[00:01.811]Some of the lords, led by the powerful Earl of Lancaster,
[00:04.912]had seized Gaveston and sentenced him to death in a show trial.
[00:12.049]Gaveston was taken out onto a sunny hillside near Warwick
[00:15.611]and his head hacked from his body.
[00:22.760]Isabella's rival was gone,
[00:25.060]and now her position was about to become even stronger.
[00:30.278]On 12th of November 1312, Isabella went into labour.
[00:34.334]Shortly before six the next morning, she gave birth to a boy.
[00:38.758]The 17-year-old Queen kept her own counsel, 17
[00:41.400]but she had already learned a great deal.
[00:43.665]Her husband, she now knew, had much passion and little judgment.
[00:47.563]His nobles were men to be reckoned with.
[00:50.333]And now, with her son in her arms,
[00:52.449]Isabella herself held the key
[00:54.350]that would transform her power as Queen.
