Poor Anne. I can't imagine what it must have been like for her. Father in exile, hating her. Baby coffins piling up and her helpless to save her babies or stop conceiving more. Losing everyone who supported her. Tragedy after tragedy.

Poor dear, I couldn't imagine the pain she and her husband went through losing all those children.

I love listening to these podcasts on my headphones while going for long country walks. Thank you The People Profiles.

I knew a little about Queen Anne but not nearly enough. Thank you for rectifying that. Outstanding research, amazing narration and fantastic production. Thanks guys. You never disappoint.

She may have had lupus. Without today’s diagnosis and treatment, she must have had a very difficult, painful life.

I will say this, all the deaths miscarriages she had , some would have gone insane .she was a very different kind of monarch

So much was achieved during Queen Anne’s reign yet we hear more of her sad natal journey than all she achieved. I admire this queen more than Victoria.

I always felt very sorry for poor old Anne, she got the short straw. But she was cleverer than many made her out to be

I have a huge amount of respect for Queen Anne, to suffer so much personal tragedy then over see so many changes in the period of her reign was remarkable. Thank you for this.

Fascinating, thank you! A period of history I know little about. Crazy to think that Anne only lived to 49!

Probably one of the most underrated Monarchs in English/British history. She let Godophin run the Government and Churchill run thr military. She understood her personal limitations, but unlike William III, this was her strength. The United Kingdom and Scotland owe her a good deal of gratitude.

Hi. That was so interesting but very tragic to hear about the troubles Queen Anne suffered. Although none of her issues were her own fault, I'm not really at all surprised that she mourned the untimely loss of all of her large family of 17 children and her husband. It's very clear that she had a hard, troubled, and unhealthy life. It's so terribly sad that she lost all of her children, mostly to the fatal disease - smallpox. It's a mystery as to how it just left devastated mothers, fathers, husbands, and wives all over the entire country. If it hadn't been for the disease, I'd think it's a possibility that some of her children possibly would have survived longer. She was just a sad and unlucky royal breeding machine. Even though she was never very well, strong, and healthy, I don't think her many tiring and exhausting pregnancies also took a toll on her health as well. Didn't it? I also get the feeling that the fatal stroke she suffered on the 30th July 1714, the 14th anniversary of her longest lived child, Price William's death, was probably brought on by the stress of his death 6 days after his 11th birthday just 14 years earlier. But 310 long years after her death, I bet some historians still wonder what all of the illnesses are that she had the misfortune of suffering all of her 49-year life. At least she can now talk to them in peace in Westminster. I don't think she had a very good and happy 20th birthday, as her uncle, King Charles II (29.5.1630 - 6.2.1685), died. Surely, she was devastated by his passing late that morning, aged 54. I suppose the only thing she can count herself lucky about was the fact that she survived to adulthood along with her sister Mary, who was 22 months older. It's obvious that Anne loved and adored her son Prince William (24.7.1689 - 30.7.1700) and was very sad and heartbroken at his death. As he lived longer than his many other siblings, I expect she did all sorts of things with him to keep occupied and happy. She wasn't a bad and nasty mother at all, Anne just didn't have much luck with raising her 17 children all the way to adulthood. One death after another must have hit her very hard indeed. There's no doubt that her husband, Prince George, also felt the same as her - sad and disappointed. I so would have thought it was very hard for them both to get over their losses together as a devoted and loving couple. The main for them was that they both had each other's comfort and company. I hope the next story, which will be of King George I, isn't too far and long away. It'll be the start of the Hanoverian period. It will be interesting to see what is and has to be said about him & his unpopularity as a husband and father. I believe he was also a distant cousin of Queen Anne as well. As Anne's life was terribly sad, hard, and unpleasant for her, I am also not surprised that she objected to her once childhood friend Sarah Churchill doing something which was totally unnecessary that just upset Anne a lot more, and that was by removing all of the pictures of her late husband, Prince George of Denmark. That so wouldn't have helped Anne get over his passing at all, but Mrs Churchill didn't show any friend like behaviour by having or showing any respect and comfort towards her very upset and unwell friend Anne. She surely must have mourned for him for quite a long while. Hope to hear from you shortly. Robert 2.6.24

That disgusting film-The Favourite-could have, like this documentary, told the fascinating story and indeed tragedy of Queen Anne. Instead it tried to focus its attention on the titillations of her relationship with Sarah Churchill and paint her as a rabid lesbian. I’m gay and find this appalling. Her life was deeply tragic and they could have explored the devastating consequences these events had on her but that would not have suited Hollywoods depraved narratives-and Olivia Coleman was awful as Anne just as she is in most roles. This was a much more interesting, thoughtful and detailed delve into the life of a very tragic but very important Queen.

People Profiles, Anne, Queen of Great Britain, is my favourite royal and monarch of all time. I have long been asking for you guys to create her a documentary, that one; will be a documentary about her and two; a documentary that could do her justice like only People Profiles can. I was so happy when you announced and published the Queen Mary II of England documentary, (mainly because there is so little information about her and I knew this will give a better insight into this often forgotten monarch) and wondered how my favourite monarch and royal will overtake that. I didn't even really know how to react on the community post, which I eventually thought the Queen Mary II of England, will remain the more favourable one. After watching this documentary I can say with certainty, it ousted the Queen Mary II of England one. I said it before, and I'm going to say it again; People Profiles, you have outdone yourselves!!! Thank you for providing us with this fantastic throughly researched documentary of Anne, Queen of Great Britain. I enjoyed it it immensely and never have I felt like crying in a documentary, but you even got the sadness of the emotion of loosing so much children onto me. To end off with, all I can say is, People Profiles thank you, thank you, thank you. Thank you so much, you created much joy for a supporter ❤️💙❤️💙❤️💙.

Best YouTube channel, you have a calming voice ❤❤❤

The first Ruler of Great Britain! Thanks For this Guys! You're the Best ❤❤❤

THANK YOU!!!!!!

To answer the question at the end, I think Queen Anne was one of the the greatest monarchs England, Scotland and Ireland, later, Great Britain and Ireland ever had, and are more than often conviently forgotten 😢.

Wow!! 17 chidren?! She was not only Queen regnannt, but also Queen pregnant!
