| 1:06 | · | count of Vala her life was certainly one |

| 1:12 | · | likely born in Salon her father's |
| 1:15 | · | property near the river skelt a 12th |
| 1:18 | · | century Palace Philippa spoke Dutch and |
| 1:21 | · | French was well versed in the medieval |
| 1:23 | · | romances her mother loved and her |
| 1:26 | · | behavior at court was impeccable by 132 |
| 1:30 | · | 5 Philippa was living in valencian at |
| 1:33 | · | her parents' court and events in England |
| 1:36 | · | were heating up the Queen of England |
| 1:38 | · | Isabella of France had irrevocably |
| 1:41 | · | separated from her husband the King |
| 1:44 | · | Edward II of England Not only was he |
| 1:47 | · | running the country into the ground but |
| 1:50 | · | Isabella had been replaced for the |
| 1:52 | · | second time by one of Edward II's male |
| 1:56 | · | favorites this time with Hugh dispenser |
| 2:00 | · | with whom he seemed |
| 2:02 | · | infatuated Isabella had managed to leave |
| 2:05 | · | England for France on a diplomatic visit |
| 2:08 | · | taking her son Prince Edward the later |
| 2:11 | · | Edward III of England with her the heir |
| 2:14 | · | to the throne of England Isabella's main |
| 2:17 | · | problem as well as that of her lover |
| 2:19 | · | Roger Mortimer was that they wanted to |
| 2:22 | · | take an army to England to Dethrone |
| 2:24 | · | Edward II but they didn't have the funds |
| 2:28 | · | or people will William Philip's father |
| 2:32 | · | agreed that he would help provide ships |
| 2:34 | · | troops and a large cash dowy if Queen |
| 2:38 | · | Isabella agreed to her son marrying one |
| 2:41 | · | of his daughters in return Queen |
| 2:44 | · | Isabella would also ensure Maritime |
| 2:46 | · | peace between England and heot as well |
| 2:49 | · | as lucrative trading rights an agreement |
| 2:52 | · | was made and the bride merely had to be |
| 2:55 | · | chosen Philip's sister Isabella was |
| 2:58 | · | still a toddler so she was out in any |
| 3:00 | · | case but it did leave Philippa herself |
| 3:03 | · | and her sister Agnes who was around 11 |
| 3:06 | · | years old who would live to only the |
| 3:08 | · | following year at any rate philipper and |
| 3:11 | · | Edward hit it off and when it was time |
| 3:14 | · | for him to depart for England he agreed |
| 3:17 | · | he would marry her interestingly Prince |
| 3:20 | · | Edward's father Edward II had just a few |
| 3:23 | · | years earlier sent Bishop stapledon to |
| 3:26 | · | take a look at William the first |
| 3:27 | · | daughters to see if any of them would be |
| 3:30 | · | suitable as a bride for his son when he |
| 3:32 | · | was there the bishop wrote a description |
| 3:35 | · | of one of the count of hao's daughters |
| 3:38 | · | that has in recent years sparked a |
| 3:40 | · | discussion over what philipper really |
| 3:42 | · | looked like just to start we don't know |
| 3:46 | · | if this description is of Philippa or |
| 3:48 | · | her Elder Sister Margaret but as they |
| 3:51 | · | had the same parents probably didn't |
| 3:53 | · | look to dislike one another Bishop |
| 3:56 | · | stapled and said the lady whom we saw |
| 3:59 | · | has not uncomely hair betwix blue black |
| 4:02 | · | and brown her face Narrows between the |
| 4:05 | · | eyes and its lower part is more narrow |
| 4:08 | · | than her forehead her eyes are blackish |
| 4:11 | · | Brown and deep her nose is fairly smooth |
| 4:15 | · | and even save that it is somewhat broad |
| 4:18 | · | at the tip and flattened and yet it is |
| 4:20 | · | no snub nose her lips are full |
| 4:23 | · | especially the lower lip her lower teeth |
| 4:25 | · | project a little beyond the upper yet |
| 4:28 | · | this is but little scene all her body is |
| 4:30 | · | well set and uned and not is a miss so |
