If you visited Alnwick Castle this season (or last), you may have met Tastes Through Time, a living history duo who demonstrate and explore the changes in British domestic and social history - from Tudor crafts and skills to female roles in the Second World War. As their name suggests, they also look at how food and recipes have developed over the centuries.

This August, we spoke to Tastes Through Time - aka Lindsey and Georgina - while they were here with us at Alnwick Castle. They told us about their approach to history, as well as everything from the sumptuary laws on clothing restrictions to the best Victorian meals they would like to try in the Great Kitchen at Alnwick Castle - where they performed earlier this year.

This podcast was recorded "live" outside, in the grounds of Alnwick Castle, on a busy summer day, so you may hear more background noises and sounds than usual.

For more episodes of the podcast where you can hear from historical performers, head into our back catalogue for episode 60, featuring the Silly History Boys, or episode 40, with medieval musicians Trouvere. And we'll see you next month for another look back into history!
