thanks, Carol. I've left a comment not on the book page itself but on the stupid nonsense about Henry VIII being reincarnated into David Starkey - as if!! he would like to think so but he is sadly mistaken.

I was listening to him talking about the suggested changes to the succession laws. Not once did he mention that it could throw the legitimacy of the monarchy if a there was a Stuart heir! (James II was forced to abdicated because he was Catholic - Bonnie Prince Charlie was his Grandson.)
