This narrator has a great voice for historical documentaries. It is clear, captivating, and commands one's attention.

Fun fact: all of Henry's wifes and himself were related, although you have to go back 200 years to find the common ancestor, Edward I.

Not Anne of Cleves though!

This is possibly one of the most interesting programmes l have seen on Henry V111 ...having read much about him it was good to know that inadvertently he left important legacies..including historical fascination with his reign for ever ...

THANK YOU...!!!

The pain he would have been in would be beyond excruciating. Leg ulcers are more painful than kidney stones. And nothing to even take the edge off of his pain and nothing to cure the infection.

A Paranoid Ruthless Tyrant just like Joseph Stalin

[@DonnellOkafor-pd7yn]

Same with Ceacescu, Hitler, Kim jong un, King jong Il, Pol Pot, Papa Doc Duvalier

[@alitatorjusen9437]

What makes Catherine Howard "a silly, silly" girl, please? A statement like that discards the whole documentary. The statement is outrageously unprofessional for a historian.

The actor playing Ann is a babe.
