00:00:12,040 --> 00:00:14,800
So this really is the reason
you've come?

3
00:00:15,800 --> 00:00:17,280
Well...

4
00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:23,040
..very well.

00:00:24,280 --> 00:00:26,040
Wolsey's daughter.

00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:42,040
It's my religion, I think,
that you do not like.

7
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:45,280
I love the Gospel.

8
00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:49,000
I follow it. I always will.

My father understood everything.

10
00:00:52,520 --> 00:00:54,600
He understood you betrayed him.

11
00:00:56,280 --> 00:00:58,920
Pardon me, but if you have
this fixed opinion

12
00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:04,000
and you hold on to it regardless of
evidence or regardless of reason,

13
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:06,880
how am I to oppose it?
<font color="

14
00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:09,040
I would know you were a perjurer.

15
00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:13,040
I have been told by those I trust...

16
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:18,880
..there is no faith or truth
in Cromwell.

What's your business here?
Where are you from?

20
00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:47,520
<font color="
I've come to tell Lord Cromwell.

21
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:50,520
You hold here... How did these men
get inside the gate?

22
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:53,280
They say there's trouble, sir.
Lincolnshire is up.

23
00:01:53,280 --> 00:01:54,840
What trouble?

24
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:56,680
It started in Louth, sir.

00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:58,440
<font color="

26
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:02,320
They've attacked Bishop Langland's

Is it true, then? The King's dead?

28
00:02:07,280 --> 00:02:09,040
Who says so?

29
00:02:09,040 --> 00:02:10,840
All the east are saying it.

30
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:12,640
Said he died at midsummer.

31
00:02:12,640 --> 00:02:14,920
Midsummer? Who rules, then?

you can kneel and beg his pardon.

35
00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:26,760
What did they say
about this Cromwell?

36
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:30,760
They say he means to pull down
the parish churches,

37
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:34,840
<font color="
to fire on the poor folk.

38
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:36,680
He's a devil.

39
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:39,280
He wants the King's daughter
for himself.

40
00:02:40,520 --> 00:02:42,280
They want his head.

41
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:45,920
The rebels demand that the Lady Mary

Shouldn't we secure her person?
What do you advise? Chaining her up?

44
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:54,360
Keep a watch on her. She is watched.

45
00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:56,240
Poor men don't rise without leaders.

46
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:57,760
Landowners are behind this.

Well, gentlemen,
the news is poor hearing.

50
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:20,680
I would incline to mercy
if this brawl were to end now.

51
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:23,520
I'd counsel you against leniency.

52
00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:26,960
If this should spread to Yorkshire
and north to the border...

No. Keep Norfolk away from me.

00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:41,480
Sadler, send to Greenwich
for my armour.

57
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:44,040
No, no. Sire, do not risk
your sacred person.

<font color="
I am dead, what choice do I have?

59
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:50,520
Lord Cromwell's head
is their chief demand.

60
00:03:51,520 --> 00:03:56,360
They believe My Lord has practised
some device or sorcery on the King,

61
00:03:56,360 --> 00:03:58,840
as they claim the Cardinal
did before him.

And, by God, I am offended, too!

65
00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:11,920
I take it ill to be instructed
by the folk of Lincolnshire,

66
00:04:11,920 --> 00:04:14,840
one of the most brute

00:04:22,040 --> 00:04:23,760
Will these rebels do it?

Colin Clump and Peter Pisspiddle

and old Grandpa Gaphead
and his goat?!

00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:31,760

If I say Cromwell is a lord,

I'm only in London to receive my

North, east -
I will go where the King commands.

I have 600 armed and ready to ride.

I have five cannon -
five, and they are all mine.

95
00:06:02,280 --> 00:06:05,640
And I can whistle up another 1,600
men in short order. No, My Lord.

It's the King's pleasure...

I'm talking to Cromwell,
who has been to war,

which is more than you have, sir.

100
00:06:22,280 --> 00:06:23,680
It is the King's pleasure,

101
00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:25,920
as Mr Wriothesley here
hoped to explain,

103
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:32,680
that you repair to your own country,
there to ensure quietness...

There are no rebels in my country!

Me, of the best blood

I will ride to Hampton Court and
meet my sovereign face-to-face...

I wouldn't... ..for I no doubt

Me! Thomas Howard!

There is another matter, My Lord.

I have a letter from your wife,
the Duchess.

If you set your wife aside,
you could at least pension her off.

She's suffered enough already,
don't you think, at your hands?

In the north parts...

122
00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:57,040

In their view,

128
00:08:14,920 --> 00:08:18,200

Could it fall?

140
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:48,120
You could knock the city walls down

Your man, Bellowe. John Bellowe?

