Love your site! Great ideas for photos.
Quick note: Mary QofS didn't plan the murder of David Rizzio. He was an Italian courtier who became one of her inner circle. Her husband, Lord Darnley and his pals murdered him for various reasons, one of which was that her close friendship with Rizzio 'cuckolded' Darnley.

Hi Juliet, thank you! I've checked most of my references for Mary QofS and I never once said she planned the murder of David Rizzio. I know she was fond of him. She was suspected, however, of murdering her husband Lord Darnley after the murder of Rizzio. Many peolpe thought she wanted revenge. Hence why she fled court. Please let me know where I wrote that. It was probably a mistake and I'll edit the post. Sophie x
