    • Trivia
      In one scene Thomas Boleyn tells Anne about the Seymour family. He would not have needed to because Anne and Jane were.second cousins through their mothers.
    • Goofs
      After Henry's jousting accident, dried blood can be seen on his face that runs from his temple down his cheek. That pattern only makes sense if he were sitting upright; however, he is flat on his back and unconscious, so the blood should have run from his temple towards the back of his head.
    • Quotes

      Anne Boleyn: Because the love I bear you is so great, it broke my heart to see you loved others.
