Anne of Cleves gets a pretty raw deal in the history books.
She's often accused of being ugly, after Henry VIII claimed the painting he had made of her was overly flattering.
While their marriage was short-lived, is it time we give Anne of Cleves, who hailed from a small state in Germany, the props she deserves?
Just who was this woman who came from relative obscurity into the madness of the Tudor court, and came out one of life's winners?
In the fourth episode of our limited series, Secret Wives of the Six Wives, Kate is joined once again by Tudor export Nicola Tallis, to help us find out more about the woman who arguably played the game of being Henry's wife better than any of the five others.
This episode was edited and produced by Stuart Beckwith. The senior producer was Charlotte Long.
