Yes, it’s another bloody special and we shall be having a look at what our olden days people got up to in the bedroom. If you’re curious, you may find out that we’re much gayer than you may have thought.

Mary will get her man – strapping big lad Charles Brandon. Henry will be annoyed, but money can make any king happy. Here’s a picture of a young Mary from the Spanish Princess.

We’ve had a little bit about Henry’s sister Mary, but let’s face it. She’s a hot princess and deserves and episode. So let’s re-examine her rather fun way of killing of the Frenchie king so she can get it on with Charles Brandon Duke of Suffolk, boofhead and Henry’s best mate.

And we have another new friend into the story. Enter Reginald Pole (Cardinal) but sadly our dear old Tom Wolsey (Cardinal) will be given the boot. But we will get to spend some time with the fun loving Paris theologians. So there is that. Here’s a picture of young Reg with old Cardinal Max Von Sydow.

We might manage to get through a whole 6 weeks of the life of King Henry and Queen Catharine. It’s the messy divorce trial and Henry will be a bit of a dick. But it’s about yet another character in this sorry little tale. The other, other Boleyn girl Jane Parker AKA Jane Boleyn AKA Lady Rochford. Here’s a picture of the Wolf Hall Jane Boleyn. Does she look a bit nasty? She’s supposed to.

In which we look to get all our fun loving characters to the same time – May 1529. That will allow the Legatine Court of Cardinals Wolsey and Campeggio to get underway and we can try for a divorce. Perhaps our men have underestimated Catherine of Aragon. Here’s a picture of Robert Shaw as Henry and Venessa Redgrave as Anne Boleyn from A Man for All Seasons.

We’ll have a look at how Princess Mary is coming along but it’s all about divorce for Henry. Or really Henry has decided that he was not married to Catherine at all. It’s all to do with Leviticus and Deuteronomy so nice and sensible. Here’s a Princess Mary from the TV series Wolf Hall.

Martin Luther is dead but the reformation will continue. This week we’ll be having a look at John Calvin and our protestants can copy the Catholics by burning heretics. Yes, our heretics now also have heretics.

Let’s open some of Henry’s letters to Anne for a bit of a read. And we can go to parliament which is always a hoot and a giggle. Tom Cromwell will be against foreign wars on the basis that they’re stupid and expensive. Well spotted Tom. Here’s Henry with Mary and Anne Boleyn.

We’re having problems working out the one is three and three is one thingy with some people wanting it just to be three and others wanting to be one. Martin decides that the magic trick with the bread is real before turning his attention to Muslims and Jews. Meanwhile, Munster is taken over by polygamist Anabaptists. Won’t end well for them as this picture from the German movie Konig der letzten Tage shows.
