Trivia
The invention of moveable type is one of the main reasons Martin Luther's reformation of 1516 was so much more successful than all previous attempts.

Goofs
In this episode and several subsequent ones, Master Mark Smeaton is shown playing a modern violin. The equivalent stringed instrument in Tudor times was the viol, played differently from a violin, and shaped differently. The bow with which is was played was also shaped differently to the one shown here (clearly a modern bow).

Quotes
Mary Tudor: [to Anne] I know of no Queen of England, save my mother. And I will accept no other queen, except my mother. But if the king's *mistress* would intercede with the king on my behalf, I would be grateful.
