Kate Williams (Part One)

About this episode

Joining Emily and Raymond this week is the brilliant historian, author and presenter Professor Kate Williams - who took us for a very royal walk in London’s St James’s Park.


Kate has two cats at home - but she was VERY taken by Raymond. She actually asked if she could take him home - as well as comparing him to Anne Boleyn (which we’re taking as a compliment!) 


Our chat with Kate covers everything from red hair, to her childhood time machine and how she went from the shy girl at school to one of the country's most loved historians.


You can follow Kate on Instagram @Katewilliamsme


You can also listen to Queens, Kings and Dastardly Things - a brand new history podcast hosted by Kate and Robert Hartman - wherever you get your podcasts! 


Kate’s most recent book The Royal Palace: Secrets and Scandals is available now!
