Wolf Hall tonight 9pm on BBC2

and as always reviews and comments tomorrow here and on our main site damian-lewis.com

Anne Boleyn drops a serious clanger tonight when she gives birth to a girl instead of a boy. Cue Henry storming off in a huff while she desperately tries to salvage their relationship, and Cromwell doing everything in his power to stabilise the court. Meanwhile, the Holy Maid of Kent prophesies doom if Henry proceeds with Anne as his queen. It is at this point that Sir Thomas More should have said, “I recant my Catholicism,” but he doesn’t so it’s curtains for him. Wonderful storytelling.