| 4:34 | · | far as a man may see moreover she is |
| 4:37 | · | brown of skin all over much like her |
| 4:39 | · | father and she will be the age of 9 |
| 4:42 | · | years on St John's day next to come as |
| 4:45 | · | her mother said the comment that she was |
| 4:48 | · | brown of skin and had blackish brown |
| 4:50 | · | eyes has led to a very small minority of |
| 4:53 | · | historians suggesting philipper may have |
| 4:56 | · | been black while it's true that in the |
| 4:58 | · | medieval world no one really cared what |
| 5:01 | · | you looked like as long as you had good |
| 5:03 | · | Regal ancestry and were wealthy we also |
| 5:07 | · | don't really know what these comments |
| 5:09 | · | mean her father was also described as |
| 5:13 | · | being dark in Coloring but this could |
| 5:15 | · | have different meanings in the medieval |
| 5:18 | · | period to now looking back at Philip's |
| 5:21 | · | immediate ancestry going back six or |
| 5:24 | · | seven generations she had mainly |
| 5:27 | · | Hungarian Norwegian Finnish French and |
| 5:30 | · | Turkish ancestry knowing this it highly |
| 5:33 | · | unlikely Philippa was black but it's not |
| 5:36 | · | impossible she may have had olive skin |
| 5:39 | · | and dark eyes from her other layers of |
| 5:41 | · | ancestry which would also have resulted |
| 5:44 | · | in the description Bishop stapledon gave |
| 5:47 | · | not all Europeans were blue-eyed with |
| 5:49 | · | blonde hair in the Middle Ages many |
| 5:53 | · | people in Europe with darker skin were |
| 5:55 | · | also often described as being Moorish in |
| 5:58 | · | looks if not as a mo because she was not |
| 6:01 | · | a Muslim which stapledon would almost |
| 6:04 | · | certainly have used for philipper if she |
| 6:06 | · | was black there is also another |
| 6:09 | · | description of her that is often |
| 6:10 | · | overlooked and it's one philipper |
| 6:13 | · | herself would have likely seen and |
| 6:15 | · | approved that of her Epitaph on her |
| 6:19 | · | Epitaph she is described as tall and |
| 6:21 | · | straight and also being of ros8 hue this |
| 6:25 | · | suggests a rosecolor hue to her |
| 6:28 | · | complexion regardless of her looks it |
| 6:31 | · | was the alliance between England and |
| 6:34 | · | heol that was the most important aspect |
| 6:36 | · | of her coming marriage and Philippa |
| 6:39 | · | would have been aware of this back in |
| 6:41 | · | England Isabella and mortimer's invasion |
| 6:44 | · | was successful and Prince Edward was |
| 6:47 | · | placed on the throne as Edward III while |
| 6:51 | · | relations with the people of England and |
| 6:53 | · | with Scotland were temporarily sorted |
| 6:56 | · | into a truce on the 16th of December |
| 7:00 | · | 1327 Philippa set sail for England's |
| 7:03 | · | Shores accompanied by her father and a |
| 7:06 | · | retinue of hotter Lords ladies and |
| 7:09 | · | attendants one of her attendants her |
| 7:11 | · | Usher was a knight named P deoy who was |
| 7:15 | · | the father of Katherine swinford later |
| 7:19 | · | to become the lover and wife of John of |
| 7:22 | · | gaun one of philippa's future children |
| 7:25 | · | finally on Christmas Eve of that year |
| 7:28 | · | philipper entered London in state to a |
| 7:31 | · | rapturous and merry crowd thankful for |
| 7:34 | · | her embodiment as the treaty between |
| 7:37 | · | England and hey note on the 23rd of |
| 7:39 | · | January Philippa came to the city of |
| 7:42 | · | York meeting once again with her |
| 7:44 | · | intended groom Edward he apparently |
| 7:48 | · | kissed her hand and greeted her happily |
| 7:51 | · | before leading her to York castle where |
| 7:54 | · | she would stay until their wedding their |
