king with six queens

So far, I have watched three films and TV series with Henry VIII.

"Henry VIII" is a typical historical film.

The male protagonist is a fat and ugly old man.

The king of "The Tudors"

is a handsome boy. Several queens, although not the most beautiful, but the clothes are still in place.

The king of "Magpie Occupying the Dove's Nest"

has nothing to do except for bed scenes.

However, I still prefer this one.

Regardless of its authenticity, TV shows are always more delicate.

Kind of like Henry VIII's gossip roundup.

As the British royal family said, "The royal family cannot do without the paparazzi, and the paparazzi cannot do without the royal family."

The Tudors quotes

  • Cardinal Thomas Wolsey: Lady Anne, what are you doing here?

    Anne Boleyn: I have an audience with His Majesty.

    Cardinal Thomas Wolsey: [amused] What would a silly girl like you have to say to a king?

  • Queen Katherine: I am so glad to see you. It is often lonely here.

    Charles V: Lonely?

    Queen Katherine: Things are not well between us. His Majesty and I.

    Charles V: But... I saw with my own eyes how attentive he is to you. He looks at you with such devotion, it seems. With such love.

    Queen Katherine: I fear that is for your benefit. Henry is a good masquer. I think sometimes that he will ask me for a divorce.

    Charles V: A divorce? No, that's impossible.

    Queen Katherine: [Glances towards Henry as he crosses paths with Anne Boleyn once more] Is it?
