I told her that when I'd first got an HD tv with inbuilt freeview just over a decade ago, I was channel hopping to see what these channels were and I found ITV4 which had Ray Winstone as Henry VIII.

I told her that he was great and recited a couple of lines in Winstone's accent:

"Anne. You slaaaaaaagggggg. How could ya do this me?"

"I'm not shagging that, Cromwell, you caaaaant."

Him and Sid James were the best every Henry VIIIs.

Everyone else in Wolf Hall were perfect - Mark Rylance as Cromwell, Anton Lester as Thomas More. But they should have had Winstone as Henry.
