1
00:00:02,320 --> 00:00:04,680
This programme contains some
strong language

2
00:00:08,360 --> 00:00:09,720
THEY GRUNT

3
00:00:14,360 --> 00:00:15,720
HE GRUNTS

4
00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:25,880
BELL TOLLS

5
00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:43,840
SHE GASPS

6
00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:35,640
If I'd known...

7
00:02:37,240 --> 00:02:38,440
..I would have come.

8
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,720
Then come with me now, Father.

9
00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,480
To Antwerp that you were homesick
<font color="

10
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:03,320
But you will not.

11
00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:29,680
Come here.

12
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:45,000
I did not know myself
what was happening.

13
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:46,760
If I had known, I w...

14
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:51,280
I would have got warning
to you somehow.

15
00:03:53,080 --> 00:03:54,480
As we were going in,

16
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:57,400
Wriothesley called me back for some
<font color="

17
00:04:00,280 --> 00:04:03,280
And then as I approached
the council chamber...

18
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:05,280
Sadler.

19
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:07,920
Your master is arrested.

20
00:04:07,920 --> 00:04:10,640
I am going to Parliament House
to announce it.

21
00:04:17,040 --> 00:04:18,880
How did Parliament take it?

22
00:04:19,840 --> 00:04:21,520
In silence.

23
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:23,400
<font color="

24
00:04:23,400 --> 00:04:27,480
A man made earl in the morning
and kicked out by afternoon.

25
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:31,720
Edward Seymour went at once
to the King to speak for Gregory.

26
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:33,240
Did he speak for me?

27
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:36,720
No, sir.
Did anyone speak for me?

28
00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:40,120
Yes. But I was not heard.

29
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:44,720
<font color="

30
00:04:44,720 --> 00:04:46,680
He is writing the King a letter.

31
00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:50,400
Try and get me the contents.

32
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:54,240
Richard is enraged.

33
00:04:54,240 --> 00:04:55,320
Mm.

34
00:04:56,520 --> 00:04:58,800
He wanted to go straight to the King
and break in on him.

35
00:04:58,800 --> 00:05:00,320
Tell him he must not do that.

36
00:05:00,320 --> 00:05:03,720
He must rest quiet,
<font color="

37
00:05:03,720 --> 00:05:06,320
Both of them must keep away
from you.

38
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:09,800
You must do nothing that could
be thought of as conspiracy.

39
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:13,120
I know how Henry's mind works.

40
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:19,160
Well, obviously that's not true,
or I wouldn't be here, would I?

41
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:22,280
<font color="

42
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:34,240
They will both wish to visit here
if the King permits.

43
00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:37,040
No.

44
00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:40,760
They must not.

45
00:05:44,280 --> 00:05:45,720
They must stay away.

46
00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:13,120
You know, I never knew you two to be
such great comrades till lately.

47
00:06:13,120 --> 00:06:15,880
More likely to abuse each other
<font color="

48
00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:18,480
than sit together as friends.

49
00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:21,440
We might not always have seen
eye to eye,

50
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:23,800
but one thing we have in common -

51
00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:27,600
when we scent the truth,
we stick on the trail.

52
00:06:27,600 --> 00:06:29,600
So beware, Cromwell.

53
00:06:29,600 --> 00:06:32,200
Whatever we suspect,
<font color="

54
00:06:33,680 --> 00:06:35,200
..one way or the other.

55
00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:38,080
It is as crude a threat
as I've heard, my lord,

56
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:39,640
but you have no need for it.

57
00:06:39,640 --> 00:06:42,320
I will tell you the truth
as I know it and believe it,

58
00:06:42,320 --> 00:06:44,360
and beyond that, there is nothing
for you.

59
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:50,600
<font color="

60
00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:13,120
We might begin with
the purple doublet.

61
00:07:16,360 --> 00:07:20,680
You understand, sir, that it is my
duty to put these questions to you,

62
00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:23,160
and that I bear you no ill will
in the doing of it.

63
00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:25,560
I know a disclaimer
when I hear it, Riche.

64
00:07:25,560 --> 00:07:27,000
<font color="

65
00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:30,880
No, by God! What on earth gave
Your Lordship that idea?

66
00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:34,840
The King of France
once gave me this.

67
00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:39,640
And when he did,
I took it to our King,

68
00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:42,280
who after a time
was pleased to return it to me,

69
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:46,000
<font color="
between us, and if I sent it to him,

70
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:49,560
even if I did not have my seal,
he would know it came from me.

71
00:07:49,560 --> 00:07:53,920
So...I send it to him now...

72
00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:56,440
..Master Secretary.

73
00:07:58,080 --> 00:08:00,120
GARDINER: But what's the point?
The King knows where you are.

