Henry VIII's first wife (Catherine of Aragon) was the wife of his elder brother.
Because his brother was dead after the marriage.In the course to maintain the connection with the Spain(Catherine was the princess of the Spain), Henry Ⅶ(Henry Ⅷ's father) let Catherine marry Henry Ⅷ.At that time,he was only 12 years old.
So,Catherine was much elder than Henry.That is why in this teleplay she looks awful.
But she was actually a good woman with capability.
