As King Henry VIII lies dying, he looks back over his life, the pivot of a rich, rumbustious and romantic period of English history. In spite of his multiple marriages and crowded court, Henry remained essentially lonely. Keith Michell 's critically acclaimed performance shows that underneath the gluttonous, gloating monarch lived a sensitive and sensual man.
