Transmitting 9pm, Monday 20th April on HISTORY.
Inside The Body of Henry VIII takes the viewer on a journey into England's biggest monarch.
Medical experts, biographers and historians try to establish what caused the great physical and mental change in Henry's life. Did he suffer from syphilis? Or did he actually die of scurvy? Did he have diabetes, or was his favourite sport - jousting - to blame for his medical problems in later life?
Produced in April 2009 as a Special to mark the 500th anniversary of Henry VIII's accession to the throne.
