Henry VIII clip

[ixonixas]

Where is the fucking name of this movie/documentary????

[jlpfpizarro]

Sean Bean RULZ

[IamSamuelK]

that went well lol

[vboolka1084]

he ressembles the real king!

[MJthebest87]

This is one of the best films I have ever seen. Helena Bonham Carter and Ray Winstone are pefect as Anne Boleyn and Henry VIII.

[UndeadTurk]

Ray Winstone is the best Henry VIII.

[coolmamac]

I've never seen this version. I would like to see this series. On youtube?

[Fenner1976]

@coolmamac Yes I think the entire version of this is on "laura265" channel. This was shown as a two-parter on TV. Not sure if this is on BluRay, but it's available as a 2-disc DVD.

[ADDodger]

@coolmamac I think it's a movie

[ADDodger]

@coolmamac I spoke too soon, 2-part series.

[Fenner1976]

This was a very good adaptation I thought. It's probably one which shows the much darker side of Henry Tudor. Casting Ray Winstone was a good choice for this. He certainly displays physical anger like no other actor I've seen in a Henry film. This scene between Henry and Robert Aske was pretty dramatic between the exchange of words here. With this Henry, it's all about absolute power, which really comes through, but he later regrets it all on his death-bed.

[JuanMacready]

Lol, Henry VIII with a Cockney accent.

[VladimirVLD]

BEOWULF vs. BOROMIR!

[charlieiscool1000]

Sean bean doing his yorkishire accent

[MRsupperosdale1]

What a sick man Henry 8 was I still can’t believe that England today still look up to him as the great’ King that stood up to Rome and gave England the faith they wanted When in reality he was a tyrant that broke away from Rome so that he could plunder the wealth from the church and spent it on himself and a few selected nobles killing many hundreds of his devoted countrymen that wouldn’t become Protestant married six times killing many of them when they did not give him a son.

[JuanMacready]

@MRsupperosdale1 At least he conquered Ireland and launched the most violent invasion Scotland had ever seen.

[ThePennyPincher]

@MRsupperosdale1 My parents moved from England after the Second World War. I studied the history of England, the nobles, the monarchy, the royal hangers-on. The British have a failing, degenerate, sink-hole of an Empire exactly because of the stinking, cankerous, syphillitic scum like Henry the VIII, and all the royal ilk that came before and after him. Look at the great empire now; on it's knees, with one foot in the grave.

[zimnaya]

I don't understand why Henry VIII has a cockney accent. Sean Bean is altogether more convincing: there is passion and sorrow in his voice here.

[MrSmi1992]

Celebration81 we were and still are one of the most amazing countries in the world, you really need to go to school because your government has obviously failed you in the history and writing department.

[MrSmi1992]

A weak and boring country? You really need to get history lessons. England was one of the most powerful countries in the world!

[celebration81]

medieval england was a weak & boring country.

[distant2sun]

@celebration81 Yeah, of course- that's why England won so many wars, grew in wealth and culture, was ruled by powerful men and women. Oh, and by the way- Henry VIII's period isn't even Medieval, it's early modern ;) Get an English lesson.

[celebration81]

@distant2sun It doesn't change the fact. Medieval Hungarian kingdom was more powerful than medieval england. (Bigger territory the all british isles together 2X more royal inland revenues, larger population, at least 6-8-x bigger filed armies)

[distant2sun]

@celebration81 But what you're saying is that there was a stronger country, yes, but that doesn't make TUDOR England terrible. There may have been other countries with a better army, or more people (by the way, a higher population isn't always a signal of greatness), but Tudor England was prosperous and a great country.

[00G000]

@celebration81 You are full of shit!

I don´t think that anybody here around knows shit about your gloroius Hungary,guess why,it´s fucking boring!

[celebration81]

@00G000 Again, England was not a relevant country during medieval age. Its population was little, the inland revenue (the budget) of your kings were low. The medieval english armies were little.

[00G000]

@celebration81 That doesn´t change the fact that specially under Henry VIII reign,the most interesting things happend and they happend in England.Protestantism,an emerging Superpower due to new developements in technology (just consider the two big ships Henry build (Great Harry and Mary Rose) and the general shift of power away from southern countries.

No,you are dead wrong,England at that time, was where the seed was layed for their later dominance.

Hungary became Austria´s Vasal...

[celebration81]

@00G000 England wasn't superpower until the end of 18.th century. Hungary wasn't vassal of Austria. Read about personal union in English wikipedia. And read the Hungary article in English wikipedia.

