"Our little boy is a wonderfully strong & large child" wrote Queen Victoria of the future Edward VII, who was born #OTD 1841, "I hope & pray he will be like his dearest Papa." Hmmmm.

Reflective portrait of Baba Beaton, sister of Cecil Beaton, later Mrs Alec Hambro. Photograph by #MadameYevonde published in The Sketch #OTD in 1932

Happy Birthday to Tilda Swinton, who was born #OTD in 1960. As we always like to give things a historical twist, let's celebrate with a still of her playing the gender-shifting, time travelling Orlando in 1992

Wounded, 1854-1918. Officers playing cards at the Army & Navy Club by Lt Charles Kennaway. The painting in the background is 'Saving the Colours' by Robert Gibbs showing the Battle of Inkerman which took place #OTD in 1854

Another fabulously spooky image for #Halloween from our archives. Postcard featuring a witch having a high old time dancing with her black cat and a pumpkin on her broomstick. From the Steve Rumney Collection @Mary_Evans #halloween #spooky #witches #cats #scary

Knitting an outfit for the #RoyalBaby? You could take inspiration from this one! A very jolly baby models a knitted hooded matinee jacket in red with a bunny motif and matching tights by the royal designer, Margaret Youngs. ©The Joyce Meader Collection @Mary Evans Picture

We're looking forward to a new series starting tonight at 9pm on @HistoryUK, when @alMurray asks the age-old question - Why Does Everyone #HateTheEnglish? @Mary_Evans are delighted to have supplied some of the images used in this production.
