Anne Boleyn's Final Day: The Most Shocking Execution In British History

Video Description

It is the early morning of May 19th, 1536. Just days ago, Anne Boleyn - Queen of England - stood trial at the Tower of London, accused of adultery, incest, and treason. Now, she awaits her fate. In this final episode of Anne Boleyn: Arrest, Trial, Execution, historian Tracy Borman traces the queen's last, harrowing hours - from her final prayers to the moment of her execution on Tower Green. With access to original documents, haunting locations, and personal artefacts, Borman uncovers new details of that fateful day: the king's chilling order for a French swordsman, the final words Anne spoke, and the political motives behind her death. What really happened on the morning Anne was executed? Was it the result of justice served, or the brutal silencing of a woman who had risen too far? This is the darkest day of Anne Boleyn's life - and one of the most controversial in English history.