Yeah.

149

They blinded him,
then they skinned a bull

152
00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:21,120
and they sewed him into the hide.

153
00:10:22,520 --> 00:10:24,520
They set the dogs on him.

00:10:33,760 --> 00:10:35,840
All this rain,

155
00:10:35,840 --> 00:10:38,840
you'll be lucky to get
these cannon north of Enfield

I don't agree.
Excuse me.

I am told you have put
the Duke of Norfolk in a fury.

You know, he thinks this affair

The rebels demand that "vile blood"

That's your blood, I imagine.

If your master intends to
send aid to the rebels,

None, unless he's been given
bad advice by someone.

00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:19,280
If your master subverts my king
in his own country,

178
00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:21,280
<font color="

179
00:12:21,280 --> 00:12:23,760
We will unite with
the princes of Germany,

180
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:26,520
who are your master's subjects,
or so he believes.

181
00:12:26,520 --> 00:12:28,280
HE LAUGHS NERVOUSLY

182
00:12:29,280 --> 00:12:32,080
FAINT CHATTER

183
00:12:36,280 --> 00:12:39,760
So I hear. It's a shame he
doesn't have more patience.

184
00:12:41,160 --> 00:12:43,040
<font color="

185
00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:45,520
Chancellor of Augmentations.

186
00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:47,680
Highness.

187
00:12:48,680 --> 00:12:52,040
Why not ask the King
to fetch Lady Mary here?

188
00:12:52,040 --> 00:12:55,520
Oh, yes, that'll cheer us up.

189
00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:58,280
She's famous for her japes.

190
00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:58,280
LAUGHTER

191
00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:02,040
Lady Mary's health might improve
<font color="

192
00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:04,600
Or perhaps it is because
if Mary is here with us,

193
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:06,600
she cannot be taken by the rebels.

194
00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:08,920
Or, for that matter,
she resort to them.

195
00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:12,240
I would like her company.

196
00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:15,840
I could ask the King, but, erm...

197
00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:19,680
..he is displeased with me
<font color="

198
00:13:20,680 --> 00:13:22,200
With child.

199
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:32,040
WHISPERED: It's a way
to gain favour.

200
00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:34,760
She has been very kind as well.

201
00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:50,040
Lady Rochford,
could you stand off, please?

202
00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:56,320
No, further off,
with the other ladies.

203
00:13:57,320 --> 00:13:58,920
<font color="

204
00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:07,120
This is of great antiquity.

205
00:14:07,120 --> 00:14:09,520
The King gave it to me.

206
00:14:10,520 --> 00:14:12,520
He says it is Roman.

207
00:14:12,520 --> 00:14:14,040
Huh.

208
00:14:14,040 --> 00:14:15,840
It's possible.

209
00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:23,920
The King tells me his dreams.

210
00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:27,680
What dreams?

211
00:14:31,280 --> 00:14:33,360
Sometimes, when he has, erm...

212
00:14:34,760 --> 00:14:36,760
..you know, visited me...

213
00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:42,760
<font color="
then wakes because of his dreams.

214
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:48,280
He calls out,
"My fault! My fault!"

215
00:14:48,280 --> 00:14:51,040
He says his late brother
appears to him...

216
00:14:52,760 --> 00:14:55,520
..to reproach him
for the unrest in his kingdom

217
00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:57,520
and the distress of his people.

218
00:15:01,280 --> 00:15:06,080
<font color="
before, Your Grace, in his dreams.

219
00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:11,040
Perhaps...perhaps all princes...

220
00:15:12,760 --> 00:15:16,040
..are troubled by their conscience
in such a way

221
00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:18,040
in the late hours.

222
00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:26,760
I, too, am troubled
by the distress of the people.

223
00:15:31,280 --> 00:15:33,280
<font color="

224
00:15:33,280 --> 00:15:36,480
tell them I wanted to show you
the glass and know about the Romans.

225
00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:48,560
Sir.

226
00:15:48,560 --> 00:15:50,280
Join us, Crumb!

227
00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:54,040
We have a name
for the leader of the rebels.

228
00:15:54,040 --> 00:15:56,040
A one-eyed lawyer called Aske.

229
00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:58,040
Ash? Robert Ash?

230
00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:01,920
<font color="
To nod to at Gray's Inn.

231
00:16:01,920 --> 00:16:04,520
He used to come down
to do business

232
00:16:04,520 --> 00:16:06,280
for the Percys.

233
00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:21,240
Will you hear me, sir?

234
00:16:23,200 --> 00:16:25,840
Please to bring the Lady Mary
back to Court...

235
00:16:26,840 --> 00:16:31,520
..that I may have comfort in her
<font color="

236
00:16:31,520 --> 00:16:33,440
Are you lonely, sweetheart?

