  • Had Ol' Henry lived in modern times, he'd have made the Jerry Springer show, he would've been booed by all and deserved it........

  • What Anne said at 2:24 to 2:30.... so sad that they didn't know, at that time, that it was false! It is not dangerous at all for a pregnant woman to make love! I even heard that it was good for the child!

  • oh wow her red dressing gown (or bathrobe?) is so beautiful! I want one like that! ;)

  • oh and using wikipedia as a reference? LOL use google...there are many other resources that are more accurate and factual

  • LMAO at some of the comments on here...lol It's pretty clear people don't understand or know much about history. Yet feel they are an authority to speak about it basd on a made for TV show that is not factual at all except about the basics. MAJOR EXAMPLE. Henry had 2 sisters not one...they used the history of one but called her the wrong name..MAJOR slap in the face. As for Anne of Cleves he basically adopted her as a sister. As to Pope's having mistresses lmao off again. Celibacy was introduced

  • Each time I see anything about Henry VIII, I shudder and become grateful I am a woman living in the 21st century. When you're a woman, you KNOW the truth about men's hypocrisy, regardless of whatever lofty religion or scientific logic they claim to ascribe to -- because as a woman, you are always the first victim of their hypocrisy. Imagine how in-your-face that hypocrisy was during Henry VIII's time. Bah.

  • NATURAL?!?!?!?!?!?!? screw that!!! it might be natural, but not when you're married! and your wife is pregnant!!

  • I love Anne's wardrobe :)

  • What annoys me in this time is; When a Queen cheated - it was treason. But the king slept around all the time - it was nothing.

    -That is the only thing I hate about this time. Or there is much more things that I hate - but this is the thing I hated the most.

  • @KaterinaPetrovaPierc You are absolutely right it was awful injustice Henry should execute for him unfaithful as him poor wives one of them was innocent

  • @ZZZANNAMARIYZZZ I just hate it, the way he treated his wifes - Especially Katherine(Howard) and Anne(Boleyn). He should have showed them kindness - I mean .. under his marriage with Anne (Boleyn ) he slept with that blond girl and Marge. And under his marriage to Katherine he slept with Anne of Cleves.

  • @KaterinaPetrovaPierc he did that in the show, in reality he never slept with anne of cleves, neither the other two with anne boleyn, they were all fiction, although i believe that marge was based on somebody that anne was related to.

  • @peacedesertroseI You're a bit mistake even in the show Henry didn't sleep with Anne of Cleves

  • @ZZZANNAMARIYZZZ yes he did in the show, as he ended up finding her attractive. in reality that never happened.

  • @ZZZANNAMARIYZZZ yes he did...

  • @peacedesertrose Madge Sheldon was her cousin and lady in waiting, Henry took her as a mistress while Anne was pregnant the second time I believe.

  • it's so awfully Queens should choosed mistresess for them husbands

  • BAck then it was accepted dogma that a man take a mistress while his wife is pregnant.

  • There wasnt any prove in the history that Henry had many mistress as the show tells us. The history mentioned 2 and one of them were Anne Boleyn's sister ( go wikipedia)

  • I just realised Anne and Henry's marriage was anuled then "Anne's adultry" (I know she didn't really commit adultry) wasn't really adultry if "they weren't married"

  • @MsAbbie101

    There was still the charges of incest, witchcraft, and plotting to kill the king. All of which equal burning.

  • It is really amazing how everything Queen Anne helped to visit on Queen Katherine came back to visit her. In season one,she Now she's terrified of every woman at court and afraid he'll cheat on her! The concept of"what he did with you,he'll do to you" escapes her. It is stunning how women who help to tear another woman's house down are SHOCKED when the same thing happens to them.

  • I don't seen this scene on TV

  • poor Anne

  • What an awful time to be a woman!

  • @GoddessofHyrule ...I was gonna say the same! Poor women! They were first ruled by their father and then their husband!

