04x03 - Something for You

One two three... One two three...

One two three...

One two three...
One two three... Turn...

Lord, turn!

My Lady! This way! No,
no, no, no, no, no.

I will show you.

Comme ça! You see?

Elegant;

everything is elegant.

Beautiful!

Everything that is not
elegant must be beautiful.

Your Majesty.

I haven't seen you for
a good while. I'm sorry.

I did not know
the reason for it.

No one told me.

I was unwell.

But now I am better.

Thank God.

I trust you found something
to amuse yourself

while I was away?

I missed Your Majesty so much.

I hope they gave you my gifts.

Your gifts are not you.

My Lord Surrey.

Majesty.

You are a blood
relative of my wife.

For that reason, and because you so
distinguished yourself in France,

I've decided to make you a Knight
of the Order of the Garter.

Does it please you?

I am deeply grateful,
Your Majesty.

My Lord Surrey.

Majesty.

Ah, I have something for you.

Thank you. It's beautiful.

So are you.

I am going away tomorrow,
for a few days.

But tonight I will visit
to your bedchamber.

For nothing would please me more

than for you to conceive my child.

Your Majesty, good morning.

My Lord Bishop.

Your Majesty, these poor,
suffering subjects,

they have begged leave to receive

Your Majesty's gift of grace.

So if Your Majesty might consent
to lay your hands upon them?

Your Majesty. Please.
Please. Your Majesty.

By the Grace of God,
I command you to be healed.

By the Grace of God,

I command you to be healed.

Please, Your Majesty.

By the Grace of God,
I command you to be healed.

Please, Your Majesty. Please.

By the Grace of God,
I command you to be healed.

Your Majesty. Your Majesty.

By the Grace of God,

I command you to be healed.

God bless you, Your Majesty.
Thank you, Your Majesty.

Oh, thank you.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

Oh, thank you, Your Majesty.
Thank you, Your Majesty.

Oh, thank you, Your Majesty.
Thank you. Oh, thank you.

Thank you, Your Majesty!

God bless you, Your Majesty!

Hever Castle
Residence of Anne of Cleves

Bravo, my Lady. Bravo!

- Your Majesty.
- Majesty.

Your Majesty.

Did I surprise you?

Good.

- Lady Elizabeth.
- Your Grace.

I have a gift for you.

How is your Latin?

I enjoy learning it,
thank you, Your Majesty.

Mr Grindle, the tutor you gave me,

is an excellent teacher.

This book is by the
Roman historian Tacitus.

Now you may find it
difficult to read

but the effort
will be worthwhile.

For without knowledge,
life is not worth having.

Thank you so much, Your Majesty.

I am very grateful and thank God
every night for your good health

and trust you will be our
good King, and father,

a long time.

Madam.

I have come for supper.

I hope that doesn't
inconvenience you.

I think we may find something
in the larder, Your Majesty.

Good.

Your formal installation
into the Order

will take place soon,
my Lord Surrey.

The King's grace has commanded
me to prepare you for the event,

which I am happy
and willing to do.

I am sure your lordship is
aware of the great significance

attached to the Order by His
Majesty and the great honor

that he conveys upon you
by electing you to it.

As you know, the Order
comprises of twenty-five

noble and valiant knights
and their sovereign.

There is no greater
honor in England.

Your lordship has no need
to sell the Order to me.

How long have you
belonged to the Order?

I was elected earlier this year.

A few months, oh.

My father and four
generations of my family

have already belonged to it.

Shall we eat?

Where do you suppose
the King has gone?

I don't know, Your Majesty.

They tell me there's
a full moon tomorrow

and we shall all
behave like lunatics.

For some, the moon
is the planet of love.

I want to see him again.

As you wish.

Perhaps I could bring
him to my room.

Then I could wait outside,
in case anyone should come.

I only urge Your Majesty
to be careful when you...

What, Lady Rochford?

Don't you think I know
how to meddle with a man

without conceiving a child?

