Lucy begins by demolishing one of the founding myths about the English Reformation: far from being a ready ally of Martin Luther's Protestant revolution, Henry remained a Catholic to his death.

In reality, it was Henry's wife Anne Boleyn and his fixer Thomas Cromwell who championed the Protestant cause.