237
00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:35,120
Well, of course.

238
00:16:35,120 --> 00:16:38,520
Of course we can have her,
if it will make you merry.

239
00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:42,040
My Lord Privy Seal... Sir, my heart
is moved by the divisions that arise

240
00:16:42,040 --> 00:16:44,560
between your subjects
<font color="

241
00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:47,520
I am only a woman,

242
00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:51,040
I do not presume to be wiser
than Your Majesty, but

243
00:16:51,040 --> 00:16:54,960
my heart misgives when honourable
and devout customs are left off.

244
00:16:54,960 --> 00:16:56,840
And what customs? Nan.

245
00:16:56,840 --> 00:16:58,520
Your Grace.

246
00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:02,720
<font color="

247
00:17:02,720 --> 00:17:06,280
They want statues
they've known all their lives,

248
00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:08,520
and blessed candles and holy days.

249
00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:10,440
Your grace... Let her be.

250
00:17:11,440 --> 00:17:13,360
She must be instructed.

251
00:17:13,360 --> 00:17:17,760
Madam, what you fail to grasp
is that the Bishop of Rome

252
00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:21,840
<font color="
out to conquer, if he can.

253
00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:25,040
I will have no alien interfere
with my rule,

254
00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:29,120
and I will allow no traitor to
shelter behind the cross of Christ.

255
00:17:29,120 --> 00:17:32,520
They would still pray for the King
if they could pray for the Pope too.

256
00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:36,520
<font color="
can be no double jurisdiction.

257
00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:40,120
Either the King rules, or the Pope.

258
00:17:40,120 --> 00:17:43,520
Her grace will withdraw. They are
too much burdened with taxes.

259
00:17:43,520 --> 00:17:46,440
My Lord, take care of your thoughts
as well as your deeds.

260
00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:48,960
<font color="
will haunt you by night.

261
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:51,040
Your Majesty knows this. Jane!

262
00:17:52,040 --> 00:17:53,680
Jane.

263
00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:58,120
Understand this.

264
00:17:58,120 --> 00:18:02,360
A prince answers before the strait
court of heaven for his proceedings,

265
00:18:02,360 --> 00:18:05,520
and when he dies
<font color="

266
00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:08,560
of which ordinary men are quit.

267
00:18:08,560 --> 00:18:12,280
I am the earthly shepherd
of all God's sheep, rich and poor.

268
00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:16,320
It is my part to provide
for their corporeal welfare

269
00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:18,360
and their spiritual good.

270
00:18:18,360 --> 00:18:23,240
This duty is laid on me, and the
<font color="

271
00:18:23,240 --> 00:18:24,840
Amen to that.

272
00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:26,880
APPLAUSE

273
00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:33,040
We will consider
all lawful petitions.

274
00:18:34,360 --> 00:18:35,920
However...

275
00:18:37,040 --> 00:18:39,040
..when you are fruitful,

276
00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:42,040
that is when we will give ear
to your complaints.

277
00:18:43,760 --> 00:18:45,760
My Lady, come.

278
00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:32,040
<font color="
these stories against me, do you?

279
00:19:35,760 --> 00:19:37,680
Do you, Cremuel?

280
00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:45,520
WHIMPERING

281
00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:54,840
CRACK OF THUNDER

282
00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:01,040
RATTLING

283
00:20:04,520 --> 00:20:06,560
HEAVY BREATHING

284
00:20:16,040 --> 00:20:18,280
DOOR SLAMS
HASTY FOOTSTEPS

285
00:20:20,920 --> 00:20:22,760
DOOR OPENS

CROMWELL SIGHS

288
00:20:28,760 --> 00:20:32,280
Have you told the King? He waits
for you in the Chantry Chapel.

289
00:21:25,040 --> 00:21:27,040
I was thinking of Wolf Hall.

290
00:21:28,760 --> 00:21:30,520
The summer before.

291
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:33,520
I was happy there.

292
00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:37,040
Yet here I am,

293
00:21:37,040 --> 00:21:40,520
one summer passed
<font color="

294
00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:43,280
I have bastardised
both my daughters...

295
00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:46,120
..I have no heir,

296
00:21:46,120 --> 00:21:48,720
and, as I understand,
no hope of one.

297
00:21:50,360 --> 00:21:55,040
My subjects are in rebellion,
my coffers are empty

298
00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:57,320
and my cradle empty, too.

299
00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:23,440
<font color="

300
00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:26,360
should be able to place his faith
in his liege men.

301
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:32,200
But behind the banner
of these rebels...

302
00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:35,520
..lie other hidden banners...

303
00:22:37,040 --> 00:22:40,040
..of the Poles and the Courtenays.

