This
historical drama was made in the wake of the successful
BBC TV series and used the same star, Keith
Michell.
Young Henryís jousting tournament was filmed at the
unmistakably Jacobean Hatfield
House, Hatfield, Hertfordshire
(seen in many films, including Sally
Potter's Orlando,
Lara Croft:
Tomb Raider and Greystoke:
the Legend of Tarzan, Lord of the Apes).
Catherine Howard is arrested, supposedly at 'Hamton
Court', but the scene is filmed at Eton
College, Windsor,
Berkshire,
and the unfortunate queen is executed in the School
Quad (seen in The
Madness of King George and Chariots
of Fire).
Filming also took place at Woburn Abbey, home
of the Duke of Bedford, eight and a half miles northwest
of Dunstable on the A4012 (rail: Leighton Buzzard or
Bletchley) and Allington Castle, a couple of
miles north of Maidstone in Kent (rail: Maidstone).