| 7:56 | · | wedding took place just a day later on |
| 7:58 | · | the 24th of January in the middle of a |
| 8:01 | · | blizzard in the imposing York Minster |
| 8:05 | · | unlike other previous Queens Philippa |
| 8:08 | · | was Savvy enough to send a large chunk |
| 8:11 | · | of her Hein alter retinue home despite |
| 8:14 | · | her love for where she was born and |
| 8:16 | · | would instead have many English ladies |
| 8:18 | · | in Waiting in attendance alongside those |
| 8:21 | · | who stayed from her Homeland it was |
| 8:23 | · | something that would help the English |
| 8:25 | · | people warm to her as their Queen |
| 8:28 | · | however she also ensured there were more |
| 8:31 | · | ladies present at court than there had |
| 8:33 | · | ever been previously and this created a |
| 8:36 | · | civilizing effect on the male courtiers |
| 8:39 | · | the marriage was to be a happy one a |
| 8:42 | · | true partnership as the young royal |
| 8:45 | · | couple adored one another it's likely |
| 8:47 | · | Edward was overjoyed to have a bride he |
| 8:50 | · | would love after watching how his father |
| 8:53 | · | had treated his mother for so many years |
| 8:56 | · | no doubt made clear by his acquiescence |
| 8:58 | · | and care towards Isabella for the rest |
| 9:00 | · | of her life it was something Edward also |
| 9:03 | · | struggled with however despite being |
| 9:06 | · | instantly loved by the people and her |
| 9:09 | · | new husband Philippa would begin her |
| 9:11 | · | life as Queen a subordinate to her |
| 9:14 | · | mother-in-law Isabella Isabella had |
| 9:17 | · | spent much of her adult life as a queen |
| 9:20 | · | pushed to one side by her husband's male |
| 9:23 | · | favorites it was Little Wonder then when |
| 9:25 | · | she was finally able to have some |
| 9:28 | · | control over it events as well as being |
| 9:30 | · | her son's main advisor Isabella was |
| 9:34 | · | reluctant to relinquish any of that |
| 9:36 | · | control to a mere girl of 14 Philip's |
| 9:40 | · | coronation was pushed back indefinitely |
| 9:43 | · | and the da lands normally given to new |
| 9:45 | · | queens were instead still held by |
| 9:48 | · | Isabella Philippa was not given an |
| 9:51 | · | independent household of her own but was |
| 9:54 | · | expected to share the Kings there was |
| 9:57 | · | probably also a fair amount of of |
| 9:59 | · | jealousy towards the new Queen |
| 10:01 | · | regardless of Isabella's good points and |
| 10:04 | · | Philippa threatened the influence |
| 10:06 | · | Isabella had over her son but Philippa |
| 10:10 | · | wasn't completely without power letters |
| 10:13 | · | sent soon after her marriage from the |
| 10:15 | · | pope not only congratulated her on her |
| 10:18 | · | nuptuals but also reminded her of her |
| 10:21 | · | position in being able to influence the |
| 10:24 | · | king in all matters with the church a |
| 10:27 | · | few months later he gave Philip a |
| 10:29 | · | permission for a portable altar in her |
| 10:32 | · | chamber and to enter a nunery with a |
| 10:35 | · | large retinue as well as a Confessor |
| 10:38 | · | being able to give her Absolution if she |
| 10:40 | · | died suddenly but in return the pope |
| 10:44 | · | urged her to convince Edward of his |
| 10:46 | · | works with the church and to give some |
| 10:48 | · | property to the knights hospitalis it |
| 10:51 | · | wasn't until 1333 years later that |
| 10:55 | · | Edward's patience ran out philipper was |
| 10:58 | · | pregn pregnant with their first child |
| 11:01 | · | and the idea that the possible heir to |
| 11:03 | · | the English Throne might be born while |
| 11:05 | · | their mother wasn't even Queen was |
| 11:08 | · | Unthinkable tired of Roger Mortimer |
| 11:11 | · | acting like a king and overusing power |
