Claire Foy - Anne Boleyn's Speech and Execution Wolf Hall

Wolf Hall is a British television serial first broadcast on BBC Two in January 2015. The six-part series is an adaptation of two of Hilary Mantel's novels, Wolf Hall a fictionalised biography documenting the rapid rise to power of Thomas Cromwell in the court of Henry VIII through to the death of Sir Thomas More, followed by Cromwell's success in freeing the king of his marriage to Anne Boleyn. “The most disgusting thing, in my mind, about Anne’s death, is that the charges against her were all lies. It was so pathetic that they had to chop her head off just so Henry could get away with marrying someone else. But she wouldn’t give up. She refused to go to a nunnery, she wouldn’t accept that she was no longer of use to the king, and so they killed her. She was entirely at the behest of this one man. And he did it because he could.” Claire Foy