74
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:02,200
<font color="
Yes, I know,

75
00:08:02,200 --> 00:08:04,960
but it will remind him
of how I've served him

76
00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:07,960
to the best of my capacities,
in the utmost of my strength,

77
00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:10,160
as I hope to do for many years yet.

78
00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:12,000
Yes, well, that is what we are here
to determine -

79
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:13,800
<font color="

80
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:17,920
whether you have abused
his confidence, as he believes,

81
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:19,680
and plotted against his throne.

82
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:21,000
How plotted?

83
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:24,160
Letters have been discovered
at Austin Friars.

84
00:08:24,160 --> 00:08:28,120
Highly prejudicial to your claims
<font color="

85
00:08:28,120 --> 00:08:30,200
Clear proof of treason.

86
00:08:35,920 --> 00:08:38,040
I'm waiting for you
to tell me what they are.

87
00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:42,360
I cannot guess what you might forge,
can I?

88
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:49,400
Letters from Martin Luther himself
and his heretic brethren.

89
00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:52,200
Melanchthon? Oh, dear.
<font color="

90
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:56,560
And also from German princes, urging
on you a course most injurious

91
00:08:56,560 --> 00:08:58,360
to King and Commonwealth.

92
00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:00,840
There are no such letters.
They never existed.

93
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:02,680
And even if they did...
Lawyer's logic!

94
00:09:02,680 --> 00:09:05,640
And even if they did, even if
<font color="

95
00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:09,000
would I really leave them
about the house for you to find?

96
00:09:09,000 --> 00:09:10,720
Would I, Call-Me?

97
00:09:13,000 --> 00:09:14,600
Did we do such things?

98
00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:24,000
I, erm...

99
00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:28,480
Shall we pass on?

100
00:09:28,480 --> 00:09:30,920
Would you like me to set the agenda
and run the meeting?

101
00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:33,560
<font color="
my wardrobe.

102
00:09:33,560 --> 00:09:39,400
Yes, the doublet. In the Cardinal's
day, you owned and were seen to wear

103
00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:41,720
a doublet of purple satin.

104
00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:44,720
What gave you the right
to wear such a colour? Hmm?

105
00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:48,720
It's the preserve of royal persons
<font color="

106
00:09:48,720 --> 00:09:51,320
Yes, I saw it myself.

107
00:09:51,320 --> 00:09:53,440
And moreover, you had sables.

108
00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:57,760
I feel the cold.

109
00:10:00,040 --> 00:10:01,680
Do you know? It was a gift.

110
00:10:01,680 --> 00:10:05,680
A gift from a foreign client of mine
who did not know our rules.

111
00:10:05,680 --> 00:10:10,120
If your client did not know
<font color="

112
00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:12,240
It was above your rank and station

113
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:14,960
to dress as if you were
an earl already.

114
00:10:14,960 --> 00:10:16,240
That's true.

115
00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:18,720
But why would Your Lordship object
if the King did not?

116
00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:21,840
His Majesty would not like
his ministers to go about

117
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:23,920
<font color="

118
00:10:23,920 --> 00:10:26,760
Christ, Riche,
is this the best you can do?

119
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:32,360
The doublet is just a single example
of your insensate and ungodly pride.

120
00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:35,560
It's not just your attire
that offends.

121
00:10:35,560 --> 00:10:38,280
It's the way you talk,
the way you put yourself forward,

122
00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:40,280
<font color="

123
00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:42,480
Interrupt me, for Christ's sake!

124
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:46,000
Scorn ambassadors,
the envoys of great princes.

125
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:48,440
Yes. And speaking of ambassadors,

126
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:50,880
you and Monsieur Chapuys
are regularly... Not yet!

127
00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:03,160
You have been entrusted
<font color="

128
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:06,280
and you scant the procedures
that are laid down.

129
00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:09,640
You reach across and you put your
signature to some scrap of paper,

130
00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:12,480
and thousands are paid out
without warrant.

131
00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:16,880
There is no part of the King's
<font color="

132
00:11:18,760 --> 00:11:20,560
You override the council.

133
00:11:20,560 --> 00:11:23,360
You pull state policy
out of your pocket.

134
00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:25,360
You read other men's letters.

135
00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:28,280
You corrupt their households
to your own service.

136
00:11:28,280 --> 00:11:30,680
You take their duties
out of their hands.

137
00:11:30,680 --> 00:11:33,440
<font color="
but don't.

138
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:35,880
Sometimes government
has to accelerate.

139
00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:39,480
I cannot always wait for the slow
grindings of your brain, my lord.

140
00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:43,000
We have to move
in anticipation of events.

141
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:45,840
I do not see how
<font color="

142
00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:49,320
So are we done with the doublet,
then?

