June 30 - Henry VIII and Catherine Howard's ill-fated northern progress

Things seemed all peachy as King Henry VIII and his fifth wife, Queen Catherine Howard, set off on their progress to the north of England on this day in Tudor history, 30th June 1541. Little did the king know that he'd be stood up by his nephew and that his world would come crashing down on him on his return.
 
In today's video, Claire Ridgway, founder of the Tudor Society, explains the motives behind this huge undertaking, what happened on the progress, and why Henry's life changed so dramatically when he got back.
