A brilliant woman to whom I’m grateful for her work bringing Ann Lister to life. Thank you!!

Look at all these men posting negative comments!

I never tire of hearing the stories from Anne Lister - I so wish the BBC had been willing to renew their contract to continue with Gentleman Jack - it's a crime that there are no more

What an incredible lady . . . . . . Thank you not just for the character of Anne Lister but a window into the "class" system and the hard and terrible times for the working people. She certainly rose above it all . . . . . . . . . Thank You!

Fascinating . . . . I have only just come across the descriptions by Ms Whitbread and they are amazing. They give "life" to Anne Lister.

I am so grateful to you for your work.

So very interesting. Not only have you done something for your town, but for the world!

I grew up with old photos of shibdon gracing on side of our hallways. My mothers ancestors castles in Ireland on the other. My dad's family is from Queensbury. I can't remember how it goes now, but he's related to the listers by way of a cousin. My mom's family decended from Ireland and came to the US in the early 1900's. Going to shibdon has been on my bucket list for as long as I can remember. My whole family was thrilled when they filmed Gentleman Jack. We've been sorely saddened by the fact that they aren't renuing for season 3. I hope they change their minds. For those who don't know, when Anne passed away, she was still with Ann Walker. But it took over 6 MNTHS to get her body back to shibdon. Back then they were just dabbling with embalming via the arteries. Ann walker wanted Anne lister well preserved, so she spared no expense to have Anne brought back to Halifax in good condition. Her funeral was so big it lined the streets. Thousands of people from all walks of life came to wish her farewell. She was loved and well liked by everyone. From what my dad has told me, even those who didn't like her did like her if than makes sense. She was respected. So sad how she passed away... but while alive, she sure did live!!

Magnificent story! Thank you so much for your beautifully marvelous work, Dr. Helena Whitbread. You made the world smile🥰🌻

Halifax is such a beautiful place, so rich in culture 😊

11.30 so interesting thank you

Please forgive me for my total ignorance, and it is truly something that has puzzled me for a very long time, Same sex marriages/partnerships,- how do couples get to understand who will be wife and who Husband?,( Ann lister seems obvious, very masculine for the time) I hope I don't offend by querying this.

Extraordinary woman, Ms. Whitbread. She has well exceeded her comment of, “doing something for her town.” Thank you for bringing Anne Lister to life for the world to know!

Thank you for bringing her to us, to inspire and live our true self❤

What an interesting knowledgeable woman? She's forthright and clever just like Anne Lister, I think Helena and Anne would have been great friends if either one or the other would have been born in each other's centuries! It's a breath of fresh air to actually see and hear strong, intelligent and intellectual women as our role models? Bring on more topics that include these women on TV and within the media!! ❤

What an amazing research project this must have been. Nice work, Helena Whitbread and thank you for sharing this.

RUBBISH NO 7 YEAR OLD CHILD WOULD RUN INTO TOWN AT NIGHT TO SEE WILD WOMEN SEXUALLY. YOU ARE DESCRIBING PEDOPHIA. AND ENDORSING IT. THIS IS CLEARLY FALSE & OFFENSIVE..

Helena you're a massive inspiration, thank you for all your hard work and dedication. You should be incrediblely proud of the work you have done and you really did start the slow fuse.

Understand that during her rise that in the 1980's an associates mother graduated from MIT at the age of 19 and after much effort, the best job she could get was that of a "secretary". This was the 1980's. Not that long ago so figure out why women are still struggling to rise in the ranks.

Hat a remarkable woman! She just kept taking the next step forward.

Very Interesting. What a Wonderful forward thinking Woman. Thankyou for all you have done in bringing the Important story of Anne Lister to light

In my opinion, Gentleman Jack is an insult to Anne Lister. It caricatures a woman who was so much more than a male clone. Thank you, Ms Whitbread, for your pioneering work on Anne Lister. She deserves more than a prurient TV series featuring women bonking, as a friend described it.

What an impressive life. And with some strong similarities with Anne Lister: Resilience in the face of adverse circumstances, a remarkable drive to follow her passions, a zeal to read and educate herself. She's really the fittest person to have published those diaries.

Thankyou Dr Helena Whitbread for uncovering and sharing the wonderful life of Anne Lister ❤

So lovely to get to know Helena better. Thank you, Dr Whitbread & WYAS sharing Anne Listers with the world! What a gift!

Are you sure that is Anne in the first portrait shown? That looks very much like a painting or drawing from the 1600's, not the 1800's. The neck ruff was most definitely a trend during the Elizabethan era, but I'm not sure it was in the Victorian era. Just curious. Are there any more portraits of Anne that survived time's destructive tendencies?

... so ein Luder - und Loriot liebt seine Pussy - ach Mama.

Thank you!

Why isn't the tower open to the public?

What a wonderful film

Wonderful

Beautiful video. Helena Whitbread is extraordinary. I really enjoyed learning about her life. I'm grateful for her work. Being a fan of the series Gentleman Jack, I soon found myself reading her books! Thank you 🎩

I am such a huge Helena Whitbread fan! What an inspiring woman. Without her work we would not know about Anne Lister. She teaches us it doesn’t matter where you come from or how old you are you can make something of yourself. I have been to a few of her talks and she is my absolute favourite speaker, so funny and interesting but so humble.Thank you Helena for all that you have done 🙏❤️

Beautiful 🌹Dr. Helena Whitbread - thank you 🥰

I enjoyed that video very much, the visit to Shibden Hall and the video of Helena we saw at Shibden Hall. What an amazing woman Helena is.

What an exceptional lady! An example to all women to never give up and follow your dream. This determination contributed to the wonderful drama “Gentleman Jack” enjoyed by thousands.

come on everybody give 👍 This lady is exceptional

Amazing remarkable lady

What a phenomenal, humble and extremely gifted lady Helena is......... we have so much to thank her for, as her dedication and perseverance in bringing the story of Anne Lister into our lives has touched the hearts of fans all over the world.

Really enjoy this Helena thanks for all you did in breaking the code. So Sally could do a wonderful drama series Gentlemen Jack aka Anne Lister 🎩🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍🌈

Thank you so much for producing such a wonderful film of such an extraordinary woman. We have so much to be grateful to Helena for

❤❤

Wonder if she was trans.

Amazing story. What an amazing and inspirational person Anne was and I'm not even a lesbian.

WOW !!! Thank you, Helena, with great love.

What a confused individual She was, no surprises there then, elites act the same way today, using other people and their money etc, to get their own way, I love Stately homes...on behalf of the folk who built them with their skill levels,....not for the scum past and present who lived in them Last time I went to Shibden Hall was when I was 9 years old in 1970 on a coach from Ryburn high school, still live here and now i'll go back and admire the workmanship that went on there.

I know Sally W, my ex lives in the same Farm when She is home, and my next door neighbour is the Lady in the vid talking about the diaries being found in the wall LOL, small World

Thank you😍😍 It's wonderfull!

Fáscinating ! I just saw the Gentleman Jack series, which was marvelously done and afterwards I stumbled upon this wonderful video here on YT, which I enjoyed very much. THX for sharing. History is so enriching for our lives in many ways. Quite understandably during this current [ fabricated ] crisis the powers that be do nót like it when one actually knows a lot about several aspects of our history, because one is able to produce comparisons of inconvenient truths in relation to the criminal doings of the powers that be of today.

What a story what a lady , to meet her would have been an experience, a good one to boot !!!