143
00:11:49,320 --> 00:11:55,840
The King of France congratulates
our King on your putting down.

144
00:11:55,840 --> 00:12:00,120
The French have much to tell us
regarding your ambitions,

145
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:04,760
not to mention your methods of
<font color="

146
00:12:04,760 --> 00:12:07,600
I see.
This is where it began, isn't it?

147
00:12:07,600 --> 00:12:09,840
Your sojourn to France.

148
00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:12,840
The French gave hints of an alliance
between our kingdoms,

149
00:12:12,840 --> 00:12:16,160
something you and Gardiner have
long been urging on the King.

150
00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:17,400
<font color="

151
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:20,920
The price was me,
and the King baulked at it.

152
00:12:20,920 --> 00:12:22,200
Until now.

153
00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:27,160
The French prefer to deal with me,
my lord. I'm sure they do.

154
00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:30,240
Why would they not prefer a minister
whom they can bewilder and trick

155
00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:31,680
<font color="

156
00:12:31,680 --> 00:12:32,920
I'd like to take us back...

157
00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:34,920
Yes, I think you had better
take us back.

158
00:12:34,920 --> 00:12:37,640
You're in danger of proving
what a bad minister I have been

159
00:12:37,640 --> 00:12:39,120
for the King of France.

160
00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:41,640
You made a great deal of money
in the Cardinal's day.

161
00:12:41,640 --> 00:12:44,400
<font color="
but from my legal practice, yes.

162
00:12:44,400 --> 00:12:46,040
How did you do that?
Long hours.

163
00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:47,920
Wolsey commonly enriched
his servants.

164
00:12:47,920 --> 00:12:49,680
He did, as Stephen here can testify.

165
00:12:49,680 --> 00:12:52,920
But the Cardinal fell from grace
before his debts could be paid.

166
00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:56,640
<font color="
his enemies laid hold of his assets,

167
00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:59,520
bless him.
He cost me money in the end.

168
00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:01,440
When you say his enemies,
you mean the King.

169
00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:03,160
HE CHUCKLES

170
00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:04,800
Give me credit, Gardiner.

171
00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:07,720
You don't think I'll gratify you
<font color="

172
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:10,280
Wolsey had enemies enough
in this very room.

173
00:13:10,280 --> 00:13:12,720
But you adhered to him
even when he was a proven traitor.

174
00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:15,000
What you call adherence,
the King calls loyalty.

175
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:18,640
'Tis true.
I have heard His Majesty say it.

176
00:13:18,640 --> 00:13:21,400
<font color="
He told me so.

177
00:13:21,400 --> 00:13:23,080
He misses him to this very day.

178
00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:27,080
You wear a ring
the Cardinal gave you.

179
00:13:27,080 --> 00:13:28,960
It possesses certain properties.

180
00:13:28,960 --> 00:13:31,080
Do you covet it, Ricardo?
I'll give it to you.

181
00:13:31,080 --> 00:13:33,080
It will save you from drowning.

182
00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:34,720
<font color="

183
00:13:34,720 --> 00:13:37,920
It also preserves the wearer
from wild beasts

184
00:13:37,920 --> 00:13:39,640
and secures a Prince's favour.

185
00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:41,840
It doesn't seem to be working
very well, though, does it?

186
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:44,720
It also allegedly makes princesses
fall in love with you.

187
00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:46,240
<font color="

188
00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:48,520
Well, you didn't turn away
Lady Mary, did you?

189
00:13:55,160 --> 00:14:00,760
You presumed, and the King knows it,
to insinuate yourself with her,

190
00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:04,680
to ingratiate yourself
so that she referred

191
00:14:04,680 --> 00:14:07,400
to you as "my only friend."

192
00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:08,680
<font color="

193
00:14:08,680 --> 00:14:11,840
Mary would be dead if I hadn't
persuaded her to obey her father.

194
00:14:11,840 --> 00:14:14,440
And why were you so interested
in saving her life?

195
00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:16,480
Perhaps because I'm a Christian man.

196
00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:18,680
Perhaps because you thought
she would reward you.

197
00:14:18,680 --> 00:14:21,160
<font color="
How would she reward me?

198
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:24,520
It was your dreadful presumption,
offensive to Almighty God,

199
00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:26,040
to attempt to marry her.

200
00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:28,040
Yes. And, for instance,
upon a certain occasion,

201
00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:29,960
you were her Valentine,
and you gave her a gift.

202
00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:32,960
<font color="
We draw lots for Valentines.

203
00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:35,480
Yes, but you rigged the ballot.

204
00:14:35,480 --> 00:14:39,920
You have often boasted of your ways
to manipulate elections of any sort,

205
00:14:39,920 --> 00:14:42,560
even the draw at a tournament.

