The Pope threatens excommunication. Henry declares himself the Supreme Head of the Church of England. Hearing Henry roar in Hindi in this episode is a treat.

The series opens with the aging King Henry lamenting his lack of a male heir. He becomes smitten with the young, witty Anne Boleyn, setting the stage for the downfall of his wife, Catherine.

Anne Boleyn becomes pregnant, forcing Henry to break from Rome. The dubbing team does justice to the religious temper tantrums.
