Description
All 38 episodes of the Emmy Award-nominated historical drama series
focusing on the life and romances of the young King Henry VIII
Jonathan Rhys Meyers. Set in Renaissance Britain during the early
part of Henry's reign, the series portrays the passionate and
irascible king, his Spanish Queen Catherine Maria Doyle Kennedy,
his ministers Sir Thomas More Jeremy Northam and Cardinal Wolsey
Sam Neil, and a host of would-be mistresses and wives. As bold
and passionate about his country as he is about his women, Henry's
obsession with ensuring his legacy leads to the beheading of both
friends and foes, the waging of wars and a challenge to the
Catholic Church - events that forever changed the face of the
British Empire.
