In this first of a series of 3 episodes, recorded live, discussing the factors going on in Rome which effected Henry VIII's ultimately failed attempt to secure a divorce from his first wife Katherine of Aragon, we focus on the events which led up to Imperial troops at the walls of Rome, bent on violence.
As well as out main topic for today we also have the 3-minute explainer - why is Richard III so popular? and AI attempts to recreate historical moments.
