Mind your head! As this time out we travel back to the 16th century in search of scandal, salaciousness and separations in England's Tudor court. We all know the rhyme about the six wives of Henry VIII, but how much do we really know about the life and times of perhaps the most infamous wife of them all - Anne Boleyn? With rumours persisting to this day of a rise from humble backgrounds to the highest seat in the land, many still believe the Boleyn family to be stop-at-nothing opportunists with their eyes firmly fixed on the prize. But does that tell the whole story? Philippa Gregory's 2001 novel would beg to differ as she chose to set her narrative around a lesser known member of this aspiring family. Did Mary Boleyn give birth to Henry's son? Was Anne accused of treason and incest? And did the King really take a tumble from a horse?! Join us to find out on That's Not How It Went Down!