206
00:14:42,560 --> 00:14:45,680
I offer this, and my recollection
is perfectly clear.

207
00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:48,960
<font color="
in the field,

208
00:14:48,960 --> 00:14:52,440
you said, "Never fear.
I can get you on the King's team,

209
00:14:52,440 --> 00:14:55,080
"and then you will not have to run
against His Majesty."

210
00:14:56,720 --> 00:14:59,040
Gregory told you that?

211
00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:01,600
He told me that very day.

212
00:15:01,600 --> 00:15:03,160
You hurt his pride.

213
00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:09,080
<font color="
and he spoke to you, Call-Me,

214
00:15:09,080 --> 00:15:11,080
whom he took to be his friend.

215
00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:13,200
But I suppose you must use
what you have.

216
00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:16,320
Valentines, sorceries,
purple doublets.

217
00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:19,360
Any jury would laugh you
out of court. But then...

218
00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:24,560
<font color="

219
00:15:24,560 --> 00:15:26,400
There'll be no trial.

220
00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:29,840
You'll pass a bill
to make an end of me.

221
00:15:29,840 --> 00:15:33,240
And I cannot complain of the
process. I have used it myself.

222
00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:38,720
You gave Mary a ring in the summer
of 1536.

223
00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:40,560
<font color="

224
00:15:40,560 --> 00:15:43,360
It was a piece for her
to wear around her neck.

225
00:15:43,360 --> 00:15:45,480
Why?
Why what?

226
00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:48,160
Why did she wear it around her neck
and not on her finger?

227
00:15:48,160 --> 00:15:50,760
Because it was too heavy.
There were too many words.

228
00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:53,680
<font color="
Words enjoining obedience.

229
00:15:53,680 --> 00:15:55,880
You thought she should obey you?

230
00:15:55,880 --> 00:15:57,840
I thought she should obey
her father.

231
00:15:57,840 --> 00:16:00,240
And I showed it to His Majesty.
He liked it so well.

232
00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:02,440
he took it for himself
to give to her.

233
00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:04,480
<font color="
I was there.

234
00:16:04,480 --> 00:16:07,640
Well, all the same, the volume of
the correspondence with the lady,

235
00:16:07,640 --> 00:16:10,400
your manifest influence with her,
the nature of the information she

236
00:16:10,400 --> 00:16:14,000
confided in you, information that
<font color="

237
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:15,680
You mean she told me
she had a toothache?

238
00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:17,080
Yes. Headaches.

239
00:16:17,080 --> 00:16:19,960
She confided information
proper for a physician to know,

240
00:16:19,960 --> 00:16:21,800
not a stranger.
I was hardly a stranger.

241
00:16:21,800 --> 00:16:25,160
"I do thank you with all my heart
<font color="

242
00:16:25,160 --> 00:16:28,520
"you have had for me. I think myself
very much bound to you.

243
00:16:28,520 --> 00:16:32,520
"Your assured bounden loving
friend throughout my life, Mary."

244
00:16:32,520 --> 00:16:33,760
That's right. Friend.

245
00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:35,360
And in fact, she gave you gifts,
didn't she?

246
00:16:35,360 --> 00:16:38,280
<font color="
That signifies hand in glove.

247
00:16:38,280 --> 00:16:41,680
That signifies alliance.
That signifies matrimony.

248
00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:44,480
The King of France gave me gloves.
He didn't want to marry me.

249
00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:48,080
It disgusts me that a woman
of noble blood should lower herself.

250
00:16:48,080 --> 00:16:49,400
<font color="

251
00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:52,160
Cromwell made her believe
only his own person

252
00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:53,880
stood between herself and death.

253
00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:57,480
Ah! There you have it. My "person."

254
00:16:57,480 --> 00:17:00,840
It was my purple doublet.
She couldn't resist it.

255
00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:03,760
Could a woman rule?

256
00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:06,320
<font color="

257
00:17:06,320 --> 00:17:07,360
Yes!

258
00:17:07,360 --> 00:17:10,160
Yes, and you bursting in.

259
00:17:10,160 --> 00:17:11,760
"It depends who she marries."

260
00:17:11,760 --> 00:17:14,400
And since that time,
you have ensured the Lady Mary

261
00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:17,160
never makes a marriage. All of her
suitors have been sent away.

262
00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:21,400
<font color="
took his fall at the joust.

263
00:17:21,400 --> 00:17:23,560
The 24th of January, 1536.

264
00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:27,600
And he was carried to a tent and lay
on a bier, either dead or dying,

265
00:17:27,600 --> 00:17:31,000
and all your concern was,
"Where is Mary?"

266
00:17:31,000 --> 00:17:32,520
I wanted to protect her.

267
00:17:32,520 --> 00:17:36,000
<font color="
Norfolk, and from your niece.