Your Majesty should be
proud of your daughters.

Both of them.

They do you a great credit.

The Lady Mary is very serious
and religious but very clever.

Like some women,
she likes to hide her intelligence.

But the Lady Elizabeth - she
cannot hide her intelligence.

She will be a great lady,
I think...

if God so wills it.

Your Majesty.

I have something which I should
like to return to Your Majesty.

My wedding ring.

I should like you to
break it into pieces,

as a thing of no value.

Katherine? Sweetheart?

Yes, Thomas?

Do you like our
meeting like this?

Yes.

Do you love me yet?

Let me perceive by some
token that you love me.

Shall I kiss you?

We have kissed before,
Katherine sweet.

It does not mean that you love me.

What else can I show you?

My Lord Surrey,

I am commanded now to
invest you with the Garter,

for you to wear at
your installation.

"Honni soit qui mal y pense."
"Evil be to him who evil thinks."

Sir.

The most friendly
Companions of this Order,

denominated from the Garter,

have admitted you, their friend,
brother, and companion,

in faithful testimony of which
they impart and give you

the Garter, which God grant that you,
deservedly receiving it,

may rightly wear and use
to the Glory of God.

Thank you, my friends,

brothers,

and companions.

Your Grace.

You know I am
very grateful to you

for raising no objection to
the annulment of our marriage.

It runs rather counter to
my experience of women.

Your Majesty, I can truly say

that I wish in all things
to please you as my Lord,

to bear testament to your
good treatment of me,

and to stay in this country
that I already love as my own.

Do you know what the French
Ambassador wrote about you?

We intercepted his letter.

He said that our people
much regretted our divorce,

and that in a short time
you had won their love,

and that they esteemed you
as one of the most sweet,

gracious, and humane
queens they had ever had.

You have another queen now.

Yes.

I like her.

She is beautiful, of course.

And very young. Full of life.
You must adore her.

My Lady!

My Lady!

My Lady...

You did your duty.

He's insufferable.

He thinks us all his inferiors.

Unfortunately,
we did him the great favor

of making a member of
his family the Queen.

What is made can sometimes be unmade,
like a bed.

What chance is there?
The King is besotted by her.

- Everyone knows that.
- That may change.

She seems to me nothing but
a frivolous and stupid girl.

In any case,

I want you to teach the
Earl a lesson in humility.

I will be called a she-wolf

by no man, nor should you allow

the slanders against our
family to go unpunished.

Surely, my dear husband,

you could arrange for some
misfortune to befall him?

Hello, my friends!

Jesus Christ!

Not quite!

As you see, I have been
received into the most noble,

most prestigious
Order of the Garter.

And here indeed is the garter!
"Honni soit qui mal y pense."

"Evil to him who evil thinks!"

It's a good motto.
I agree with it.

Ale, please!

My responsibilities to the Order

have already made me
dreadfully thirsty.

- Very fine, my Lord!
- Thank you.

How in God's name did you
afford all this, my Lord?

I have often had no money,
but I have never been poor.

Wench! How would you like
to suck the cock of a man

who's a member of the
Order of the Garter?

What would your friends say?

They would tell me not to
swallow stories like that.

Your hand!

It is...

- all naked.
- Ooh.

There, there, there.
It is dressed.

Thank you, ma'am.

Come here.

More ale. Drink up,
my friend. Drink up.

My Lords,
we must before long agree

on these plans for our much-
delayed progress to the North.

We shall take a large retinue,
including men-at-arms,

since we mean especially
to visit those parts

of our realm which, not long ago,

However, this time
we expect the people,

being pardoned by our grace,
to make further submissions

in acknowledgments of
their past depravities.

My Lady.

It is also our intention to
invite James, King of Scots,

to meet with us at
York in September.

Your Majesty.

- Your Majesty.
- Your Majesty.

The King's in Council!

Arrange for the conveyance of
our best tapestries and plates.

Yes, Your Majesty...

I apologize, Your Majesty.

Come.