| 11:13 | · | that wasn't his by right Edward decided |
| 11:16 | · | to quietly Garner support from the |
| 11:18 | · | church and Nobles Isabella and Mortimer |
| 11:21 | · | under increasing pressure gave up some |
| 11:24 | · | of the da lands to Philippa and her |
| 11:27 | · | coronation was finally arranged on the |
| 11:30 | · | 4th of March |
| 11:32 | · | 1330 Philippa was finally crowned as |
| 11:35 | · | Queen of England a few months later |
| 11:39 | · | Philippa went to Woodstock Palace to |
| 11:41 | · | prepare for the birth of her first child |
| 11:44 | · | to everyone's Joy she gave birth to a |
| 11:47 | · | healthy son on the 15th of June named |
| 11:51 | · | Edward of Woodstock and now the heir to |
| 11:54 | · | the English crown no expense was spared |
| 11:58 | · | and Edward III was generous in giving |
| 12:01 | · | gifts and money to the nursery |
| 12:03 | · | attendants and women who rocked the |
| 12:06 | · | infant to sleep but the tolerance for |
| 12:08 | · | Mortimer and Isabella's control over |
| 12:11 | · | Royal Affairs was weakening by this |
| 12:13 | · | point not long after Edward III formed a |
| 12:17 | · | coup to be rid of mortimer's influence |
| 12:20 | · | bursting in on him and his mother during |
| 12:23 | · | a meeting at Nottingham Castle and |
| 12:25 | · | arresting him on the 19th of October on |
| 12:29 | · | the 29th of November Mortimer was |
| 12:32 | · | executed at tyburn and Isabella would be |
| 12:35 | · | placed under loose house arrest for less |
| 12:38 | · | than 2 years she was held otherwise |
| 12:41 | · | innocent of events in an effort for |
| 12:44 | · | Edward to restore her tarnished |
| 12:46 | · | reputation and his family's honor it |
| 12:49 | · | wasn't until philipper gave birth to her |
| 12:52 | · | second child in March |
| 12:54 | · | 1332 their eldest daughter that Queen |
| 12:57 | · | Dowager Isabella was rehabilitated at |
| 13:00 | · | court The New Daughter was named |
| 13:02 | · | Isabella after her grandmother a sign |
| 13:06 | · | that Edward and philippo wanted to pull |
| 13:08 | · | their family back together but they were |
| 13:11 | · | also concerned with the show of regality |
| 13:13 | · | and power that they needed to give off |
| 13:16 | · | in the medieval period a strict |
| 13:18 | · | hierarchy was kept between royalty |
| 13:21 | · | nobility clergy and commoners in order |
| 13:25 | · | to do this clothing was used as an |
| 13:28 | · | outward reminder of one's place |
| 13:31 | · | philipper and Edward both spent lavishly |
| 13:33 | · | on rich clothes made of cloth of gold |
| 13:36 | · | velvet Miner cloaks and hoods and robes |
| 13:40 | · | embroidered with gold animals it would |
| 13:43 | · | become over the years a source of the |
| 13:46 | · | debt the couple were often in with her |
| 13:49 | · | mother-in-law now resigned to the |
| 13:51 | · | background noise of court philippo was |
| 13:54 | · | finally able to come forward and shine |
| 13:57 | · | as Queen now now 18 years old it's clear |
| 14:00 | · | she began to grow in confidence the |
| 14:03 | · | successive Wars England had been through |
| 14:06 | · | over the past few decades had left the |
| 14:08 | · | country in financial Straits and it was |
| 14:11 | · | philipper who would concentrate Edward's |
| 14:14 | · | efforts on Commercial expansion Edward |
| 14:17 | · | was already busy restoring his kingdom |
| 14:19 | · | through enlisting the support once more |
| 14:21 | · | of his Barons and Council ensuring |
| 14:24 | · | Parliament R regularly and brokering |
| 14:27 | · | lucrative foreign alliances philipper |
| 14:30 | · | promoted the idea of coal mining in |
| 14:32 | · | north umberland and other parts of the |
