-My name is Sara Huws. I work in St

-Fagans as an Education Interpreter.

0:00:050:00:09

-That means

-I use many different methods...

0:00:100:00:13

-..to try and discover

-how people used to live.

0:00:130:00:17

-People react differently

-to me as Sara...

0:00:190:00:21

-..and as Sara dressed up

-in Tudor period costume.

0:00:220:00:24

-People are more likely

-to touch us and our clothes.

0:00:260:00:30

-When we sit down

-and eat in our costumes....

0:00:300:00:34

-..the cameras come out.

0:00:340:00:36

-People love taking photographs

-and asking questions.

0:00:360:00:40

-When people think about

-the Tudor period...

0:00:430:00:46

-..they think about Henry VIII

-and Baldrick...

0:00:460:00:49

-..with not much else in between.

0:00:490:00:51

-But from our research

-at St Fagans...

0:00:520:00:54

-..and our work with universities

-and different institutions...

0:00:540:00:58

-..we've been able to find out

-about the ones in the middle.

0:00:580:01:03

-A group of people come to live

-in this house every two years.

0:01:040:01:08

-They are professional Tudors.

0:01:090:01:11

-One of the girls who works with them

-taught me how to do this.

0:01:110:01:15

-People from the period...

0:01:160:01:18

-..wouldn't have used a mirror

-unless they were well off.

0:01:180:01:22

-If I'm interpreting in costume,

-I have a lot of preparation to do.

0:01:240:01:29

-I have to get into the costume.

0:01:290:01:31

-It's not hard

-but it's not too comfortable either.

0:01:310:01:36

-Lift both over your head

-and create an X shape.

0:01:360:01:40

-Pull tightly

-and then you can tie it at the back.

0:01:410:01:45

-That's how you do Tudor plaits.

0:01:460:01:49

-I've inherited costumes

-but I haven't inherited a persona.

0:01:500:01:54

-I have tough choices to make.

0:01:550:01:57

-Do I want to be a widow,

-a spinster...

0:01:570:02:00

-..or a mother of nine

-out in the fields?

0:02:000:02:03

-What Tudor story

-do I want to tell the visitors?

0:02:040:02:07

-Parts of this costume

-are uncomfortable.

0:02:090:02:12

-One of my favourites

-is also the most uncomfortable.

0:02:120:02:16

-One of the most interesting things

-about the costume...

0:02:170:02:20

-..is that the corset

-has been made out of wood.

0:02:200:02:23

-That was quite common.

0:02:230:02:24

-People who couldn't afford

-to use whalebone...

0:02:250:02:28

-..used alternative materials

-such as elder, as it's so flexible.

0:02:280:02:32

-A less flexible piece called a

-stomacher was used down the middle.

0:02:320:02:37

-This is a replica.

0:02:400:02:42

-There are some symbols which

-you would find on love spoons...

0:02:420:02:46

-..a heart, a tree and the sun.

0:02:460:02:49

-Lovers used to give one of these

-to each other as a present.

0:02:490:02:54

-It was like receiving a corset.

0:02:540:02:57

-This is something to wear

-close to your heart...

0:02:570:03:00

-..but which also keeps you upright.

0:03:000:03:04

-One of the most useful things

-about the stomacher...

0:03:050:03:09

-..is your mobile phone

-slots in quite comfortably!