268
00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:38,680
And if you had laid hands on her,
what would you have done?

269
00:17:38,680 --> 00:17:40,480
You tell me.
What makes the best story?

270
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:42,360
Did I seduce her?
Did I enforce her?

271
00:17:42,360 --> 00:17:47,120
<font color="
marry her than you did.

272
00:17:47,120 --> 00:17:49,440
Would you kindly address me
as what I am?

273
00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:56,080
I beg your pardon, my lord Bishop.

274
00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:59,840
Leave aside marriage.
There are other means of control.

275
00:17:59,840 --> 00:18:02,920
The King believed you meant
<font color="

276
00:18:02,920 --> 00:18:04,920
and rule through her.

277
00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:07,600
And to this end,
you cultivated your friendship

278
00:18:07,600 --> 00:18:09,400
with Chapuys, the Emperor's man.

279
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:12,200
As he dined with you
twice in the same week.

280
00:18:12,200 --> 00:18:14,240
Well, you should know.
You were at the table.

281
00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:16,280
<font color="
and your friend.

282
00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:18,200
I don't have any confidants
and few friends.

283
00:18:18,200 --> 00:18:20,280
Till yesterday, I counted you
amongst them.

284
00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:22,080
At your house at Austin Friars,

285
00:18:22,080 --> 00:18:24,320
you conferred with Chapuys
in the tower.

286
00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:28,760
<font color="
about Mary, her future estate.

287
00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:31,240
I made no promises.

288
00:18:31,240 --> 00:18:33,080
Chapuys thought you did.

289
00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:34,240
Mary thought you did.

290
00:18:34,240 --> 00:18:37,160
How would you know? You weren't even
in the realm at the time.

291
00:18:45,360 --> 00:18:48,600
Well, well, you strain my charity,
<font color="

292
00:18:48,600 --> 00:18:53,200
When I am set at large, I'll try not
to hold these things against you.

293
00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:56,520
Let us pursue the matter
of your marriage further.

294
00:18:56,520 --> 00:18:59,520
The Lady Mary was not
your only prospect.

295
00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:03,000
You took care that Lady Margaret
Douglas was preserved,

296
00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:06,040
<font color="
to the King.

297
00:19:06,040 --> 00:19:07,680
Yes, I uncovered that whole affair,

298
00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:10,160
and you talked it away
as if it were nothing.

299
00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:13,400
No, not nothing. Her sweetheart,
"Tom Truth," was executed.

300
00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:15,080
Your brother.

301
00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:17,240
I'm sorry I could not
<font color="

302
00:19:17,240 --> 00:19:20,120
You put her under a debt
of gratitude.

303
00:19:20,120 --> 00:19:21,920
The King's niece,

304
00:19:21,920 --> 00:19:25,320
and what was she to you
but another path to the throne?

305
00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:28,640
"If I were King"
is a phrase often in your mouth.

306
00:19:28,640 --> 00:19:32,960
You, a manifest traitor, who offered
<font color="

307
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:36,480
What? Let me remind you that you
were heard by a witness here,

308
00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:39,320
at the Tower, to utter certain
treasonable words,

309
00:19:39,320 --> 00:19:41,600
that you would maintain your own
opinion in religion,

310
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:44,120
that you would never allow the King
<font color="

311
00:19:44,120 --> 00:19:48,200
and - these are the words alleged -
that "If he would turn,

312
00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:52,360
"yet I would not turn, and I would
take the field against him,

313
00:19:52,360 --> 00:19:54,800
"my sword in my hand."

314
00:19:59,040 --> 00:20:02,040
And you accompanied these words
with certain...

315
00:20:02,040 --> 00:20:04,040
<font color="

316
00:20:04,040 --> 00:20:05,760
Is this likely?

317
00:20:05,760 --> 00:20:07,960
That I, even if I had such thoughts,

318
00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:10,120
that I would speak this out
in public?

319
00:20:10,120 --> 00:20:12,000
And where has this witness
been since last year?

320
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:14,720
If I spoke treason, is he not
culpable for concealing it?

321
00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:17,360
<font color="
in chains.

322
00:20:17,360 --> 00:20:19,240
You admit it is treason?

323
00:20:19,240 --> 00:20:21,960
Yes, my lord,
but I do not admit to saying it.

324
00:20:21,960 --> 00:20:24,240
How would I make good such a threat?

325
00:20:24,240 --> 00:20:26,760
How could I possibly
overthrow the King?

326
00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:28,520
Perhaps with the help
<font color="

327
00:20:30,120 --> 00:20:34,160
You still have contact with his man
Chapuys, do you not?

328
00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:35,840
I hear he plans to return.

329
00:20:35,840 --> 00:20:38,360
Oh, dear. He'll have to find
somewhere else to have his dinner.

