Dr Suzannah Lipscomb: Why does Tudor history still form a key part of British national identity?

https://www.ljmu.ac.uk/about-us/news/... When it comes to Tudor history, you really couldn't make it up: you’ve got a much married king in search of a male heir (and a spare), two wives who lost their heads, a murderous reign of religious repression, and a virgin queen. Perhaps that’s why over four hundred years after the end of the Tudor period, King Henry VIII and the heirs to his throne continue to fascinate us today. But is there more to this dynasty than just their enduring notoriety? Award-winning historian and broadcaster, Dr Suzannah Lipscomb believes there is, and as part of the University’s annual National Identity Lecture Series, she outlined why she thinks the Tudors are Britain’s most significant royal dynasty.