304
00:22:41,040 --> 00:22:43,760
They raise this rebellion
<font color="

305
00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:47,760
will send another king,
my cousin Reginald Pole by name...

306
00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:52,040
..who will wed my daughter Mary
and turn me out to beg.

307
00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:58,920
This is why I have asked you
to bring Pole before me.

308
00:23:00,560 --> 00:23:02,360
Or, if you cannot...

309
00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:06,680
<font color="

310
00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:10,520
And yet you seem unable
to get hold of him.

311
00:23:14,040 --> 00:23:17,040
Perhaps I should bring
Stephen Gardiner back from France,

312
00:23:17,040 --> 00:23:19,520
since you don't seem
to know what to do.

313
00:23:23,600 --> 00:23:27,920
Norfolk, I suppose,
must be permitted to ride north.

1,600...

Why does Henry do this now?
This feast.

319
00:24:12,360 --> 00:24:14,880
Why at such a time? Because he must,

320
00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:17,720
precisely now, when none expects it.

321
00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:22,680
I'm for the north.
<font color="

322
00:24:33,600 --> 00:24:35,680
Take your seat, Gregory.

323
00:24:35,680 --> 00:24:40,520
The almanacs said this would be
a great year for surprises,

324
00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:43,040
and here's the Lady Mary
back at Court,

325
00:24:43,040 --> 00:24:45,040
long before she was looked for.

326
00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:49,720
This is your work, Crumb.
<font color="

327

As you'll remember, it was the Queen
who requested Lady Mary's presence.

00:25:09,280 --> 00:25:10,920
My Lady.

329
00:25:18,760 --> 00:25:21,680
I thought you had forbidden
Sexton the court, sire.

330
00:25:21,680 --> 00:25:23,120
True.

331
00:25:23,120 --> 00:25:24,760
I boxed his ears.

332
00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:27,680
But poor fellow has no other way
<font color="

333
00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:31,040
Have you not had your supper?

334
00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:33,760
Take your place.

00:25:40,040 --> 00:25:42,520
Lower, Tom. Go lower!

LAUGHTER

Which is the seat
for the blacksmith's lad?

338
00:25:47,960 --> 00:25:50,040
Very good. Very good.

339
00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:51,720
Go lower, Tom!

He is an impertinent fellow, but you

00:26:10,520 --> 00:26:12,440
I do.

We don't know that Tyndale

Oh, Tom, I can smell him from here!

I'm glad to see you back at Court,
My Lady.

I hope they're keeping you warm,

I have to ask you, My Lady,
have you not been approached?

365
00:27:58,760 --> 00:28:03,240
The rebels may use my name
but they have no permission from me.

366
00:28:09,040 --> 00:28:10,840
Careful.

00:28:10,840 --> 00:28:12,760
Careful, Mary.

As I predicted.

371
00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:32,280
The French are discussing it.
I'm not sure we are.

372
00:28:33,760 --> 00:28:36,760
You see yourself with
a Spanish husband, very likely.

You would not wish me

You would...

376
00:28:46,040 --> 00:28:49,000

377
00:28:50,760 --> 00:28:54,160
I would prefer you to marry

Though my father gave them me,
I know their origin.

Why did you wait so long
to come to Hunsdon...

383

to sign the oath?

Cardinal Wolsey used to say,

385
00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:33,040
"Show your power by your absence."

You look very well today, My Lady.
Crimson is your favourite colour...

00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:12,520
You saved me

00:30:15,520 --> 00:30:18,320
When I was almost past recovery.

396
00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:24,520
Your care of me...

397
00:30:25,640 --> 00:30:28,040
..has been so tender.

398
00:30:33,040 --> 00:30:35,000

00:30:55,280 --> 00:30:57,040
A father?

402
00:31:02,280 --> 00:31:05,520
She's heard the rumours
that I want to marry her.

403
00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:07,520
She's warning me off.

How long will she have to stand?

She can sit if she wants.

The King will want her as she is.

No flattery.

As soon as you wish, Bess.

00:40:08,440 --> 00:40:13,520
But you are not so very old, and
<font color="

535
00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:19,040
Mine?

536
00:40:19,040 --> 00:40:20,760
Mm.

537
00:40:25,520 --> 00:40:28,040
Perhaps we should go inside, Bess.

538
00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:31,040
Why? Because...

539
00:40:32,040 --> 00:40:35,200
..erm, there are...there are people,

540
00:40:35,200 --> 00:40:37,040
and your family...

541
00:40:38,040 --> 00:40:41,520
Perhaps we should not be seen
<font color="

542
00:40:41,520 --> 00:40:43,760
It might lead to misunderstandings.