[00G000]

@celebration81 A so?You do know,that in 1580,the beat the Spanish Armada,installing English supremacy over the oceans.I didn´t hear of Hungarian colonies in the new world either...must have overread them....

Wake up!It´s good to be patriotic but there is a level of self-deception you definitely reached.

I am German and I can see that simple fact,why can´t you?And besides,Hungary became a vassal of Austria...so,how powerful must have been it´s position?

[celebration81]

@00G000 @00G000 The colonisation didn't mean power.Little countries could colonise backward big countries. There wwasn't English naval supremacy in the 16-17th. centuries. It started around in late 17th century. Read the English Britannica encyclopedia.

[celebration81]

@00G000 Hungary have more serious enemies, Holy Roman Empire (which was super power in the 10-13th century. And the Byzantine Empire. We could beat them. And the Turks. MEdieval Hungary could stant 100,000 men. Remember Crusades: Richard the L.Hearted had only 15,000 men, Andrew II of Hungary had 31,000 men trong army in the holy land

[celebration81]

@00G000 Please give a historical source which mentions that Hungary was vassal of Austria.

[Metalistu94Vlad]

@celebration81  they actulay formed the Austro-Hungarian Empire , with a double monarchy

[bamagreycoat]

Can we watch the entire pbs movie on YouTube?

[javierpe9103]

ray is the best henry

[tontsa911]

Eddard Stark :)

[celebration81]

Medieval England was a little country with little inland revenues. Medieval Hungary was stronger country with larger populaTION territory and inland revenues.

[JRAV03DJE]

First fo all it was'nt medieval England back then it was TUDOR ENGLAND.

Second of all it may have been a small country but it was a very wealthy country and not long after Henry VIII reign had a MASSIVE and POWERFULL Navy and army and in the height of its power owned 1/4 of the world known as the BRITISH EMPIRE so I think England has left a bigger foot print on the world than Hungary ever could so maybe before you run down England you shuld go study our history a little better.

[celebration81]

england become important contry in the early 17 century. Medieval england was not important. Little armies little inland revenues. Just look hungary article in english wikipedia

[JRAV03DJE]

Yes it was important in TUDOR times. We broke away from the Catholic Church and where at war with France and many other nations. Besides I dont care about Hungary's history. If I did I would be on a Utube video about the history of Hungary!!

Im English and proud of my history. I just think you jealous of English history.

[celebration81]

whithout relevant armies and taxes , your england was not important country

[JRAV03DJE]

God you are really starting to piss me off.

I can tolerate arogant people if they have the inteligence to back it up but I cannot tolreate dumb arogant people like you.

We pretty much changed the face of Europe. You saying in one of your earlier comments that England wasnt an important country until the early 17th century is a load of shit.

If you knew our history which clearly you dont you would know that during the reign of Queen Elizabeth I we basically destroyed the Spanish Armarda.

[KytesofKaos]

cool story, bro.

[ollierat9]

IMO Ray's Henry is the best. I think it was a clever move to cast an actor who is so well known for gangster roles. It brought out the fact that Henry was in all effects a mob boss.

[ajastelemon]

Also, did anyone notice the allusion to Braveheart? The music when Aske first appears is in part taken from the scene in which Gibson rides into town before butchering the garrison.

[ajastelemon]

Though exciting, this scene is quite faulty. Robert Aske was not a veteran but a London lawyer without any military experience; he was also a moderate man and attempted to prevent a subsequent Catholic rising. Furthermore, no royal audience would have taken place in this manner, and Aske would have been imprisoned and executed had he addressed the king as Sean Bean does.

[ImperialGuard9001]

Robert should just have cutt of the head of fat devil

[4eSaintSeiya]

wow sean is really fascinating in this film!! well in true....sean is always wonderful!!!! <3<3<3<3<3

[MrKAltazin]

While this is a very tense and well acted scene, it never took place. Aske and Henry did meet, but I dare say Aske would not have had the nerve to talk to his king in this way.

[in4freedom]

One of the best scenes in the movie, the emotional tension expressed defines the state of the country at that time.

[12from12]

this movie had nothing to do with actual history

[victorya8919]

this looks much better then The Tudors

[AWickedMind]

Ray Winston and Sean Bean are both incredibly hot :)

[victorya8919]

yes they're very hot :D

[angeldream2]

I Love Sean Bean, great name, great actor and he played this part FANTASTICLY !!!!

