Description

Elizabeth I’s relationship with Mary, Queen of Scots is perhaps the most pivotal of her entire life, and yet they never met.  

In this second episode in our series, Joint Chief Curator Tracy Borman is joined by Dr Andrea Clarke, to discuss how as confidantes and rival queens, Elizabeth and Mary’s relationship would shape the image that Elizabeth would adopt for herself, that of Gloriana. 

Read about Elizabeth’s brush with death at Hampton Court, the crisis that magnified the succession question.  

This is the second Episode in our Elizabeth series where we explore the women who shaped a queen.
