EPISODE DESCRIPTION
The truth about Henry VIII's final resting place can be a surprise to many.
Even 500 years after his death, his larger than life character endures.
So,
Where is the magnificent tomb?
Well, nowhere. Or more accurately, parts of it are spread between uses elsewhere and displays in museums.

Then there is the question,
Why is he buried with Jane Seymour?

And finally, and the focus for this video,
Why was his final resting place left unmarked for so long and why his body never moved?

I take you through the logic behind why Henry remained in what he assumed would be a temporary resting place and where the sarcophagus he had intended for himself, the one confiscated from Thomas Wolsey, is now.

I also go into why he was buried with Jane Seymour, going beyond simply 'she was his favourite' hypothesis.