- Katherine, you silly-
- I have missed my bleeding.

I believe I am with child.

My sweet sweetheart...

I had to tell Your Majesty.
I am sorry I made you angry.

I'm not angry. How could I
be any bit angry? God forbid.

Katherine, listen to me,
listen to me. Listen to me.

For the sake of our child,
please, girl,

don't excite yourself.
Go and lay down.

Rest, and I will come and
see you very, very soon.

God bless you.

Go.

My beautiful young Queen. Go.

How is my father?

The King, having recovered
from his recent illness,

seems in much better humor,
my Lady.

He is planning to make a progress

to the North of England.

A great deal of work
is already instigated.

They say that embroiderers
are working on furniture

and tapestries using
copes and ornaments

stripped from the churches, alas.

Excellency.

Thank you, Madam.

There is another reason why
the King's humor is improved.

There are rumors. The Queen
is thought to be with child.

I'm sure His Majesty
would be overjoyed

if she produced a Duke of York.

On the other hand,

if she does not,
then the succession may,

in fact, remain an open question.

What do you mean?

Surely Edward is first in line?
Who could doubt it?

Lady Mary,

certain important people
at court have told me

they feel a "scruple"
Of conscience

over the fact that
Prince Edward's mother,

Queen Jane, was never
ever formally crowned,

unlike your own mother,
Queen Catherine.

So the rumor also goes,
that the King intends to crown

his new Queen at York,
so if she has a son

no one can question his
legitimacy or right to the throne.

But if she does
not have a son...

Exactly. It would strengthen
your own claim to the crown.

Which is why these certain
people at court have assured me

how they pray, pray,
not only for the overthrow

of vile reformers like Hertford,
but for the day and the hour

that Your Grace
succeeds to the throne.

Only if God wills it,
Excellency.

Only if God wills it.

But He must will it, Lady Mary.

For how else will this country
ever be restored to obedience

and to faith? Otherwise,
as things are,

it will go to the devil.

Tell me more about the progress.

Where shall we go?

First to Hatfield,

then to Dunstable,
Ampthill, and Grafton,

hunting and hawking along the way.

Then to Stamford,
and then Lincoln,

and so on to Boston and Yorkshire.

And you'll have to have
plenty of new dresses made,

for there will be many great
occasions and banquets along the way,

and great crowds will come
to see your magnificence.


I'm so excited.
All of this seems to me

still like a dream,
from which I hope never to wake!

Will you come to my
bedchamber tonight?

No, sweetheart.
It's too dangerous.

Not while you're with child.

What's the matter?
You are with child?

I was mistaken.

I... I miss...

My Lady?

My Lady?

Master Culpepper,

I heartily recommend
me unto you...

Praying you send me
word how that you do.

I would you were with
me now that you might

see what pain I take
in writing to you.

"I heard that you were sick.
And never longed so much

for anything as to see you.
It makes my heart die

to think I can't always
be in your company."

It makes my heart die

to think I cannot always
be in your company. Yours...

- Yours as long as life endures,
- Katherine.

It's not her fault.
She's so young.

No. That is her fault.

You play well.

You didn't used to, I remember.

And I never used to drink wine,
or play music.

Now I do all those things...

and I like to do it.
I am free, and I like to do it.

May I come to your bed tonight?

I'm here now.
I don't want your heart to die.

You feel so sweet.

My sweet little fool.

I love you.

You mustn't... you know?

I won't.

I promise.

Your Majesty,

Lady Bryan.

Your Majesty. My Lord.

Here is your son, Prince Edward.

Your Majesty. Uncle.

Your Grace.

Edward.

I trust you are well looked after

and everybody is kind to you.

Yes, sir.

I have a gift for you.

Thank you, Your Majesty.

I have to go away
from London for a while.

But your uncle will stay here.

He is to be kept warm and
well at Windsor, Lady Bryan.

And if, heaven forbid,
you should fall ill,

dose him with this.
It's my own concoction.

I can see your mother in you.

