A portrait of Lady Arbella Stuart by ALISON PLOWDEN with Alethea Charlton , Pauline Letts Maureen O'Brien and Alan Rowe Arbella was the last of the unfortunate female descendants of Henry VIII's sisters. As such she was regarded by some as a future Queen of England: but by others as a potential threat, first to Elizabeth and then to James I. Producer