| 14:34 | · | northeast of England and she encouraged |
| 14:37 | · | Flemish Weavers to settle in Norwich |
| 14:40 | · | kickstarting the textile industry there |
| 14:43 | · | philipper also fulfilled her role as |
| 14:45 | · | Peacemaker by interceding with her |
| 14:48 | · | husband on no less than 76 occasions |
| 14:51 | · | usually for pardons for criminals |
| 14:54 | · | awaiting their punishment in the few |
| 14:56 | · | letters of hers that survive Philippa |
| 14:59 | · | often wrote on behalf of others and on |
| 15:02 | · | one occasion wrote to her lawyer asking |
| 15:05 | · | that the taxes raised in her lands be |
| 15:07 | · | paus while Her counsel and herself |
| 15:10 | · | worked out which were to her profit and |
| 15:13 | · | which could be dropped for the benefit |
| 15:15 | · | of her tenants she was also a great |
| 15:18 | · | Patron rebuilding the hospital of St |
| 15:21 | · | Catherine of the Tower and patronizing |
| 15:24 | · | several churches and abies including |
| 15:26 | · | gray fries in London and St Mary's in |
| 15:29 | · | yor philipper of course had another |
| 15:33 | · | major role as Queen and that was to |
| 15:35 | · | provide as many Royal children as |
| 15:37 | · | possible while she had already given |
| 15:40 | · | birth to Edward of Woodstock who was the |
| 15:42 | · | heir to his father's Crown it was always |
| 15:44 | · | sensible to have a few spares and many |
| 15:47 | · | children meant more opportunities to |
| 15:50 | · | create alliances with foreign kingdoms |
| 15:53 | · | she would go on to give birth altogether |
| 15:55 | · | to 12 children an amazing in feet at a |
| 15:59 | · | time when childbirth was often deadly |
| 16:01 | · | for women and infant mortality was high |
| 16:05 | · | nine of their children would live beyond |
| 16:07 | · | infancy with five of their sons reaching |
| 16:10 | · | adulthood which would cause its own |
| 16:13 | · | problems later on with their descendants |
| 16:15 | · | using their lineage back to Edward iiii |
| 16:18 | · | as a basis for the wars of the Roses but |
| 16:21 | · | Edward and philipp's Court would become |
| 16:23 | · | known for its romantic and chalc |
| 16:26 | · | associations the knights military-minded |
| 16:29 | · | men at court would enjoy hearing tales |
| 16:32 | · | and songs about Marshal exploits while |
| 16:35 | · | the women at court enjoyed romances and |
| 16:37 | · | poems that leaned into the bardy and |
| 16:40 | · | erotic the two genres fed into the ideas |
| 16:43 | · | about courtly romance a medieval idea |
| 16:47 | · | that made it acceptable desirable even |
| 16:50 | · | for male courtiers and especially the |
| 16:52 | · | king to entertain and flirt with ladies |
| 16:55 | · | of the court but while philippo was the |
| 16:58 | · | a perfect partner to Edward it was in |
| 17:01 | · | 1346 she would get her Taste of holding |
| 17:04 | · | power in her own right in |
| 17:07 | · | 1338 Edward had formerly made a claim |
| 17:10 | · | for the French throne using his lineage |
| 17:13 | · | through his mother Isabella who was |
| 17:15 | · | daughter of Philip IV of France this |
| 17:18 | · | would Kickstart the series of conflicts |
| 17:21 | · | known as the Hundred Years War he used |
| 17:24 | · | philippa's connections with the low |
| 17:26 | · | countries through her siblings and other |
| 17:28 | · | family to start his campaign in Flanders |
| 17:31 | · | taking his Queen with him the people of |
| 17:35 | · | Flanders hated their count Louis the who |
| 17:38 | · | had Allied himself with France through |
| 17:40 | · | his marriage and so they were happy to |
| 17:43 | · | receive Edward as the French King there |
| 17:46 | · | is evidence that Philipa aided her |
