Dental Hygiene was more advanced in King Henry's time than it is today.

King Henry was not actually a tall, strapping, red-haired fellow, but a dainty little poof
Anne Boleyn really had blue eyes |

Yeah he was already fat with a festering leg wound by the time Anne Boleyn came around

What was this guy's deal anyways. He'd cut the heads off of chicks that wouldn't fuck him? That'd get you arrested these days.

Unless you used to play football at USC, Buffalo and San Francisco.

Can you imagine the incredible B.O. of an obese person who wore velvet every day and never showered? The festering leg wound probably improved his scent.

I believe the legal rap was that while the women would sleep with him, they also extended that favor to others as well

Poor Anne Boleyn. Framed for incest. It was nice of Henry to order the professional axeman though.

Don't learn anything merkyl.
1) they kill off his bastard son (by Bessie Blount) for dramatic effect. Much sadder when the kid is a tow headed toddler. The son was old enough to marry off in real life. 2) His older sister Margaret married the King of Scotland. There was no marriage to the King of Portugal. His younger sister Mary married the King of France, who was old and smelly as portrayed by the King of Portugal. Charles Brandon escorted Mary to France for the wedding and escorted Mary home after the old fart died. Brandon married Mary. By killing off Margaret there is no hope of exploring the Mary Queen of Scots story - Margaret's granddaughter. By eliminating Mary, there is no hope of exploring the Lady Jane Gray story - Mary's granddaughter. Fucking Showtime asswipes who call themselves 'writers'. That's just some of the crap that made me throw a shoe at the big screen. Fortunately I throw like a girl. |

I don't mind it when they change history to improve the art. Unfortunately, it's almost always to heighten crappy melodrama. Or for no reason at all.

JOHN ADAMS RUNS A HIGH PRICE PROSTITUTION RING. Gets caught by the Daily Bugle. Fortunately the news takes 10 years to spread around the colonies, and by that
time Adams' smear campaign against Jefferson has more impact.