543
00:40:47,040 --> 00:40:49,480
I think that there has been
a misunderstanding.

544
00:40:51,520 --> 00:40:54,040
I am offering my person
to one Cromwell only -

545
00:40:54,040 --> 00:40:55,760
the one that I marry.

546
00:40:55,760 --> 00:40:58,120
Which Cromwell is that meant to be?

547
00:41:00,280 --> 00:41:03,520
<font color="
you would even consider it, but...

548
00:41:03,520 --> 00:41:07,520
Well, I'm not at fault. I listened
to what my brother required of me.

549
00:41:08,520 --> 00:41:10,680
I never said,
"What age is Cromwell?"

550
00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:12,760
or, "Was his father
not a tradesman?"

551
00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:15,520
<font color="
and I assumed that...

552
00:41:15,520 --> 00:41:20,520
But why did you assume when
Gregory is so likely a young man

553
00:41:20,520 --> 00:41:22,720
and of an age to marry?

554
00:41:24,280 --> 00:41:26,600
I think that you have no idea,
My Lord,

555
00:41:26,600 --> 00:41:29,040
how much your single state
is talked of.

556
00:41:29,040 --> 00:41:31,600
<font color="
looks to you to change it.

557
00:41:33,040 --> 00:41:35,760
And how much they speculate
that a great

558
00:41:35,760 --> 00:41:38,760
and a dangerous honour
will come your way.

559
00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:46,040
Well, it's gossip,
but dangerous indeed to me,

560
00:41:46,040 --> 00:41:50,400
and dishonourable, I presume
<font color="

561
00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:53,040
Then you would do well to be clear
who you will marry

562
00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:54,600
and who you will not.

563
00:41:59,960 --> 00:42:02,840
Please, I beg you,
don't tell Gregory.

564
00:42:03,840 --> 00:42:06,280
He thinks you have freely
accepted him.

565
00:42:08,760 --> 00:42:11,520
And you will accept him,
<font color="

566
00:42:13,040 --> 00:42:16,440
Because you must be relieved it
is the son and not the father...

567
00:42:16,440 --> 00:42:17,760
Stop.

568
00:42:19,440 --> 00:42:22,280
I will not tell you
whether I am relieved or not.

569
00:42:25,520 --> 00:42:28,720
Tell me when and where
and I will come in my bridal finery

570
00:42:28,720 --> 00:42:32,040
and I will marry whichever
<font color="

571
00:42:57,280 --> 00:42:59,520
Was it carried over the sea?

572
00:42:59,520 --> 00:43:03,240
He will have wished someone
carried it over our roads.

573
00:43:21,040 --> 00:43:23,040
Lord Cromwell,

574
00:43:23,040 --> 00:43:26,280
I have heard a great deal about you.

575
00:43:26,280 --> 00:43:30,040
And I feel I know you already,
Don Diego, for you must be related

576
00:43:30,040 --> 00:43:33,520
<font color="
in the Cardinal's time.

577
00:43:33,520 --> 00:43:35,240
I had that honour.

578
00:43:35,240 --> 00:43:37,160
The Cardinal locked him up.

579
00:43:38,520 --> 00:43:40,120
Yes.

580
00:43:40,120 --> 00:43:43,800
A violation of every agreed
principle of diplomacy.

581
00:43:45,280 --> 00:43:48,280
I did not know you were
at Court then.

582
00:43:48,280 --> 00:43:50,760
<font color="

583
00:43:50,760 --> 00:43:53,520
I inherited his concerns.

584
00:43:53,520 --> 00:43:55,440
But not his methods.

585
00:44:06,280 --> 00:44:09,440
Have you brought Dom Luis' portrait
for My Lady?

586
00:44:11,040 --> 00:44:12,760
Just that.

587
00:44:14,520 --> 00:44:17,840
There are presents, of course,
which follow by mule.

588
00:44:17,840 --> 00:44:20,440
<font color="

589
00:44:20,440 --> 00:44:22,760
Lady Mary's tastes are lavish.

590
00:44:22,760 --> 00:44:26,040
I'll give you a quarter of an hour,
Morning glory,

591
00:44:26,040 --> 00:44:29,040
and then, with regret,
I shall interrupt you.

592
00:44:29,040 --> 00:44:32,280
It is hardly time enough for them
to pray together.

593
00:44:32,280 --> 00:44:35,040
<font color="

594
00:44:40,280 --> 00:44:44,520
Don Diego isn't very friendly. I
thought it was an ambassador's duty.

595
00:44:44,520 --> 00:44:47,240
He is, er, fastidious.

596
00:44:47,240 --> 00:44:48,840
THEY LAUGH

597
00:44:48,840 --> 00:44:52,160
Oh, one of the rebel leaders
has implicated you.