| 17:48 | · | husband behind the scenes paying spies |
| 17:51 | · | to report on Philip I 6 of France and |
| 17:54 | · | maintaining a good relationship with |
| 17:57 | · | Pope Clement II to keep him on side the |
| 18:00 | · | wars continued on over the years with |
| 18:03 | · | the royal couple flitting between |
| 18:05 | · | England and France until |
| 18:07 | · | 1346 by now Prince Edward of Woodstock |
| 18:10 | · | was 16 years old a strapping young man |
| 18:14 | · | ready for a fight and he accompanied his |
| 18:17 | · | father to France on campaign engaging in |
| 18:20 | · | one of the most important battles of the |
| 18:22 | · | conflict the Battle of Cy on the 26th of |
| 18:25 | · | August Philippa was for the first time |
| 18:28 | · | appointed Regent in the king's absence |
| 18:31 | · | while she ably administered the kingdom |
| 18:34 | · | she would be faced with a far greater |
| 18:36 | · | challenge when David II of Scotland |
| 18:39 | · | decided to take advantage of Edward III |
| 18:42 | · | being in France and invaded England in |
| 18:45 | · | the Autumn perhaps no one had thought |
| 18:48 | · | the gentle kind Queen who was known for |
| 18:50 | · | her acts of Mercy would be good at |
| 18:52 | · | defending the kingdom but they were |
| 18:55 | · | about to be proved wrong David II got no |
| 18:59 | · | further than York as in October philippo |
| 19:02 | · | raised 12,000 men from the north to |

| 19:13 | · | Neville Jean quon's account of events |
| 19:16 | · | states that Philippa knew that if she |
| 19:18 | · | was actually seen by the people in the |
| 19:20 | · | north of England it would help and so |
| 19:23 | · | she traveled to Newcastle upon time |
| 19:26 | · | before battle ensued she rode on a white |
| 19:29 | · | horse from Battalion to Battalion |
| 19:32 | · | charging them to fight bravely and for |
| 19:34 | · | the honor of the king of England on the |
| 19:37 | · | 17th of October the Battle of Neville's |
| 19:40 | · | cross was fought to the north of Durham |
| 19:43 | · | and David II was taken prisoner it was a |
| 19:47 | · | victory for the English but a far |
| 19:50 | · | greater foe was coming in |
| 19:53 | · | 1347 this time in the form of the |
| 19:56 | · | terrifying pandemic that swept across |
| 19:58 | · | Europe the plague known as the Black |
| 20:02 | · | Death it would retain a shadow over |
| 20:04 | · | Europe until around |
| 20:07 | · | 1351 and being rich or Royal was no |
| 20:10 | · | defense against it in |
| 20:13 | · | 1348 philipper and Edward's 15-year-old |
| 20:16 | · | daughter Janes succumbed to the plague |
| 20:18 | · | on the 1st of July they were devastated |
| 20:22 | · | when they heard the news and sources |
| 20:24 | · | show they were heartbroken at her death |
| 20:27 | · | just a few months later in early |
| 20:29 | · | September their 3-month-old son William |
| 20:32 | · | also died possibly also of the plague |
| 20:36 | · | the Black Death changed the social |
| 20:38 | · | landscape of England with commoners for |
| 20:41 | · | the first time finding their skills in |
| 20:44 | · | demand as Manpower was lost with |
| 20:47 | · | countless deaths and those who survived |
| 20:50 | · | the plague would help sound the death |
| 20:52 | · | Nowell for feudalism now well into her |
| 20:55 | · | 40s Philippa would give birth to her |
| 20:58 | · | final child Thomas on the 7th of January |
| 21:03 | · | 1355 she now had a fairly good |
| 21:06 | · | relationship with her mother-in-law |
| 21:08 | · | Isabella and when her sister-in-law Joan |
| 21:10 | · | of the tower decided to leave her |
| 21:13 | · | Unfaithful husband David II for good |
| 21:16 | · | once he was released and allowed to |
| 21:18 | · | return to Scotland in |