330
00:20:38,360 --> 00:20:40,280
Why do we concern ourselves
with Chapuys?

331
00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:41,800
It is much worse than that,

332
00:20:41,800 --> 00:20:44,640
<font color="
in your garden at Austin Friars,

333
00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:46,280
the day the King met his daughter.

334
00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:48,720
You had secret dealings
with Katherine.

335
00:20:48,720 --> 00:20:50,640
Dealings to do with Mary.

336
00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:53,320
And that evening, you confessed
as much to all present.

337
00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:56,960
Even if I did,

338
00:20:56,960 --> 00:21:00,200
<font color="
a long time, Riche.

339
00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:02,440
What stopped you from speaking out?

340
00:21:04,000 --> 00:21:07,280
I'll tell you what - advantage.

341
00:21:07,280 --> 00:21:11,600
Your own advantage kept you mute
until advantage was greater

342
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:13,760
on the other side.
What promise have I made...

343
00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:15,040
Look at me!

344

<font color="
Riche, that I have not kept?

345
00:21:22,680 --> 00:21:25,280
And what promises
have you made to me?

346
00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:28,000
You should not speak of promises!

347
00:21:28,000 --> 00:21:31,760
The King hates a man
who breaks his word.

348
00:21:31,760 --> 00:21:36,280
You said you would kill
the pretender Reginald Pole.

350
00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:08,640
The King's so-called marriage.

351
00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:13,360
His Majesty says
you know more of the matter

352
00:22:13,360 --> 00:22:16,160
than any man except himself.

353
00:22:16,160 --> 00:22:19,240
You are to give a full account.
Omit nothing.

354
00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:22,840
From your first negotiations
<font color="

355
00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:25,680
to the night of
the supposed marriage.

356
00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:30,880
You must set forth all you heard
of the lady's pre-contract,

357
00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:35,640
and record faithfully what you know
of the King's dislike of

358
00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:38,280
and unwillingness to the marriage.

359
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:42,880
You must write the truth
<font color="

360
00:22:44,280 --> 00:22:46,440
You will be required
to take an oath.

361
00:22:46,440 --> 00:22:48,120
I have a son and nephew.

362
00:22:48,120 --> 00:22:51,520
My nephew has heirs,
all of whom I wish to preserve.

363
00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:52,720
Why would I refuse?

364
00:22:52,720 --> 00:22:55,720
I would also take an oath that I am
a true servant of the King.

365
00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:57,880
<font color="

366
00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:01,400
that my word should hold good in the
one matter, but not in the other?

367
00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:04,320
Well, you are a dying man.

368
00:23:05,720 --> 00:23:07,960
They are generally known not to lie.

369
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:11,840
Leave it with me, my Lord Bishop.

370
00:23:11,840 --> 00:23:13,480
Now kick yourself out.

371
00:23:27,120 --> 00:23:29,000
Sir...
<font color="

372
00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:38,720
Norfolk wants to hang you at Tyburn
like a common thief,

373
00:23:38,720 --> 00:23:41,360
to pull your bowels out.

374
00:23:41,360 --> 00:23:46,040
He wants you to suffer the most
painful death the law affords.

375
00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:49,520
He is set on it.
You seem set on it yourself.

376
00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:52,520
No, in no way, sir.

377
00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:54,240
<font color="

378
00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:01,080
I can do no other than I do...

379
00:24:02,480 --> 00:24:03,920
..I assure you.

380
00:24:05,680 --> 00:24:09,880
But I want to see you
treated with honour.

381
00:24:09,880 --> 00:24:11,840
If needs be,
I shall petition the King...

382
00:24:11,840 --> 00:24:13,840
Christ, Call-Me, stand up straight.

383
00:24:15,080 --> 00:24:18,400
How do you think you'll fare
<font color="

384
00:24:18,400 --> 00:24:21,280
if you're cringing and whining
in the presence of a man

385
00:24:21,280 --> 00:24:24,800
whom you yourself say is doomed?

386
00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:26,600
Well, I trust not, sir.

387
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:33,000
The King tells me that
you could write to him.

388
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:36,360
Do it tonight.

389
00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:11,600
<font color="

390

I feel cast off.

392
00:25:31,120 --> 00:25:32,680
But still I love him.

393
00:26:01,240 --> 00:26:03,160
THUNDER RUMBLES

394
00:26:13,760 --> 00:26:15,560
HEAVY BREATHING

395
00:26:18,960 --> 00:26:20,600
To bear the sword!

396
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:27,240
HE PANTS

397
00:27:04,040 --> 00:27:06,440
I have no new instructions, sir.

00:27:09,160 --> 00:27:11,640
<font color="

399
00:27:12,840 --> 00:27:14,360
That's a hopeful sign.

