HENRY IX (British comedy)

A classic story of a forty-something man suffering a mid-life crisis and looking to escape from his current situation - the twist being that this forty-something man also happens to be the King of England (or more accurately Great Britain and the Commonwealth). Set in the entirely fictional, but contemporary court of King Henry IX, the series sees Henry (Charles Edwards) struggle to make changes to his life in the face of centuries of tradition and a Royal household who are fairly sure they have his - and if not, certainly have their own - best interests at heart. Co-starring Sally Phillips, Annette Crosbie, Don Warrington, and Colin Salmon. (3 EPS, 2017)
