<p>King Henry VIII is best known for his tempestuous marriages and his penchant for cutting off people’s heads. But where does fiction meet fact?</p> <p>In this special episode, Professor Suzannah Lipscomb is joined by a panel of experts to discuss Henry on screen and what those portrayals got right or wrong. Who gave the most convincing performance? Was it Damien Lewis in <em>Wolf Hall</em>, Robert Shaw in <em>A Man for All Seasons</em>, Jude Law in <em>Firebrand</em>, or Charles Laughton in <em>The Private Life of Henry VIII</em>?</p><p>Dr Joanne Paul, Jessie Childs and Alex von Tunzelmann join Suzannah to explore why this towering figure continues to fascinate us more than 500 years after he came to the throne.</p> <p><strong>More:</strong></p><p><a href="https://open.spotify.com/episode/5oDWFRrXdU391ahTegYGxQ" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>Thomas More on Film: The Historians' Verdict </strong></a></p><p><a href="https://open.spotify.com/episode/7thj5o3L81737FMa4uEn82" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>Mary Queen of Scots on Film: The Historians' Verdict </strong></a></p> <p>Presented by Professor Suzannah Lipscomb.
