(How The Tudors Lost Their Heads: Anne Boleyn) Historie Historians Dan Snow and Professor Suzannah Lipscomb investigate the lives and deaths of some of Tudor Englands most fascinating figures, including Anne Boleyn, Mary, Queen of Scots, and Perkin Warbeck, who claimed to be one of the famed Princes in the Tower. Dan and Suzie seek clues in spectacular castles and palaces across Britain and Europe, gain rare access to archives, and reveal new evidence that helps expose the truth behind the executions. Were these iconic figures architects of their own downfall or casualties of ruthless political power plays? The series combines cinematic storytelling with cutting-edge research as we reassess some of the Tudor eras most notorious, controversial and misunderstood individuals. If you want to understand the Tudors, get to know who they executed - and why. Executed on charges of adultery and treason, Anne Boleyn is often remembered as the ‘harlot who seduced Henry VIII into annulling his first marriage and forcing his country into religious turmoil. By examining what really led to her execution in 1536, Professor Suzannah Lipscomb and Dan Snow reveal a far more complex reality. They discover Annes appeal to the king was as much intellectual as physical. No mere social climber, she was a moral reformer who sought to use her royal influence for public good. But Annes power evaporated as her relationship with chief minister Thomas Cromwell fractured and her pregnancies failed to deliver the male heir Henry demanded. Suzannah and Dan uncover evidence that the stunning charges against Anne were falsified; was she actually innocent? This is the story of Englands most misunderstood queen. MN 12 (United Kingdom)
