00:13

(medieval orchestra music) - (gags) Sigmund,

00:15

I don't have much longer.

00:17

Tell me, was I a good King?

00:18

- Ugh, you were okay.

00:20

- Will I be remembered

00:22

as the great warrior king who invaded France,

00:25

revolutionized English healthcare,

00:27

and developed great park lands?

00:29

- Um, probably not.

00:30

- 'Cause of the wife killings?

00:32

- 'Cause of the wife killings.

00:34

- (gags)

00:35

(takes bite)

00:37

Sigmund, how did I get here?

00:39

I still remember the good old days when I was a boy

00:42

with a heart full of fire

00:44

and Mummy would teach me. (dreamy harp music)

00:47

(whimsical clarinet music) - Okay, Henry,

00:47

this is a horse.

00:49

Can you say horse?

00:50

- Ho, ho, divorce!

00:53

- What, no.

00:54

Okay, let's try this one.

00:56

Can you say loaf of bread?

00:59

- Ll, off with her head!

01:01

- No, Henry, that's wrong!

01:03

You know what, last one.

01:04

Okay, can you say soap?

01:07

Soap!

01:08

- Sss, sss.

01:10

- Yes. That's it.

01:11

- I'm the supreme head of the church!

01:13

Screw the Pope!

01:15

- You know what?

01:16

You're my son and I love you,

01:17

but you're freaking weird, man.

01:19

(light orchestra music)

01:23

(upbeat music) - [Narrator] The year is 1491.

01:25

England has just come out of three decades

01:27

of civil war in which a bunch of Henrys, Edwards,

01:30

and one Richard had a little ding dong

01:31

over which Royal house should rule the round.

01:34

Finally, a Henry won, Henry VII, and he had a son.

01:37

(whimsical orchestra music) - What should we name him?

01:38

- My Royal lineage is full of Henrys,

01:41

a fine name, a vigorous name,

01:43

a tenacious name, a muscular name.

01:45

- How about Arthur?

01:46

- [Narrator] And so Arthur, Prince of Wales,

01:48

and next in line to the throne was born.

01:50

Five years later, Prince Henry was born,

01:52

but nobody cares about him.

01:53

He's not the heir, just a spare.

01:55

the King wanted to make an Alliance with Spain.

01:57

So one day, he said to his son, Arthur, "Hey, baby,

02:00

"you see that lady, baby?

02:02

"That's going to be your wife."

02:03

- But father, I'm not even three years old yet.

02:05

- Listen, there's something you have to understand.

02:07

You're my son,

02:09

but more than that, you're a political bargaining tool.

02:12

- But you love me, right?

02:14

- I love you as a political bargaining tool.

02:16

- Yay.

02:17

- Hey, pop.

02:18

- Who the heck are you?

02:19

- I've written you a poem.

02:20

- Listen here, tiny man, can't you see that I'm busy?

02:22

- But I'm your son.

02:23

- I have another son?

02:25

- [Narrator] as Arthur was in another palace being prepped

02:27

to become King, (medieval orchestra music)

02:28

Henry lived with his mother and two sisters at Eltham,

02:31

where he was being trained for a church career,

02:33

and not just that, Henry learnt languages.

02:35

He played sports.

02:36

He learned the recorder.

02:38

What a nerd.

02:39

Am I right?

02:40

Wrong, Henry was the coolest kid around.

02:42

(mellow jazz music)

02:43

- So I told my Latin teacher he could kissius my buttius.

02:47

(audience laughing)

02:49

Anyway, here's Wonderwall.

02:50

(crowd cheering)

02:51

(upbeat xylophone music) - Great scholars

02:52

and theologians from across Europe came to meet

02:55

and teach the young Prince Henry,

02:56

who by all accounts was a very enlightened, bright,

02:59

and charming young boy.

03:00

(crowd cheering) Everybody loved Henry,

03:02

and out of everything Henry was taught more than anything,

03:05

he came to adore and respect theology and Catholicism.

03:09

One of Henry's tutors was English poet Laureate,

03:12

John Skelton, who wrote a textbook for Henry

03:14

that we still have today.

03:15

In it, he wrote a number of important lessons

03:17

for the young Prince, such as, "Do not be mean,"

03:20

"loathe gluttony,"

03:21

and "Do not violate widows,"

03:23

important lessons for any nine-year-old boy.

03:26

(medieval orchestra music) Around this time,

03:27

Henry's older brother, Arthur,

03:28

now 15-years-old, was married to Catherine of Aragon

03:31

sealing the union between England and Spain,

03:33

(crowd cheers)

03:34

and then he died. (crowd groans)

03:36

(sad organ music) - Oh, my alliance with Spain.

03:38

My poor, poor alliance with Spain.

03:41

- And your son, sire?

03:42

- Oh yes, of course, my son,

03:44

but mostly my alliance with Spain.

03:47

- Hey, pop.

03:47

- Who the heck are you?

03:49

Oh yeah!

03:50

(whimsical orchestra music) - And just like that,

03:51

an unprepared Prince Henry was now the new heir

03:54

to the throne.

03:54

And how about that alliance with Spain?

03:56

Well, the solution was simple.

03:58

- Hey, Boy, see that full grown woman over there?

04:01

That's gonna be your wife.

04:03

- What, my brother's widow?

04:04

- Yes.

04:05

- You're a fricking weirdo, man.

04:07

- [Narrator] Now, in the Bible,

04:08

there's a verse that says marrying your brother's widow,

04:10

that's a big no-no.

04:11

So the King needed to convince the Pope

04:14

and get his special permission.

04:16

- Hey, can I please have my son marry his brother's widow?

04:18

- Eh, sure, why not?

04:20

- [Narrator] And so it was.

04:21

Henry's life was turned on its head

04:23

as he was moved to the Royal court

04:24

next in line to the throne,

04:26

but tragedy struck when just a few months later,

04:29

his mother with whom he was very close,

04:31

suddenly died in childbirth.

04:32

The loss of his mother almost certainly had a big effect

04:35

on the young boy.

04:37

(inquisitive orchestra music) In his older years,

04:38

King Henry VII went on a bit of a paranoid trip.

04:41

As was normal for a King at the time,

04:42

Henry VII had had to quell a number of rebellions,

04:45

and as he aged, he became ever more suspicious

04:48

of the nobility around him.

04:49

To keep them in check, he began levying huge ruinous fines

04:52

left, right, and center.

04:54

Dukes, Bishops, Barons, even his own mother,
