In this episode, called Checkmate, we see events fly by after the excruciating wait. After years and years of waiting, Anne becomes Queen and gives birth ... to a healthy baby ... girl. Ugh.

Episode 014: Season Two Episode Four - The Act of Succession

Husband and wife watch The Tudors. He knows nothing about the 16th century. She has been podcasting about Renaissance England since 2009. In this episode by episode guide he'll ask her questions, and they'll discuss the stories behind the drama, looking at what really happened at the Tudor court. We think it's a fun way to make the 16th century more accessible, and any excuse to see more of Jonathan Rhys Meyers is a good thing. (She wrote that part). Hosted on Acast.
