Now she's thrown shade on Wellington. Oh, the horror!
Historian Lucy Worsley says the Battle of Waterloo was a victory for Europe, it’s time this broadside at Wellington’s triumph met its Waterloo
"It was Napoleon who fought for ‘Europe’, not Wellington."
I don't watch a Worsley production for much serious insight, more a basic primer and a little light relief. However, I sometimes find her constant dressing up a bit distracting. I get the impression she is a frustrated actor, so perhaps Cambridge and the footlights should have been more her thing?
All history, and particularly popular history, uses the lens of modern society. Perhaps therefore her and Dominics comments should be seen in the light of the Brexit schism.
