Henry the eighth

If you could meet a historical figure, who would it be and why?

The Tudor era fascinates me, I’d love to meet Henry the eighth, to hear him, to see him and just to find out if he is exactly as he is portrayed in pretty much every book or programme I have ever viewed about him.

His wives fascinate me, their stories and their upbringings.

His subjects such as Wolsey and Cromwell also fascinate me, the whole Tudor period is just like one big soap opera, really gripping stuff.

Though if Henry’s anger is as bad as they have portrayed then maybe I’d like to meet him from a distance. Maybe a bit more than an axe swing distance.

Have a super day.

    1. That really would be the ultimate meeting. I don’t think I’d want to know my future, you kind of shape your future on how you act today, just carry on being a good person and your future will be good I’m sure.
