    Catalina served Katherine of Aragon for years, proudly, passionately, and loyally following her from Spain all the way to the side of King Henry VIII. But Henry’s interest has turned. He is intent on divorce, and his henchmen are digging up the secrets of Katherine’s first marriage to Arthur Tudor. They think Catalina is the weakest link and their method is intimidation. But have they underestimated Catalina’s strength and loyalty?

  • S2E1 – Crack of Thunder 21:11

Season 1

Outliers

Stories from the edges of history.

Historic Royal Palaces, in association with Rusty Quill, presents Outliers – a historic fiction podcast exploring how big events filter down and are viewed and shaped by the people in the shadows. Themes of otherness, change, gender and the meaning of power are explored through the eyes of characters who have not traditionally held the historic limelight. Enjoy a anthology of stories from award-winning contemporary writers as they reveal the people hiding in the shadows of real events at some of the greatest palaces ever built. Episode writers include Jonathan Sims, Gabriel Urbina, Beth Crane, David K. Barnes, Abir Mukherjee, Steven Camden and more.
