Secret Knowledge: Bolsover Castle (BBC 4 Wednesday 7 June 2023)
Secret Knowledge: Bolsover Castle airs Wednesday 7 June 2023 on BBC 4.
The history of Bolsover Castle in Derbyshire is recounted by Lucy Worsley. It was constructed in the early 17th century and quickly became playboy Cavalier and ambitious courtier William Cavendish’s pleasure palace.
Lucy brings to life the spectacular masque held by Cavendish to win the favour of King Charles I as she leads us on a tour of the castle and its remarkable collection of artworks.
Within the walls of this odd architectural masterpiece is a colourful story that captures the tense atmosphere of early 17th-century England, which would eventually result in civil war.
Secret Knowledge: Bolsover Castle airs Wednesday 7 June 2023 at 8.00pm on BBC 4
