the last of the play-off groups and one of the tastiest yet! We have our very first monarch, Kenneth MacAlpin (843-58) against our very last, James VI (1567-1625), as well as James VI facing off against his own mother, Mary Queen of Scots (1542-67). Kenneth was the first, Mary and James are perhaps the most famous, but it is Alexander II (1214-49) who got the highest score of these four in the original podcasts. We compare them factor by factor but you will play a crucial role in deciding who goes through.

0:51.5	monarchs and what we're doing is we have one
0:53.2	podcast episode on each and at the end of that I vote, Ali votes and then you the
0:59.0	public also vote for your favorite for each group who you want to go through to the final. You won't know how
1:04.8	Ali and I vote until we do the results episode at the end. Often I don't know
1:08.8	either. Indeed. Because Ali was a little bit unwell and then I went on holiday, we didn't recall this when we wanted to.
1:15.0	Oh yeah. So while the deadline for Group A and Group B for voting is the 30th of April,
1:20.0	we thought we'd extend it a little bit for group C. So for this group you've got
1:25.8	until the 4th of May. May the 4th. Star Wars Day. Hey I knew that was something. The links to the surveys from