400
00:27:22,360 --> 00:27:24,240
It's Cranmer's letter to the King.

401
00:27:38,080 --> 00:27:39,800
HE CLEARS THROAT

402
00:27:44,440 --> 00:27:47,800
"He that was so advanced

"diligence, faithfulness,

"I loved him as my friend,

00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:19,800
Here it comes, on the one hand,
on the other.

410
00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:22,400
"..but now, if he be a traitor,

411
00:28:22,400 --> 00:28:26,720
"I am sorry that I ever loved
or trusted him."

412
00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:31,120
Huh.

413
00:28:31,120 --> 00:28:34,560
"But yet again, I am very sorrowful.

00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:39,840
"Who will Your Majesty trust

415
00:28:45,920 --> 00:28:47,640
It was better than I expected.

416
00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:51,000
He should have got himself
to the King's presence.

417
00:28:53,640 --> 00:28:56,200
If the Archbishop were in peril of
his life, would you have stood by?

418
00:28:56,200 --> 00:28:57,960
I don't think you would have.

419
00:29:01,080 --> 00:29:03,720
The King has permitted me
<font color="

420
00:29:03,720 --> 00:29:07,240
which is...another hopeful sign.

421
00:29:11,640 --> 00:29:13,960
Will you make sure that gets to him?

422
00:29:23,640 --> 00:29:28,120
Call-Me has moved into
Austin Friars.

423
00:29:31,160 --> 00:29:33,920
The King has ordered him
to dissolve the household.

424
00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:50,920
Don't give up, Rafe.

425
00:29:50,920 --> 00:29:54,080
Don't give up.
<font color="

426
00:29:54,080 --> 00:29:58,120
We hold on. We hold on.

427
00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:00,960
Hmm?

428
00:30:10,160 --> 00:30:13,720
Your household falls
a little short of 3,000 persons,

429
00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:15,640
does it not?

430
00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:17,640
It is the household of a prince.

431
00:30:17,640 --> 00:30:21,320
3,000? With that number,
I'd be bankrupt.

<font color="

433
00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:26,320
to take his son into my service.

434
00:30:26,320 --> 00:30:27,680
I take who I can.

435
00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:31,880
For the most part,
their fathers pay their keep,

436
00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:34,160
so you cannot say
that I employ them.

437
00:30:34,160 --> 00:30:37,320
You talk as if they were all
<font color="

438
00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:40,760
but it is well known that
you take in runaway apprentices,

439
00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:42,000
roisterers, ruffians.

440
00:30:42,000 --> 00:30:46,840
Roaring boys,
such as Richard Riche here was once,

441
00:30:46,840 --> 00:30:48,800
in days he would rather forget.

442
00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:51,360
Yeah, I don't deny
I give a second life to those

00:30:51,360 --> 00:30:54,840

444
00:30:54,840 --> 00:30:58,000
Any chancer has a chance with me.

445
00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:00,760
NORFOLK LAUGHS

446
00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:08,240
You owned some, erm,
some 300 handguns.

447
00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:10,120
I have the inventories
for Austin Friars here.

448
00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:16,120
300 handguns, 400 pikes,
<font color="

449
00:31:16,120 --> 00:31:19,560
It's... It's enough for an army.

450
00:31:19,560 --> 00:31:24,440
And I have heard you say -
and Wriothesley will bear me out -

451
00:31:24,440 --> 00:31:27,160
that you had a bodyguard of 300
that would come to your whistle

452
00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:29,880
day or night.

453
00:31:29,880 --> 00:31:31,120
Wriothesley?

454
00:31:32,400 --> 00:31:34,920
It is true.
<font color="

455
00:31:34,920 --> 00:31:37,400
When the northern rebels were up,

456
00:31:37,400 --> 00:31:42,520
I felt ashamed that I could not
turn out enough men of mine own.

457
00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:46,160
So, like any loyal subject
who has means,

458
00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:48,400
I augmented my resources.

459
00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:52,040
Oh, you prate of loyalty!

461
00:31:57,480 --> 00:31:59,280
I, a traitor.

462
00:31:59,280 --> 00:32:01,960
Look to the Poles and Courtenays
for treason, my lord.

463
00:32:01,960 --> 00:32:05,600
Not to me, who owe everything I have
to the King.

464
00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:08,040
Look to those who think
it's their natural right

<font color="

466
00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:15,240
To those who think that his family's
rule is a mere interruption

467
00:32:15,240 --> 00:32:16,480
to their own.

468
00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:21,400
BELL TOLLS

469
00:32:26,240 --> 00:32:27,480
You people.

470
00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:31,200
What will you do without me?

