They made these TV series so very well in those days.
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.Read full review...

Highly Quality BBC Drama from the 70's
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.Read full review...

A factually accurate drama in a true theatrical setting
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 tinselRead full review...

Excellent
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.Read full review...

The six wives of Henry VIII
It was good but not the one I should have ordered, my mistake.

Classic BBC Drama of the 1970s
I saw the original series when it was repeated in the early-70s but had forgotten the detail and intrigue. Fascinating series of plays showing their age now in terms of set design and effects but the costumes are magnificent and the acting superb.Read full review...

The six Wives o f Henry VIII
It's alright a bit slow and dated. The Tudors version is much better.
