We can't discuss the Tudor court without mentioning the performance of "courtly love" amongst the men, women, kings and queens. What was it? What were the rules? Why was it such a fun game for courtiers to play? And what happened when people, especially our queens, took everything too far?

Kate and Cally are discussing how these odd, messy games of love contributed to the unique culture of the Tudor court...and the downfalls of two of our queens.
