Corrected entry: In episode 18, as Henry is lying on the table after the jousting accident, the camera pans up and reveals a fluer de lis on Henry's breastplate. The fluer de lis is/was the symbol of the French King and it is highly unlikely that it would be so prominently displayed on the English king's armor.

Revealing mistake: In Episode 2 during the scene when the king's son is born, it appears that the baby has been born for less than a few minutes, but when he is held up it is plain to see that his navel has healed instead of being freshly cut As It Should Be after the birth. (00:31:50)
King Henry viii: You think you know a story, but you only know how it ends. To get to the heart of the story, you have to go back to the beginning.
Question: Why does everyone call Jonathan R-M 'Harry'? Isn't he Henry VIII?
Answer: While Harry can be a given name, it is also a standard "informal" version of the name Henry. For example, in the UK Royal Family, the younger son of Prince Charles, officially named Prince Henry, is commonly referred to as Prince Harry.
