Lucy talks about the impact of Anne Boleyn on Henry VIII's affections, uncovering private moments that were reported by eyewitnesses or recorded in historical documents. The key moments during their marriage are recreated, as Anne falls from favour in court and is eventually executed, despite protestations of innocence regarding the rumours of her infidelity. As soon as Anne is dead, Henry marries Jane Seymour, who fulfils her most important role as Queen - giving birth to the healthy son that Henry has craved for so long
