A Different Side to King Henry VIII?
Our much maligned Tudor monarch, Henry VIII, is getting a lot of coverage at the moment, with international superstar actor Damian Lewis taking on the role in the superb BBC version of Hilary Mantel's book, Wolf Hall. It seems he may have had more in common with Prince Charles than had previously been thought, with the recent revelation that he may have been a keen gardener after receiving one of the earliest known gardening books, Ruralia Commoda. No-one really knows if he talked to his veg to encourage it to grow, but I'm sure anyone caught sniggering if he did would have suffered for that momentary lapse.
