Research On The Background

-Men dressed as indians led by a man called Samuel Adams dumped £10,000 (£636,000 by modern day) worth of tea into the harbour.
The Earl
- Built the castle1776 as a hunting lodge but soon changed its name to Boston Castle because he felt that strongly about the American Revolution. He believed America should have their independence.
- The Earl was also expected to fight in the war against America.

Change Of Idea
We are no longer going to include the reenactment because we do not think that it would be suitable for a children TV programme as it would not keep the attention of the children. Instead we are going to have Lisa Blythe and Daniel Simpson wearing plain clothes, a white top and dark trousers. Lisa with the Union Jack on her top, and Daniel with the American Flag. (It would be a good idea that Daniel speaks in an American accent). They are going to have a conversation/argument about the situation surrounding the Boston Tea Party. Just to give children an insight into why Boston Castle is named as it is, and also a little extra information even though it is not to do with Boston Castle but the American War Of Independence.