Do you know who she was?

This is her.

And this is her thimble.

You're a good boy.

Your sword, sir.

Your Majesty.

My Lady, the King is here.

Katherine, I've come
to tell you that we are

leaving Whitehall
in two days time.

I trust you are prepared.

Yes, Your Majesty.

Oh, I've also come to tell you,

the Lady Mary will
be accompanying us.

Why?

Must she come?

Obviously you don't understand.

Mary is a much-loved
figure in the North,

where we mean to
impress our subjects.

The decision has
nothing to do with you.

I'm sorry I was not with child.

I am sure I can be.

Lift it!

Keep moving!

- Gather it up!
- Hay up!

Boy!

Keep in line! Fall in!

You there!

Keep moving! Keep up!

There's the King!

- The King!
- Lady Mary and the King!

You see how much they love us?

These are the real
people of England.

They love their King.

His Grace, Bishop Gardiner.

My Lord. I trust I
am not disturbing you.

I know you bear a heavy burden,
in His Majesty's absence.

Not at all, Your Grace.
You are most welcome.

- How goes the King's progress?
- Most excellently.

He has been warmly and
graciously received

everywhere he goes.
And he has had good sport.

Just last week he
and his companions

sh*t over four hundred
deer in two days.

They're now on their
way to Lincoln.

I am very glad to hear His
Majesty is in such good spirits.

I suppose...

he would number among his
companions the Earl of Surrey.

Yes, for certain.

- My Lord.
- Why?

I have received more reports
of the Earl's behavior.

It seems that,
after his investiture

into the Order of the Garter,
he appeared in a tavern

in his regalia - and made
great fun of the Order

and of those belonging to it.

Even before bawds and pimps.

And these are sworn
statements of his behavior?

They are, my Lord.
Are you going to investigate further?

Yes, I will.

I am most grateful to Your
Grace for this information.

I trust that someday
you will use it.

For I am as convinced as I can be

that Surrey and his crew
flout the fasting laws

and are fanatic Lutherans
and Sacramentarians

for which damnable heresies

they ought to be
b*rned at Smithfield.

Your Grace.

Left, left, right, left,
right, left, right...

{an8}Cathedral City of Lincoln

Henry, by the Grace of God,

King of England,
Ireland, and France;

also God's High Minister here,
Head of His Church

and soul of the whole kingdom.

We beseech you in all humility

to animate, rule,
and save your people.

And we further pray God,
of his infinite mercy,

that he will bless and
maintain in faith,

in love, and in fecundity

Queen Katherine and your
blessed daughter, Lady Mary.

Amen.

Amen.

Your Majesty.

People of Lincoln.

Do I need to remind you many
of you here and about rose up

in an unnatural and unlawful
rebellion against your King,

who you, by the laws of God,

are bound to obey.

Well, today we come here for
an altogether different reason.

Today we come here on a
Pilgrimage of Forgiveness.

We are here to pardon all
our subjects for their

past sins and disobedience.

And since we have seen
how much you love us,

and seen all your tokens
and signs of loyalty,

with a free heart we forgive you.

Here is Your
Majesty's bedchamber.

Where does this go?

To the stool chamber.

And that?

To the backstairs.

Come on! I want to see.

What's behind here?

His Majesty's bedchamber.

With his servants?

It looks bad,
doesn't it, Thomas?

I have seen it better, Your Majesty.
But I'll bathe it.

I wanted to visit
the Queen tonight.

She looked so pure and beautiful
in the cathedral today.

Don't you think?

You were both magnificent.

And the people adored and
worshipped Your Majesty,

such as I have never
seen the like.

Do you think the
King's asleep yet?

He must be late.

- It's almost midnight.
- Oh! Where is he?

He has gone to sleep.

Go and fetch him. Hurry!

Yes, my Lady.

Help me change out of this.

- Who's that?
- The night watchman.

Come.

I'll stay out here.

I'll watch outside.

Not in here!

Where then?

In here.

Jesus Christ.
