I think the question of her illegitimacy has to do with the fact that he could have still been legally married to Katherine of Aragon when he married Anne. When the Pope wouldn't declare the marriage void, he took over the English church and declared it void himself. Many didn't see that as a

Dopes anyone know for sure, is the main fabric of this dress embroidered, or voided velvet or satin, or brocade, or what? Not the embroidered gardes, but the ground fabric. I LOVE that dress. It's just about the most truly royal gown I can think of. MaggiRos --- Kimiko Small [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hi all I'm unable to track down an online copy of Mr Starkey's article in the British TV paper Radio Times, so thought it would be useful to give more info on what he actually wrote. He was flown over to Lithuania to watch filming - he's a nippy sweety historian who is pretty good at lecturing
