Just good old fashioned historical drama of the kind they used to do so well in those days. No gimmicks, nothing OTT, no irritating music playing over speech or jazzy graphics or whatever it is they use these days on the box. You can learn a lot from watching this. Five stars fro me and look forward to watching it all again some day.

If you are into history, especially the Tudors then Henry VIII in my opinion is the worst of them all. A truly awful tyrant but he did keep us out of wars and did much to help modernise the country, making way for the industrial revolution 200 years later. Although dated it still holds its own with a fine script and good acting by all. Well worth watching.

Top actors of their day performing an epic story in the language used at that time in history. I bought this for the acting and the realism. It is not an action packed Hollywood firework display but a factually accurate drama in a true theatrical setting where talent outshines the tinsel

An excellent series from the 1970s before history started to be rewritten to suit the pc brigade. Keith Michell played the king to perfection. The boxset arrived on time and was well wrapped. Thank you.

It was good but not the one I should have ordered, my mistake.