598
00:44:52,160 --> 00:44:54,440
What? Under questioning.

599
00:44:54,440 --> 00:44:57,440
<font color="
sent to the traitor Darcy,

600
00:44:57,440 --> 00:44:59,280
going back three years.

601
00:44:59,280 --> 00:45:01,840
Erm... I protest.

602
00:45:01,840 --> 00:45:04,120
You claim the letters are forgeries?

603
00:45:04,120 --> 00:45:06,960
I make no claim.
I say nothing to them.

604
00:45:07,960 --> 00:45:10,680
It's lucky for you I am more clement
than the Cardinal.

605
00:45:10,680 --> 00:45:12,360
<font color="

606
00:45:12,360 --> 00:45:15,040
That's close enough to 15 minutes,
don't you think?

607
00:45:21,480 --> 00:45:23,040
WHISPERING

608
00:45:24,280 --> 00:45:25,760
CROMWELL CLEARS THROAT

609
00:45:26,760 --> 00:45:30,560
My Lord! Go out, we are not done.

610
00:45:30,560 --> 00:45:34,920
But I come to remind you, sir,
of your urgent next engagement.

611
00:45:34,920 --> 00:45:37,040
<font color="

612
00:45:41,040 --> 00:45:43,080
Excuse me your highness.

613
00:45:43,080 --> 00:45:45,280
For now we must part.

614
00:45:45,280 --> 00:45:47,680
No, do not kneel. Haste away.

615
00:45:47,680 --> 00:45:50,320
The Lord Privy Seal is waiting.

616
00:45:54,040 --> 00:45:56,280
I appreciate your advice.

617
00:46:12,760 --> 00:46:15,040
So, what passed?

618
00:46:17,520 --> 00:46:19,880
He asked me if I meant what I said.

619
00:46:19,880 --> 00:46:22,120
<font color="

620
00:46:22,120 --> 00:46:23,920
You know full well!

621
00:46:30,760 --> 00:46:34,040
If I meant it when I said
that I accepted my father

622
00:46:34,040 --> 00:46:36,120
as head of the Church

623
00:46:36,120 --> 00:46:39,280
and that he and my mother
were never truly married.

624
00:46:39,280 --> 00:46:40,840
I said that I did.

625
00:46:40,840 --> 00:46:42,840
Give me the letter.

626
00:46:42,840 --> 00:46:44,800
<font color="

627
00:46:44,800 --> 00:46:47,920
The one he carried
hidden under his shirt.

628
00:47:12,640 --> 00:47:14,600
MUSICIANS PLAY

629
00:47:14,600 --> 00:47:16,600
CHATTER

630
00:47:36,520 --> 00:47:39,440
I hope the wedding was not
too modest for your sister.

631
00:47:39,440 --> 00:47:43,880
I would not want Norfolk to
accuse me of aping the nobility.

632
00:47:46,040 --> 00:47:49,440
<font color="
My Lord, you and I,

633
00:47:49,440 --> 00:47:51,920
since we welcomed you to Wolf Hall.

634
00:47:51,920 --> 00:47:53,560
Won't you join us?

635
00:48:00,760 --> 00:48:02,520
I remember that visit.

636
00:48:04,760 --> 00:48:07,760
We wouldn't have gone if you hadn't
risen from your sick bed

637
00:48:07,760 --> 00:48:10,840
and added Wolf Hall to the King's
<font color="

638
00:48:14,520 --> 00:48:17,520
And that's where he found
his new queen,

639
00:48:17,520 --> 00:48:19,320
and where you had to...

640
00:48:20,320 --> 00:48:22,520
..you had to stand aside.

641
00:48:58,280 --> 00:48:59,680
Sit.

642
00:49:04,520 --> 00:49:06,280
You are happy?

643
00:49:08,040 --> 00:49:10,040
You and Bess don't seem...

644
00:49:10,040 --> 00:49:13,040
you know, shy of each other.

645
00:49:14,040 --> 00:49:15,680
<font color="

646
00:49:17,520 --> 00:49:19,360
We are both happy.

647
00:49:22,760 --> 00:49:25,040
So please not to look at her, sir.

648
00:49:27,280 --> 00:49:29,920
Converse with her when
others are present...

649
00:49:30,920 --> 00:49:32,840
..and do not write to her.

650
00:49:36,040 --> 00:49:39,040
I ask this of you.
I have never asked anything much.

651
00:49:41,040 --> 00:49:42,760
Oh, Gregory.

652
00:49:45,040 --> 00:49:47,040
<font color="

653
00:49:48,280 --> 00:49:50,520
I should have made myself clear.

