About the Business
Sir Tony Robinson - I'm pretty passionate about the history of the North East, particularly those mysterious early years of the Northumbrian Dynasty after the Romans had left Britain. So I suppose it was inevitable that someday I would end up at Bamburgh Castle, following in the footsteps of St Aidan. I've enjoyed working there both with 'Time Team' and 'Walking Through History', discovering for myself why people are so fascinated by this colossal piece of architecture. From its Anglo-Saxon origins to its Victorian chimney pots it is bursting with history, and it was great fun helping to recreate the Anglo-Saxon throne which would have played such an important part in the making of this iconic castle.
