Hello my name is Ede, I'm 8 and my history wish is that women actually got the vote sooner.
At least they did in the end though!
I am dressed up as the Black Prince, Edward III's eldest son. Um, distinguished himself
for his bravery in...um...the battle of...battle...
I'm a roman and I like fighting!
Battle baddies and dragons.
My favourite king or queen is Anne Boleyn because she's got an extra finger and I could
scare all my friends with it.
My favourite king is Henry VIII because he had six wives. And this is why he had six
wives. Cos he wanted a baby boy. Divorced, Beheaded, Died, Divorced, Beheaded, Survived!
Elizabeth I because she was very independent and she inspired lots of women to become who
they truly are, and she didn't have a king to kick her off the throne, even if they did
wanted to marry her because of love she made a statement and said "They'll be one mistress
and no master" and I think that's a very very smart statement to say if you are Queen and
you need to, you know, stop being...stop men from being stupid.
Actually I don't really have one. I like ordinary people, at least people that are like the
suffragettes, not quite royal but important to history.
I've got the chain mail here...I'll just take off my helmet. Also from Pendennis Castle.
I've got my...erm...chain mail hood, it can go down and go up. In real life knights would
have a chain mail hood. It can come off just folds over here. I have got a belt here, where
I keep my swords. And then I've got my armoured legs, they are not really armoured they are
just cloth but still. Then I've got...um...built in shoes...yeah. One of the...um...elastic
bits has snapped the other ones still there.
Want a bit?
Bribery?
I'm not going to say no, thank you very much that's really sweet of you. Thank you.
I like history because if we didn't have history we wouldn't know where we would be living
today. We wouldn't know where we would be in time. We could be like...if we didn't have
like lets say the Romans we could be living in like the Celts did.
I would like to travel back to the middle ages and see in exchange for a chicken I'd
like to see what you could get.
Without history nothing really would exist. Because nothing would happen. Because there
would be no future, no present, no past, no nothing.
