I liked the show, but the portrayal of King Henry was not good. By the time he married his fourth wife he was a fat slob and needed to be portrayed as such. The drama of a fat slob with ulcers by then on most likely both legs would make more drama in trying to find a wife. The repulsion of the man would have created great opportunity. Keeping him slim and desirable made the repulsion of his fourth wife seem a little confusing. I watched it, but by this point I was not enjoying the drama that could have been created by changing him to the repulsive evil king he became.