| 21:20 | · | 1357 both Philipa and Isabella were |
| 21:23 | · | frequent visitors to her together |
| 21:26 | · | Isabella adored her grandson Prince |
| 21:29 | · | Edward who would later be known from the |
| 21:31 | · | 16th century onwards as the black prince |
| 21:34 | · | and she often entertained both him and |
| 21:36 | · | philipper at her properties until her |
| 21:39 | · | death on the 22nd of August |
| 21:43 | · | 1358 in her later years from around |
| 21:47 | · | 1361 now well into late middle age for |
| 21:50 | · | the medieval period philipper began to |
| 21:53 | · | suffer from what was known as dropsy |
| 21:56 | · | nowadays we would call this edema which |
| 21:59 | · | can be a symptom of heart or kidney |
| 22:01 | · | failure thrombosis or liver problems |
| 22:03 | · | amongst other things by |
| 22:06 | · | 1365 Philippa all but stopped traveling |
| 22:10 | · | suffering far too much and her tomb |
| 22:12 | · | Effigy was created it was the first |
| 22:16 | · | English Royal Effigy to be created with |
| 22:19 | · | realism and was likely to have been |
| 22:21 | · | created from Philip's Living Image on |
| 22:24 | · | the 14th of August |
| 22:26 | · | 1369 philipper was given the last |
| 22:30 | · | Sacrament and asked to see the King |
| 22:33 | · | Edward III came and held her hand and |
| 22:36 | · | reportedly wept as she asked him to |
| 22:39 | · | release her from any engagements with |
| 22:41 | · | Traders she had made see that gifts she |
| 22:43 | · | had promised to the church would be made |
| 22:45 | · | for her and that when it was the king's |
| 22:48 | · | time to die he would be interred by her |
| 22:51 | · | side Edward agreed to these terms and |
| 22:54 | · | Philippa died in her bed the next day on |
| 22:57 | · | the 15 |
| 22:58 | · | on the 9th of January nearly 6 months |
| 23:01 | · | after her death and after a magnificent |
| 23:05 | · | funeral ceremony in London on the 3 |
| 23:08 | · | philipper was buried in Westminster |
| 23:10 | · | Abbey philipper had been an example of |
| 23:13 | · | what was expected of a medieval queen a |
| 23:16 | · | paragon of her peers she and Edward had |
| 23:20 | · | had a successful marriage of 41 years |
| 23:23 | · | and she had given birth to 12 children |
| 23:26 | · | seeing many of them survive into |
| 23:28 | · | adulthood Philippa had endured her |
| 23:31 | · | mother-in-law's early jealousy to become |
| 23:34 | · | good friends with her later in life she |
| 23:37 | · | had made herself popular amongst the |
| 23:39 | · | English people not known for their |
| 23:42 | · | tolerance with foreign queens and yet |
| 23:45 | · | had kept ties with her Homeland her |
| 23:48 | · | gentle and kind nature had led her to |
| 23:50 | · | successfully intercede with her husband |
| 23:53 | · | to Pardon many and she was renowned for |
| 23:56 | · | her sweet nature |
| 23:58 | · | but equally philipper had also proven |
| 24:01 | · | herself willing to defend her adopted |
| 24:04 | · | Kingdom rallying defense of the country |
| 24:07 | · | in her King's absence Philippa was the |
| 24:10 | · | Romantic ideal of a medieval queen and |
| 24:13 | · | despite her quiet personality was by no |
| 24:16 | · | means a weak one she was a feminine yet |
| 24:20 | · | strong woman who carried out the duties |
| 24:22 | · | expected of her at the time but also |
| 24:25 | · | made her presence felt in her own way |
| 24:27 | · | way it is perhaps due to philipper being |
| 24:30 | · | so well behaved that she is remembered |
| 24:34 | · | Less in history especially alongside her |
| 24:37 | · | more famous mother-in-law but she |
| 24:39 | · | deserves to be remembered as a woman who |
| 24:42 | · | brought stability and peace to a country |
