Hah, I bet you thought that it's impossible for anyone to spot a mistake in just 45 words, but here's two:
1) Didn't the Pope make Henry Defender of the Faith before he split, then Henry kept the title anyway?
2) Shouldn't the last line be "Wives' fates:..."?
Okay, enough pernickety pedantry. Nice article.

Surpirsed you didn't notice that dispite my sub-editor fiancee forwarding this entry to Shazz with me being off sick with the flu being unable to get to a computer, actually managed to omit about 6 words.
As for the defender of the faith you are correct, but the addition of the Head of the Church of England was to emphasis that Henry did indeed see himslef even more so the defender of the faith.

Okay, I was pushing it a bit - effectively Henry did declare himslef to *still* be F.D. Oh and you're forgetting that I'm a maths student and therefore can't count.
