Hello, and Welcome to the CanuckMom (1) , and Pusher 7 (2) Footnotes page for The Tudors Season 3 Episodes 5-8.
1: I swear I will finish The Witcher…by 31st December 2020.
Edit: Did I actually say that? I guess I actually did.
2: You know who you are…I don’t, but I do know that you want me to finish The Ten Commandments. I swear I will finish The Ten Commandments…by 31st December 2020.
Well, I’ve stuck it on the footnotes page for half a season. It should be pretty hard to sidle out of that commitment. Harder than actually doing the work? I guess we’ll find out just how Henry VIII I am (I am).
Oh, and I think I’ve found an easier way to do this.
That’s it. That’s the introduction to the second half of season 3 footnotes page.

Royal Palace Cul de Sac
2) If you’re interested, easiest to see it on a map, or maybe take a street view tour. Marlborough Road, the only available route between the Mall and the top of Pall Mall features a lot of very high, thick walls, hefty spiky metalwork, impassive blank gates and a corner of St James’ Palace. The Old Stable Yard that leads to Clarence House is not accessible. It’s a neat solution to a high security need in one of the busiest parts of one of the busiest cities in the world, but it means St James’ Palace remains largely obscured.
Pall Mall and The Mall, by the way, got their names from the Stuart royal family sport, which members played on courts set up near those roads, and maybe on the roads themselves. The Hanoverian family sport was Olympic level feuding with your heir and that happened everywhere.

Total Recall
q) Weir, Alison, Henry VIII King and Court p414 (Letters and papers, April 1538, item 696, Thomas Worley to Lady Lisle) I’m having trouble believing there were 40 guys on one side, and they won against the guards, mainly because the incident is reported nowhere else other than this letter from some dude to Lady Lisle, but it’s a primary source and he quotes a lot of detail for the earlier, smaller, incidents of fighting he talks about.

The Foreshadowing
1) If you haven’t been back since I wrote Episode 5’s recap I found some basis for those two fighting incidents I previously dissed as bollocks. It’s from Alison Weir, and she got it in a primary source in the Letters and papers ( April 1538, item 696, Thomas Worley to Lady Lisle). It was Gawen Carrow, not Gawain Carew. He wasn’t killed, he aggressively resisted arrest for something else and might have killed a yeoman, and he was one of Cromwell’s guys. The letter was written April 1538 so it happened then or just before, 5 months after Henry’s isolation period. Also I don’t trust the primary with the whole “40 guys rioting” thing, I haven’t found a reference anywhere else yet, and 40 guys on one side, the rioters win a fight at court and no one else has a note of it? Chapuys was uninterested? May well have happened but I bet it was a hell of a lot smaller.
So, it was later than The Tudors has it, (I came across it while researching something for this week) but it’s got a popular historian and primary source backing (with an awful lot of asterisks) so score one for The Tudors and Alison Weir.
