- May 1536, Henry hopes Anne Boleyn's beheading and marriage annulment will allow an anti-French alliance with the emperor. Eager for a 'renaissance', Henry can't even await the arrival of the reputed executioner from Calais to 'ask' Jane's father John Seymour for her hand. She asks him to reinstate princess Mary as heir. Charles Brandon enjoys fatherhood and tells Thomas Boleyn he may leave court, stripped of everything. Anne confesses haughtily but dies graciously.—KGF Vissers
- Anne Boleyn learns from the constable that she is to be executed by decapitation. Archbishop Cranmer also informs her that her marriage to the King has been declared invalid. As a result Princess Elizabeth is declared illegitimate, something that pleases Lady Mary, the King's eldest daughter who was also declared illegitimate. The late arrival of the executioner forces Anne's execution to be delayed one day, prolonging her agony. Sir Thomas Boleyn, Anne's father is released from prison but is banished from Court. Meanwhile, the King becomes engaged to Lady Jane Seymour. She asks the King to reinstate Lady Mary as the rightful heir. He laughs off the suggestion saying that it is their child who will become heir.—garykmcd
