There is a DRESSED TO KILL exhibit at the Tower of Lomdon going on right now and it includes armor (and other stuff I hope) from the various phases od Ed viii's life. I guess you get a really good idea of how big he was when you see it. I plan on seeing it in the next few days as I am in London for the next week. I'll shed a tear for Ann at the site of her beheading.

I hope they finally fatten him up. He was obese by the time of Jane Seymor.

Me too. He went to rehab between season 2 and 3, I guess it didn't take.

Poor JRM. I hope he gets help. I don't wanna seem him die. Or bloated and ugly.

Was TC's death so brutal or was that more creative license?

According to wikipedia he was beheaded on the same day of Henry's marriage to Catherine Howard. And..."After his execution, Cromwell's head was boiled and then set upon a spike on London Bridge, facing away from the City of London. "

Thoughts on whether Anne Boleyn's Hot Uncle Norfolk will make a return next season? (since he's Catherine Howard's Unc too)

I wonder if the actor was unavailable or too expensive. He was the one responsible for bringing Catherine Howard to Court, not Sir Francis and certainly not the Seymours. He played a bigger part in the Pilgrimage of Grace than Brandon did....

It is not historically accurate (timelines and gorgeous actors and whatnot) but it is compelling.

I saw a quote from the showrunner once where he said that Showtime didn't ask him to produce a documentary, but to make entertainment.

It is certainly entertaining.

In addition to dalliances with famous female consorts Catherine of Aragon and the infamous Anne Boleyn, the series delves into Henry's most notable political relationships, including those with philosopher Sir Thomas More, Cardinal Wolsey, head of the Catholic Church of England during its break...
