Summary

It's a double-header this week with the brothers Ælfweard and Edwin - not a nearly ruling duo but both seem to have met mysteriously early ends amidst a rivalry with their older half-brother Æthelstan. We learn about divisions between Wessex and Mercia, disputes over legitimacy and the mysterious fate of each brother. We are doing a live show in Ludlow on Friday 21 August 2026 at 19:00 - come and see us compare the contenders for the throne in 1066 at the Ludlow Assembly Rooms: https://ludlowassemblyrooms.co.uk/show/rex-factor/ Sign up for lots of bonus content, including an ad-free version of the main podcast and over 450 additional bonus podcasts:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠https://www.patreon.com/rexfactor⁠⁠ You can now watch the podcast via the link below: https://youtu.be/o0_8IgytX8w "(00:00:00) Introduction" "(00:03:09) Biography" "(00:34:56) Battleyness" "(00:38:06) Scandal" "(00:40:20) Subjectivity" "(00:43:25) Longevity" "(00:45:54) Dynasty" "(00:46:42) Rex Factor" "(00:49:46) C Corner" Learn more about your ad choices.