[ilovelinkinp]

Sorry to say because I absolutely love Jonathan Rhys Meyers are an actor, but I much prefer Ray Winstone as Henry VIII, think he fits the persona better...but The Tudors is a well acted, entertaining series, no argument there...

[SaxGurl]

Ray Winstone and Sid Mitchell are definitly the two best Henry VIIIs...but Jonathan Rhys Meyers is the best looking :)

[ilovelinkinp]

Agreed...he make Henry VIII sexy, which I doubt he was of course, but WHO CARES!!!!!

[Karkaroff26]

Cool clip and I thought the acting between Sean Bean and Ray Winstone to be quite good. Didn't Henry break his promises later on to Robert Aske? It's been a while since I have seen the series.

[anthlocal]

Aside from all the politics, which may I remind people was over 500 years ago, times change and all that, this is a bloody brilliant show, and Sean and Ray are fantastic in their roles. Probably one of the best Sean has ever done, excepting Sharpe.

[ClarissaDalllo]

Even if that's not what happened, I admire both of them! Ray Winstone and Sean Bean are great actors! And this role is one of Sean's best roles!!

[natt2222]

thanks shirotaka92 (:

[IamSnickers]

Wha... thats not what happened, didn't Henry VIII keep the Wealth? I knew he bladed Thomas Cromwell but I'm pretty sure that's not how it went down

[natt2222]

what movie is this called?

[Shirotaka92]

Its a TV series called Henry VIII

I think you can buy it off Amazon or something.

[KieEFCmcc]

ray winstone looks just like herny viii and i can amagine henry viii having not a completey gueens english accent and having a little bit of a cockney one

[xPinkBunny]

This is such a brilliant film. I first saw it on ITV1 when it premiered in 2005. And this weekend it was shown on ITV3. Ray Winstone and Helena Bonham Carter are perfect in the roles of Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn. The Tudors are so fascinating, it would be great to see more films and documentaries about them. I will definitly be getting this is DVD.

[username12009]

Sorry to be pedantic but it was first on iTV in autumn 2003.

[lindoriel70]

Wow Sean Bean is such a good actor...

[DiamondJedi]

For a second there I thought Sean Bean was the king. It would have been better. Who was that other guy playing the king?

[bornasnoob]

i sae the whole movie yesterday its awsome and sad i guess..... lol im studying him o_0

[shirla26]

Er - 'University English??' wasn't around in Tudor times; and no one can be 100% sure of their pronunciation in those days.

[juggles20007]

Many people want to know who Robert Aske is. He led The Pilgrimage Of Grace against Henry viii. The man being taken away is cromwell

[Omniverse77]

Why is Henry speaking in hooligan English? He should be speaking in proper university english.

He doesn't even look royal.

[ushma28]

I learnt about the Tudors in '2007'. i also learnt about the Spanish armada and how England attacked spain. England and spain wera enemies somehow......I love learning about the TUDORS!!!!!!!!!!!! I am 8 years old and my name is Shivani and I'm in year 4.

[mocev]

Spain and England were enemies primarily due to Henry VIII refusing to acknowledge the Roman Catholic church. He then went and destroyed all the monasteries, killed many of the monks, stole all their money, gave the land to his friends and persecuted anybody else who had Catholic beliefs. It was (shock and horror) a war caused by religion.

[vakil28]

Thanks for the very good information.

[username12009]

That is not information, it is opinion, the Dissolution of the Monastries was perfectly logical, and the Catholic Church deserved to be stripped of its' land because it had lost its' way and had become an oppressive business rather than a church.

[username12009]

Shame all your info is incorrect, Spain wanted to conquer England not because of the Dissolution of the Monastries, but because in the reign of Elizabeth she was left the only Protestant monarch in Europe, and Philip II was a fanatic who insisted on the dominance of the Roman religion and thus the dominance of Spain in England.

[mocev]

You're quite right - although I never said the war was due to the DotM. I implied it was because of the difference in religion (Protestant vs Catholic). I added the monastery bit to force the point. Maybe I could have worded it better.

I'm not sure where you're going with the Elizabeth thing though. We're talking about Henry. (Original question is a few pages back).

Whilst the DotM may have been logical, surely you'd admit it was antagonistic to anybody of the Catholic faith?

[username12009]

Where I am going with the Elizabeth thing is that Spain was not an official enemy throughout the reign Henry VIII. Henry played Spain & France concurrently. It was only during the reign of Elizabeth that Spain became an official, due to both countries considering each other to following the 'wrong' religion.