654
00:49:55,040 --> 00:49:59,120
It was only out of duty
when she consented,

655
00:49:59,120 --> 00:50:01,280
when she thought I was the groom.

656
00:50:02,280 --> 00:50:04,040
And how this...

657
00:50:05,040 --> 00:50:07,920
..how this muddle came about...

658
00:50:08,920 --> 00:50:11,440
..well, Seymour,
you know, he can be brisk.

659
00:50:11,440 --> 00:50:15,520
<font color="
in conversation.

660
00:50:17,280 --> 00:50:19,040
It can happen.

661
00:50:20,760 --> 00:50:22,760
Other things can happen.

662
00:50:25,760 --> 00:50:27,680
But do not let them.

663
00:50:29,040 --> 00:50:31,040
I am a man of honour.

664
00:50:31,040 --> 00:50:32,760
I mean, I'm...

665
00:50:34,760 --> 00:50:36,760
I'm a man of my word.

666
00:50:36,760 --> 00:50:38,880
So many words.

667
00:50:38,880 --> 00:50:42,040
You do everything.
<font color="

668
00:50:45,520 --> 00:50:47,520
You are everything.

669
00:50:51,760 --> 00:50:53,520
So I beg you, Father...

670
00:50:54,520 --> 00:50:58,520
..grant me an inch of your broad
earth and leave my wife to me.

671
00:51:20,040 --> 00:51:22,760
I hear a rumour
King Francois is dead.

672
00:51:22,760 --> 00:51:25,760
HE BREATHES HEAVILY

673
00:51:25,760 --> 00:51:27,560
I fear untrue.

674
00:51:29,520 --> 00:51:33,000
<font color="
Hans, or you will have to chase me.

675
00:51:34,000 --> 00:51:37,080
I shall not linger...

676
00:51:34,000 --> 00:51:37,080
HEAVY BREATHING CONTINUES

677
00:51:37,080 --> 00:51:39,000
..when I could be hunting...

678
00:51:40,000 --> 00:51:41,960
A seat for the King!

679
00:51:41,960 --> 00:51:44,800
Hurry!

680
00:51:41,960 --> 00:51:44,800
CLAMOUR

681
00:51:49,200 --> 00:51:51,120
Send them all out. Out.

682
00:51:51,120 --> 00:51:53,800
<font color="

683
00:52:30,040 --> 00:52:32,920
Norfolk has been
writing to you, I hear...

684
00:52:35,040 --> 00:52:37,040
..begging for his brother's life.

685
00:52:38,040 --> 00:52:39,840
"Tom Truth".

686
00:52:41,880 --> 00:52:46,040
You don't imagine that Norfolk
will ever be your friend, do you?

687
00:52:46,040 --> 00:52:47,520
No.

688
00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:53,640
<font color="
that I ask for mercy.

689
00:52:53,640 --> 00:52:56,360
Then why should I not punish Truth?

690
00:52:56,360 --> 00:53:00,400
Why should I not cut off his head
for his knavery with my niece?

691
00:53:00,400 --> 00:53:03,040
Because he is young, sire,

692
00:53:03,040 --> 00:53:06,040
and experience will improve
his judgment.

00:53:06,040 --> 00:53:08,280
<font color="

694
00:53:08,280 --> 00:53:11,280
It's a lesson he'll not forget
and...

695

the Howards will be
indebted to you hereafter.

696
00:53:14,160 --> 00:53:16,520
Yes, but you always say this,
Cromwell.

697
00:53:16,520 --> 00:53:19,440
You say remit them
and they will behave better.

698
00:53:19,440 --> 00:53:23,520
<font color="
whom I restored in blood,

699
00:53:23,520 --> 00:53:26,280
whom I plucked from penury
and disgrace.

700

How am I repaid?

701
00:53:27,960 --> 00:53:31,920
By Reginald parading around Europe
calling me the Anti-Christ.

702
00:53:33,760 --> 00:53:36,840
You promised that you would
put an end to him.

703
00:53:36,840 --> 00:53:40,040
<font color="
me, "I'll have him struck down

704

705
00:53:42,600 --> 00:53:45,280
Majesty, I don't know
how to intercept a man

706
00:53:45,280 --> 00:53:47,520
who is never where he is expected.

707

My people await him
<font color="

708
00:53:51,040 --> 00:53:54,760
but then he falls from his horse,
is carried into a refuge,

709
00:53:54,760 --> 00:53:57,680
is three days nursing his bruises.

710
00:53:57,680 --> 00:54:01,520
We anticipate him at the next town,
then we hear he's missed his way,

711
00:54:01,520 --> 00:54:05,040
wandered off in a circle,
ended up back where he began.

