Henry VIII has become quite stunning in this tv drama. If you are looking for the familiar face you know from the portraits, stop. It's that very handsome young man. This is of course as incorrect as can be but it surely gives the series a nice edge!
As for the episodes: the acting is top-notch and the correctness can be criticised (as always in this genre) but I've seen far worse. You might actually learn a thing or two!
Except for the final scenes (which seem to be taped in a hurry and are totally out-of-line) it's a great show with on par acting. You might even get to know some dull names from history class a bit better. Is it all 100% correct? Of course not. It's drama. But it gives you a nice slice of medieval french court life.