[vakil28]

Thanks 4 d information. u know better than me.

[ushma28]

I learnt about the Tudors in '2007'. i also learnt about the Spanish armada and how England attacked spain. England and spain wera enemies somehow......I love learning about the TUDORS!!!!!!!!!!!! I am 8 years old and my name is Shivani and I'm in year 4.

[54spiritedwill54]

very nice  :) love it....

[LittleDrinkies]

Henry and Robert talk of when they were in a battle when they were younger. The only battle i remember henry V111 in was the battle of the spurs at Guineggate, france. That is close to where calais is today. But that battle was in 1513. Which would of made Robert 13 years old. And there is nothing on wiki about Robert been in the English army.

[RenegadeSparrow]

I've no idea of the battles Henry VIII was in, but you're really expecting a drama to be hitorically accurate to every last detail? Don't take me wrong, it's a great drama... :D But surely that would be expecting a bit much?

[BettyBoopy123]

I have the DVD if this it's amazing

[miahsons1]

WATCHED THIS AT SCHOOL MAN.....:P

[irshgrl500]

The man being led away is infact Cromwell but the scene has been "staged" as a ploy to dupe Aske. Aske and his Rebels were causing Henry a great deal of problems, and Henry needed to get Aske to "back down". Henry did not mean a word he said to Aske, during this negotiation. He was a monster!

[irshgrl500]

Sorry-BARGAINING. Aske is also attempting to bargain with Henry to cease in taking down the Churches, and killing Clergy Men and Women, in exchange to put down his arms, and no longer lead the York Rebellion against Henry.

[irshgrl500]

The Scene is with Yorkshire Rebel, "Robert Aske" and he is bargaing w/Henry for safe passage and return to York (eventually, he was convicted and executed for High Treason). During the Reformation, the North Provinces, were full of Roman Catholics who did want to accede to Henry's wishes, and recognize him as Head of the Church.

[ShinigamiTiger99]

hey may u please upload this whole movie PLEASE

[SpikeJonze]

My history is a little fuzzy....

What was happening in this scene?

Was that Thomas Moore who was getting carried away?

[zenmenace]

No, I don't think that was supposed to be Sir Thomas Moore, since he never upheld Henry VIII in his "forced conversion" of England. He certainly would not have taken part in the murder of monks and the looting of church property since he was executed for being a devout Catholic. On the other hand, I am sure that Sen Bean's character is Cromwell...

[eekeeley]

Sean Bean is not Cromwell, Cromwell was a protestant who arranged for Anne of Cleves to marry the king (which got him killed) and was earlier allied with Anne Boleyn. Casting says he's Robert Aske, who I don't know who that is. The removed person may actually be supposed to be Cromwell, he appears to be wearing the chancellor's necklace.

[zenmenace]

Thanks for the clarification

[meb28]

I like watching Sean Bean in almost anything he does.

[justlooking213]

I like this mini-series better than the Mary Queen of Scots one they did.

[kristianseo]

this is better than tudors

[yard90]

Aske = Leader of the "Pilgrimage of Grace" ?

[Hannig]

yes he was

[EnglandRugby]

2003

[Heroesjunkie23]

When was this made?

[greenlady13]

Sean is hott. lol.

[harry1hatter]

This is absolutely bollocks, i cant believe you think it's good. It didn't even happen like this, Robert Aske was a lawyer and didn't speak with the king till after a truce had been called, what a load of absolutely shit.

[ZalulaGundam]

wht r u talking about this was so do u know that directors like to alter things a bit in movies. Stupid

[lynzy663]

o i got chills

[sharpeangel]

This was amazing and I am fighting the urge to just go run and by the DVD this instant! LOL

[blackkirara99]

hey can u get the whole movie I want 2 watch it on here please

[Brianboro88]

Ray Winstone as Henry VIII,awesome,just awesome.& the performance between him & Sean Bean's Robert Aske is electrifying!

[rushysgirl]

Both AMAZING actors!!!

[njbd]

Both these men give such compelling performances in this clip that I actually got chill bumps. Both very strong. Thanks for sharing!!

[grailmaiden]

I love this scene, one of my favorites of Sean's work, the menacing yet cool tone of his voice, Sean speaks in a low growl, ultra sexy and such a powerful, spellbinding performance! Colleen in California

[kincar]

Very very nice Frosty! Thanks so much :)

[svirginiak]
