Inside The Body of Henry VIII investigates the life of one of England’s most famous monarchs.
Medical experts and historians use reconstructions, computer graphics, and medical records from the time to try and piece together what transformed Henry from one of the most desired men of the time into the overweight monster he ended up.
Did he suffer from syphilis? Or did he actually die of scurvy? Did he have diabetes, or was his favourite sport – jousting – to blame for his medical problems in later life?
