Matt Roush says...
You don’t have to go to the Broadway and touring musical Six—though you should—for another look at the turmoil in the 16th-century court of Henry VIII. A three-part docuseries digs into the history of the family that infamously entered the picture through Henry’s second wife, Anne Boleyn, for whom he severed tied with the Catholic Church before eventually beheading her for trumped-up treason. (He earlier took her sister Mary as a mistress.) The series features interviews with historians and scholars, peppered with dramatizations, many filmed at the Boleyns’ ancestral home, Hever Castle.