471
00:32:42,280 --> 00:32:44,240
You will read the lines as written,

472
00:32:44,240 --> 00:32:46,120
but you will never

473
00:32:47,560 --> 00:32:50,000
The French ambassador

474
00:32:50,000 --> 00:32:52,400
and Chapuys too, if he returns.

475
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:55,160
Within a year,

476
00:32:55,160 --> 00:33:00,960
the King will be fighting the Scots,
or the French, or likely both,

477
00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:02,560
and he will bankrupt us.

478
00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:10,760
None of you - none of you -
<font color="

479
00:33:13,240 --> 00:33:15,320
And the King will quarrel with you,
All of you.

480
00:33:15,320 --> 00:33:17,600
You'll quarrel with each other.

481
00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:20,600
In a year's time,
if you sacrifice me,

482
00:33:20,600 --> 00:33:25,360
you'll have neither honest coin
or honest minister.

483
00:33:28,640 --> 00:33:31,360
But when the hour strikes
<font color="

484
00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:36,400
..you've had the best of it,
haven't you?

485
00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:45,440
What's left is like a sucked
plum stone on the side of a plate.

486
00:33:49,960 --> 00:33:51,600
Lord Cromwell is not well.

487
00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:54,680
We should perhaps pause.

488
00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:57,680
Oh, I think he's fit enough.

489
00:33:57,680 --> 00:34:01,520
<font color="
any pains, which are spared him,

490
00:34:01,520 --> 00:34:05,360
at the King's direction,
even though he is not of noble blood

491
00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:08,160
and deserves no such consideration.

492
00:34:13,240 --> 00:34:15,760
What would we do without you?

493
00:34:15,760 --> 00:34:18,800
What would we do without
your wisdom?

494
00:34:18,800 --> 00:34:21,640
<font color="

495
00:34:21,640 --> 00:34:24,400
Do you think the King
ever loved you?

496
00:34:24,400 --> 00:34:25,960
No.

497
00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:28,880
To him, you were an instrument,
a device.

498
00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:33,440
We are no more to him
than an engine of war or a dog.

499
00:34:34,720 --> 00:34:37,560
A dog that has served him
<font color="

500
00:34:38,800 --> 00:34:41,240
And what do you do with a dog
at the end of the season?

501
00:34:44,240 --> 00:34:45,720
You hang it.

502
00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:22,400
What has happened to the Queen?

503
00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:26,160
Er, the Lady of Cleves
has already left the court.

504
00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:32,600
The King has sent her to Richmond,
<font color="

505
00:35:34,120 --> 00:35:36,000
But, of course, he will not.

506
00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:44,560
No. When he turns his face from you,
he rarely turns back.

507
00:35:44,560 --> 00:35:46,640
Hmm.

508
00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:51,200
Getting the wife used to be
one of my tasks.

509
00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:53,200
It falls to you now, does it?

510
00:35:56,520 --> 00:35:59,000
I suppose it would be Norfolk's
<font color="

Giddy little creature.

512
00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:03,960
Very pleased with her great fortune.

513
00:36:05,840 --> 00:36:10,000
Still, it's not for me
to question the King's choice.

514
00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:11,920
If you bear that in mind,
you'll go far.

515
00:36:11,920 --> 00:36:15,240
Of course she's giddy at that age.

516
00:36:15,240 --> 00:36:17,000
You wouldn't want her

I fear it's against us all.

I am a man of honour.
I mean I am a man of my word.

So many words.

521
00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:00,960
You do everything.
You have everything.

522
00:37:04,600 --> 00:37:06,000

My Lord of Suffolk.

527

Is she behind there?

The other one?

529
00:37:55,560 --> 00:37:57,280
Boleyn?

530
00:37:57,280 --> 00:38:01,520
No, my lord. She lies at rest

00:38:01,520 --> 00:38:04,600
As for the painting,
yes, I painted her out.

532
00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:09,600
I changed the hair and the eyes.

533
00:38:09,600 --> 00:38:10,960
Personally?

534
00:38:10,960 --> 00:38:12,440
No, my lord.

535
00:38:13,720 --> 00:38:15,640
I had a professional do it.

536
00:38:18,560 --> 00:38:22,640
Look here, Crumb...
this is my advice.

00:38:31,840 --> 00:38:33,800
bring you back to true religion.

540
00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:36,080
He'd like that, wouldn't he?

541
00:38:36,080 --> 00:38:41,240

Well, that was my idea,

I wouldn't rob a house
with the King.

553
00:39:17,840 --> 00:39:21,520
You'd say to him, "Stand there.

"Whistle if the watch comes."

555
00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:27,400

He'd be breaching his own peace,

No. You may omit the accounting

The Earl is reconciled.
He has let the cardinal go.

When Henry dies and comes
to judgment, he will answer for me.

627
