Sex Life of Henry VIII
Tracy Borman joins Kate to discuss the sex life of Henry VIII.
When we think of Henry VIII we think of a big, blood thirsty tyrant.
But was there more to this caricature of a king then we give him credit for? Joining Kate today to help us get to know this man better is the fantastic Tracy Borman, author of Henry VIII and the men who made him.
Why did Henry love his daily horoscopes? How did his hypochondria affect his sex life? And was he in, in fact, a bit of a prude?
This episode was edited and produced by Stuart Beckwith. The senior producer was Charlotte Long.
All music from Epidemic Sounds.
