@ligreekguy Because, Norfolk in this movie is portrayed by Mark Strong who is actually and in fact a virile looking young stud.

9:15 Okay, really? Wouldn't the classy way to ask that be "Is she of child bearing age?" Cause . . .~Shutter~ NASTY!!! Mark, oh mark, oh mark . . . I love you, but EWE!!! On so many counts.

I do not like the way Thomas Howard observes Kathrine....as if she is Cattle or something! But I guess that's the way women were treated back then....

@KDVx3 if I had to have my head hacked off by a trembling 16 year old, I would try to talk him through it too!!!

@ligreekguy You are right that Mark Strong is too young to portray Thomas Howard, 3rd Duke of Norfolk but Christopher Eccleston was not too young to portray Thomas Howard, 4th Duke of Norfolk who was the 3rd Dukes grandson and was executed at the age of 36.

It'd be wierd comforting your executioner, wouldn't it?
Like walking the lethal injection doctor through the injection...

@ligreekguy Yeah, Norfolk is pretty hot in this, and in The Tudors. And to me he was the worst one; sacrificing two nieces like that and all his plotting and he was the only one to die in peace how do you like that...

@MusicalMaiden92 Yeah it took him at least two swings to do the job.
Anne of Cleves was certainly not overweight, and was not as plain as this movie depicts her. She simply was not petite in the manner that Henry preferred his wives, and lacked any skill in the areas of foreign languages, music and dancing. And why is Norfolk, as he was also depicted in the movie Elizabeth with Cate Blanchett, this virile looking young stud? In actuality, he was nearly 70 years old at the time of Henry's marriage to Anne of Cleves!

The tudors series portray the excutioner as being drunk and older.
