Summary: On this day in Tudor history, 22nd October 1537, an examination, or rather interrogation, was carried out regarding an accusation of treasonous words spoken against King Henry VIII. Further investigations into the matter found that there was no evidence that these words were spoken, and that someone was trying to get another person into trouble. What was going on? In a time when the punishment for high treason was death, this was very serious. Find out more about what happened in this talk from historian Claire Ridgway.
