[00:02.31]Isabella had Edward imprisoned
[00:04.17]in Berkeley Castle in Gloucestershire
[00:07.14]But she knew that, while he remained alive
[00:09.82]he was the obvious focus for any rebellion
[00:15.50]Within a year, three plots to liberate him had already been uncovered
[00:24.64]These documents here in Berkeley Castle give us a sense of
[00:27.85]the extraordinary difficulty of keeping an ex-king in custody
[00:32.09]We can see here, from the provisions bought for him
[00:34.63]which included 280 eggs, or "ova" in Latin, in just three months
[00:39.61]that at first he was kept in some comfort
[00:42.21]But this account tells us of the reinforcement of the castle
[00:46.03]with bolts and great bars and other ironwork
[00:49.37] after Edward escaped from his guards in the summer of 1327
[00:53.50]It was obvious how dangerous his continued existence was to the new regime
[00:58.54]
