Wolf Hallreaches its inevitable conclusion, as Anne Boleyn fails to save herself, while Thomas Cromwell watches her fate, knowing one day it will most likely be his own.
In our penultimate episode of Wolf Hall, Cromwell changes the course of history twice, once when his desire to see Jane Seymour has unexpected consequences, and once when Henry VIII dies.
As Wolf Hall reaches its midpoint, Thomas Cromwell hooks himself to a rising star, as Katherine of Aragon is deposed and Anne Boleyn ascends the throne.
Welcome to Wolf Hall, the world of 16th-century politics and intrigue. It is 1529, and the issue of Herny VIII's first marriage is coming to a head. As the opening placard tells us, the king is not inclined to forgive.