712
00:54:05,040 --> 00:54:07,280
<font color="

713
00:54:07,280 --> 00:54:09,520
Then learn to be stupid, too!

714
00:54:27,520 --> 00:54:29,120
Always you.

715
00:54:31,040 --> 00:54:33,680
Always you with the bad news.

716
00:54:47,040 --> 00:54:49,040
Pick up what you can there.

717
00:54:50,520 --> 00:54:52,360
Gather what you can.

718
00:54:52,360 --> 00:54:55,520
Yes, yes, yes...
Please, please, please, My Lord.

719
00:54:55,520 --> 00:54:57,360
Please. Thank you.

720
00:54:57,360 --> 00:54:59,520
<font color="

721
00:55:11,680 --> 00:55:13,280
My Lord.

722
00:55:13,280 --> 00:55:16,520
Christophe, there's a young woman
in green at the gate.

723
00:55:16,520 --> 00:55:18,360
Have her brought in.

724
00:55:28,040 --> 00:55:29,920
FOOTSTEPS

725
00:55:34,760 --> 00:55:37,280
I saw you at the gate yesterday?

726
00:55:37,280 --> 00:55:38,600
Yes.

727
00:55:38,600 --> 00:55:41,280
I'm sorry you've had to come back
<font color="

728
00:55:41,280 --> 00:55:44,280
As you can see,
half of England is out there.

729
00:55:44,280 --> 00:55:46,760
It's been a longer wait
than you know, sir.

730
00:55:46,760 --> 00:55:49,840
I've come from over the sea,
from Mr Vaughan's household,

731
00:55:49,840 --> 00:55:51,520
in Antwerp.
Ah, you should have said.

732
00:55:51,520 --> 00:55:53,120
<font color="

733
00:55:53,120 --> 00:55:55,520
Christophe, some wine
for this young lady.

734
00:55:57,760 --> 00:55:59,760
You have a letter?

735
00:55:59,760 --> 00:56:01,520
No.

736
00:56:01,520 --> 00:56:03,360
No letter.

737
00:56:06,280 --> 00:56:07,920
Who are those?

738
00:56:07,920 --> 00:56:09,760
Princes of England.

739
00:56:09,760 --> 00:56:12,040
Hmm. You recall so many?

740
00:56:12,040 --> 00:56:13,960
Huh. They're long gone.

741
00:56:13,960 --> 00:56:16,040
<font color="

742
00:56:16,040 --> 00:56:17,840
invented them.

743
00:56:17,840 --> 00:56:21,040
Why?
"Why"?

744
00:56:22,280 --> 00:56:25,040
As a reminder that men
become dust...

745
00:56:26,040 --> 00:56:28,040
..but the realm is continued.

746
00:56:41,040 --> 00:56:43,280
Where did you get that tapestry?

747
00:56:43,280 --> 00:56:45,520
The King gave it to me
for my services.

748
00:56:46,520 --> 00:56:48,200
<font color="

749
00:56:48,200 --> 00:56:51,160
A Cardinal. My patron.

750
00:56:53,040 --> 00:56:55,680
You didn't have it made
for yourself?

751
00:56:55,680 --> 00:56:59,040
No, it was beyond my means.
I was not always a wealthy man.

752
00:56:59,040 --> 00:57:03,680
You can see it's Sheba and Solomon.
You know your scriptures, I venture.

753
00:57:03,680 --> 00:57:05,680
<font color="

754
00:57:07,440 --> 00:57:09,520
I am Anselma's child.

755
00:57:09,520 --> 00:57:12,360
I've no idea how she got herself
into that tapestry,

756
00:57:12,360 --> 00:57:14,840
but we can ask ourselves that
another day.

757
00:57:16,280 --> 00:57:18,760
Well, then you are
very, very welcome.

758
00:57:20,520 --> 00:57:24,280
I did not know that
<font color="

759
00:57:25,280 --> 00:57:28,120
It was for her sake that
I coveted the tapestry.

760
00:57:28,120 --> 00:57:32,280
I used to look and look,
and one day the King said,

761
00:57:32,280 --> 00:57:35,520
"Thomas, perhaps this lady
should come live with you."

762
00:57:37,520 --> 00:57:39,680
So your father would be...?

763
00:57:39,680 --> 00:57:41,840
I know the gentleman you mean.

764
00:57:41,840 --> 00:57:44,520
<font color="
after I was born.

765
00:57:44,520 --> 00:57:46,040
Ah.

766
00:57:47,040 --> 00:57:49,280
So he is not your father? No.

767
00:57:51,040 --> 00:57:52,760
You are.

768
00:57:58,040 --> 00:57:59,680
Look at me.

769
00:58:00,680 --> 00:58:02,760
Do you not see yourself?
