Just a quick note to let you know that BBC Radio 4 (a radio station in the UK) are doing two different radio series about Henry VIII which you can listen to on the internet via BBC I-Player, even if you don’t live in the UK. You’ll need to listen to them soon, before they remove them.
Hidden Henry – 5 academics discuss aspects of Henry’s character – see http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00kj03k for more information.
The Six Faces of Henry VIII – Ian Hislop analyses six images of Henry VIII to try and figure out what Henry was really like. See http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00kj2dy for details.
Thanks for posting this, I’ll have to check it out!
I’ll be looking forward to listening to these being a Tudor history fanatic.
When will they be on the radio?what dates?
Congrats! I have something for you at The Burton Review!
Have a wonderful day!

Susie, The radio shows are on now, for today anyway.
Tudorrose,
Hidden Henry has just finished but all epsiodes can be listened to by clicking on the link in my blog post – there’s only a day left to listen to “Henry, Medicine and Health” and a few days to listen to “Henry the Scholar”, “Henry the Father”, “Henry the Image Maker” and “Henry the Musician”.
The Six Faces of Henry VIII was broadcast last Monday and can be listened to by going to the link I gave.
Thanks,
Claire
Hi Marie,