  • @GoddessofHyrule In many parts of the world it's STILL "an awful time to be a woman!"--

  • @GoddessofHyrule yay for 21st century feminine freedom

  • That is such a lie what her father just said, "it is natural to take a misstress, while the wife is not unable to lie with him" what the hell, is he smoking or even reading, I am pretty sure that in the bible it says somthing about, "Though shall not committ Adultry"? and that is what her stupid Husband the king is doing, so if they are going by the law of the bible, Henry should have died a long time ago.

  • true true.. but realise the purpose of religion, in the first instance in pre-medieval times was to assert a degree of control over the masses, by creating a ordered society.. nobles and the like, even in the church, bishops and so forth.. even the popes had mistresses (15th century).. u may not believe me, but history does not lie.. as much =D

  • The popes did not have mistresses. Where is your proof?

  • the years between 1200-1500, the church very different, such that men like the medici family of florence could buy there way into the papacy.. many royal families and afluent merchant families could buy there way into the papacy. the medici family even, sponsored a pirate into the cardinalship. u want proof ? look up wiki. (or a history book on the papacy)

  • amen

  • LOL Thank you!!. for agreeing with me!

  • @Hattaru amen! i thought it was utter bullshit when i heard it as well, sexist misogynist pigs

  • @Hattaru No one followed Bible in the Court! 

  • @Hattaru unfortunately, back then, it was the norm. Its times like these i'm so happy to be born in this day in age

  • @Kittycat918 Unfortunately it is going back to the norm. More and more people are beginning to commit adultery and be unapologetic about it. I may not even get married.

  • @Kittycat918 be happy that you were born in the 'particular part of the world' that you were---had you been born in parts of Asia, Middle East , and Africa, then your plight as a woman would be 'the same'--just like the Dark Ages! Have you any idea what IT IS LIKE TO BE A WOMAN IN THESE PLACES?! History/geography 101...

  • @Hattaru yeah I suppose but all the men take mistresses and expect their wives to be submissive and obedient nonetheless in those days. yes I do agree though that for someone who is quite a religious person, Henry does not seem to care about his immortal soul which since they do talk of that a lot, you might expect him to. :)

  • @Hattaru There are rules for the working class and there are rules for Kings, or better, for Kings there are no rules at all!! They can do whatever they want. And yes he is a christian But if a christian commit a sin, you go to a priest and ask for forgiviness. What priest (who would like to keep his head) would dare to refuse a King that?

    Is this fair? No! Was it every day reality? Yes!

  • @amarieoflothlorien Anne and Henry should take there own advise, I find it funny that she points to the bible and quots " You must read, you should read that book, you will learn a great deal more form it, prehaps even some wisdom" well she sure did not read the bible that well, because she was having an afair with a married man, Well Henry is a bastard always will be, he is not a great king, he is known for his wives and how he treated them, what shame!! to be known for only that.

  • @Hattaru just so you know, anne refused to sleep with henry.... that's why he made her queen and didn't just take her as a mistress....

  • Then of course, there was her lecture about behavior when she swore in her new household. As if she had the right to talk about 'discreet, chaste, virtuous.'

  • @TheNuharoo i think that whole bit about being chaste and virtuous was probbably an attempt to keep her ladies from doing to her what she did to kathrine :P

  • @hyperswain Anne Boleyn was very religious - she did it for religious purposes.

  • @TheNuharoo She had every right too.

  • @Hattaru And to make the best of it, he was the head of the Church of England. Way to set an example lol.

  • @Hattaru It was expected of Henry. He was also brought up as a Roman Catholic, which meant he could do what ever he wants, as long as he repents before he dies...

  • @Hattaru It was just the way things were back then. I'm not saying it's right, but it's how things were.

  • @Hattaru

    It was pretty common to take mistresses during the time period. It was not just started by Henry, but was practiced by the monarchs before him. Many take pleasure in commenting on the Tudor time period, because it's one of the most famous dynasties. It's kind of like a society. EVERYDAY he probably broke a commandment. Monarchs thought they had every right to, because they were in charge. It's just the way things were.

  • @Hattaru But in this time, it was common.

  • Thanks for uplaoding! Would you please uplosd some more Catherine clips from S1, I'd be really grateful as I'm really enjoying them, Thanks! xx
