In this episode we talk about whether Henry really loved his daughter Mary, why Heather doesn't really think Thomas More was all that honorable, and sexuality as a fluid concept in 16th century England. So much to talk about, so little time! You can always learn more about us at http://www.WatchingTheTudors.com and I invite you to cehck out the other podcast I do, the Renaissance English History Podcast, to dive deeper into life in 16th century England. Also, we'd love it if you'd leave an itunes review. Seriously, it would make our day. Thanks!<hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.

Watching the Tudors Season 2 Episode 5

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.
