I’m back with my latest instalment in the “Questions about Anne Boleyn” series of videos. Sweating sickness was a strange illness which affected England in five outbreaks between 1485 and 1551.

The latest instalment in my video series “Questions about Anne Boleyn” looks at the question “Was Anne Boleyn charged with witchcraft?” something that rears its ugly head every May when I talk about the indictments of charges laid against her, Anne’s trial and her execution.
