In 2016 Lucy published her first novel for children Eliza Rose which she followed up with My Name is Victoria in 2017. Lucy’s writing has been very well received and her history books include Courtiers: A Secret History of the Georgian Court (2010), If Walls Could Talk: An Intimate History of Your Home (2010), A Very British Murder (2013) and Jane Austen at Home (2017). 2016 also saw Lucy front Lucy Worsley: Mozart's London Odyssey (BBC4) and co-host The Real Versailles (BBC2). Earlier in the year she also fronted Empire of the Tsars: Romanov Russia, a three part series for BBC4, telling the extraordinary story of the dynasty who ruled Russia for more than three centuries. Lucy travelled back in time to the Tudor Court to witness some of the most dramatic moments in the lives of Henry VIII’s six wives. In 2016 Lucy presented, Six Wives with Lucy Worsley (BBC1), an ambitious and ground-breaking approach to drama and history. In 2017 Lucy presented Jane Austen: Behind Closed Doors (BBC2), in which Lucy explored the different houses in which Jane Austen lived and stayed, to discover just how much they shaped Jane’s life and novels. Since 2009 Lucy has presented shows for Channel 4, History and has become a mainstay across the BBC covering everything from Alfred The Great, King Henry VIII and Britain’s fascination with murder. Somewhere in between she also finds the time to present TV series on a range of historical subjects. Dr Lucy Worsley is, by day Chief Curator at Historic Royal Palaces and by night a writer of history books.
