In the minute that is skipped over: "So far, Henry, who rather disliked direct confrontation, had lacked the backbone with which to challenge his councilors head-on, now Wolsey provided the backbone for him. This is the document with which Wolsey began to free Henry from the thrall of his councilors. It's a signed bill, granting a Lincolnshire rectory, in itself, its nothing. The Devil is in the rubric, instructing the Chancellor to make the grant on the authority of the King's signature alone with no need for authentication by the Course of the Seals. This was to undermine the whole basis of the council's control of royal patronage, and Warham objected. But Wolsey, who presented the document in person, smoothly responded that, 'such was the King's will'. This was unanswerable, and all Warham could do was to add an acid little note here, right at the bottom of the document. Ut acer wit dictus dominus Wolsey (Forgive me if my Latin spelling is off), So said the aforementioned Master Wolsey. Wolsey had now shown that he could give Henry what Henry wanted, and what Henry wanted was war. With Wolsey supplying the means, all Henry lacked was the opportunity. It soon came when Pope Julius II and King Louis XII of France went to war over the Italian city states ruled by the Papacy. Invoking the spiritual weapons of the church, Julius excommunicated Louis and formed a Holy League of sympathetic countries to wage a crusade against infidel France." And then it picks up again.

He was a tormented tyrant. I don't condone what he did but I can see 2 sides of the story.. He had a terrible accident from jousting that he never really recovered from . He was in a lot of pain constantly, and under intense pressure to save his kingdom by having a male heir. France and Spain were often giving him concerns. I welcome anyone to go through what he went through and come away sweet tempered . Plus some historians wonder if he had brain damage from that jousting accident which would affect his personality too.

Every time I think of Charles V leading Henry VIII down the garden path all I think of is that Henry VII would not have fallen for that. I mean, just to be clear Henry VII was financing the Habsburgs, but he was doing so by his own extorsions to weaken his own enemies (overmighty nobles and the French) not beggaring his own subjects. Henry VIII thought he was the elder statesman, but Charles V had the experience of his Burgundian upbringing where it was not an easy time of things.

It is my hope Sir Richard was Prince Henry's tutor in the tiltyard. Info please. :-) Arms - Argent, a fess between three crescents sable.

On what grounds do you make that proclamation? There are several living experts in the Tudor period, Starkey among them for certain. Some are quietly employed by, or recently retired from, various universities and actively research, publish, and teach aspects of Tudor history and culture at an extremely high level-they just happen not to have striven for a TV career and so are largely unknown by the general public. So settle down with the toadying encomium to ‘King Starkey’. It’s unbecoming.

The young Henry in this documentary reminds me of a modern Henry of royal descent: Henry/Harry. They certainly picked a British looking chap to play him

There certainly are a lot of parallels with modern day Harry: the second born son status, the looks, the loss of an adored mother at roughly the same age, the display of injured entitlement, and the constant adulation of sycophants. All of these things do not produce a well-balanced personality. When the pressures of kingship are added, personalities deconstruct. Manners may paper over the cracks for a while, but eventually the true personality emerges.

I’ve always had great admiration for his knowledge and passion. He messed up a few years ago by making an inappropriate comment and put himself into disgrace. I don’t approve of what he said, but all these years on I feel sad that it finished his career. He fucked up, but it shouldn’t wipe him out. This is the first thing I’ve watched him for years and I still think he’s a brilliant historian with a passion I love and share.

As an historian, and Tudor authority, Dr. Starkey has no equal. One sees his touch in every aspect of these videos, from the stirring music to the cinematography, to his matchless delivery of his scrupulous research, which brings these historical figures to startlingly vivid life.
