Funny. I read somewhere that Anne of Cleves was so naive that when Henry kissed her goodnight, she thought it could get her pregnant. And all I can think is, how horribly cruel of whomever looked after her prior to this, for not educating her a tad bit on sexual activities before her own wedding.
Anne of Cleeves was actually a plump blonde and regarded as a beauty in her day. A sick, obese Henry slandered the hell out of her to excuse his impotence. Seems unfair that it's his story that is immortalized and this improvised princess will be a scape goat of a weak man for all of time.
+Kaydiasez That's nonsense! Your delusional rant isn't even logical. There are more holes in your story than...than a thing with many holes in it! I'll stick with all the other versions reported by people who aren't hiding behind anonymous internet handles. You disgust me.
You are the most adorable little troll, I want to pinch your wee li'l cheeks! Not that you care, but my assertion is from the BBC History channel and writings from P. Gregory who is a Tudor historian. I typically like to give 3 sources, but I think the painting of her is agreed to be accurate except for her complexion being darker, and it is very pretty. So, go forth and be disgusted. Your emotional state is actually less important to me than you assume. XX
Sorry, but Gregory has an Undergrad degree in history from University of Sussex and a PHD in History from the University of Edinburgh. Her novels are fiction, not her essays, I highly recommend the non-fic 'Cousins War' she helped write. An excellent read for history lovers.
"regarded as a beauty in her day" that reminds me of when apologists try and get around atrocities in the past by saying "it was the done thing back them, so therefore they should be excused for their mass murder".
Anne was a perfectly good-looking woman. Henry probably just talked her down because he was more upset about Jane's death than he could let on, and in that dark place no one would please him. Also, there's a good chance he couldn't get it up anymore.
Just looked up Hever Castle to learn that it was the childhood home of Anne Boleyn. Must have been a great reminder of how "things could have been worse" if Anne of Cleves ever got down about her annulment.
Anne was a pretty smart cookie - she accepted her role as a sort of "King's sister" and had a very comfortable rest of her life. No doubt she was relieved not to have to sleep with the obese, stinky Henry!
Funniest drunk history story I've ever seen 😂 'Then Brown fucks right off' 'I don't know alot about pulling women but if I was King, I would dress as one' "Henry eight there of, I'm all yours. And he's like "Fuck off love"' "He annulled it. Then she got 'ever Castle!" Crying 😂😂😂
Best divorced ending ever, got something grand every year and a couple of castles. If I was Anne I would be letting loose with a party and say it’s on the house because my ex is paying for it
And she got to marry the man she actually loved! She was probably the best "After Henry" story ever. He didn't kill her. Her family. Make them destitute. And make them hated. Henry gave her a nice chunk of the coins and estate to live out her life. THE REAL REAL REALEST MORAL OF THE STORY THOUGH: Part amicably with the man you married in order to get some $$$$$$ worthy deposits in your bank account. Don't do all the shit you see in movies: "I'm leaving youuuuu. I'm taking all your money". Because that is when almost ex hubbie gets the wheels in the brain to start rotating. He hires a hitman to fucking shoot/beat/strangle/burn/woodchipper disappear, your ass dead. Or hires the best attorney to make sure you only get the least possible amount, leaving you basically penniless after you pay your outstanding lawyer bills. Now you're a destitute homeless (but chic) bag lady who mutters to herself all day long and smells like moth balls and asbestos, all on show on the streets of the city, for free.
+Kenyan Bunnie Anne of Cleves never re-married after the annulment with Henry VIII. I think you confused her with Catherine Parr, Henry's last wife. She outlived him, married the man she loved (whether he actually loved her back is another story) and remained pretty wealthy for the rest of her life.
@@kathrynfoot2208 Thanks! I wasn't sure because some of the Cockney I've heard before was harder to understand (maybe just laced with more slang?) but I found him very easy to understand, so thought maybe it was something else.
You, you said that I tricked ya Cuz I didn't look like my profile picture Too, too bad I don't agree Cuz I'm gonna hang it up for everyone to see And you can't stop me!
This guy is one of their best story tellers.
elvis316 - I agree!
Him and Joe Lycett (He's done Drunk History of The Kray Twins and Napoleon Bonaparte) always have me in stitches!😂
I too wish he taught me history in school!
Too thick an accent though
"H, Henry, Eight thereof...I'm yours." Dying.
Brandon Wei "Fuck off love"
I think this is the drunkest drunk history I've ever seen
Kate C watch the one on lord byron and you’ll change ur mind

You need to watch Ed Gamble explain “the Great Escape”, you will rethink that statement. 😂😂

Did you know I used to work in a fuckin' market ... I used to sell compost.
"I'm going to fucking Ibiza for the season!"
Died laughing at that, hahaha
"and he's like...fuck off love"
Best Line !!!!
He definitely censored himself from saying "cunted" at the end haha.
Hahaha. That blank stare into the camera at the end
Divorced, beheaded and died.
Divorced, beheaded, survived.
And just for you, tonight... we're divorced, beheaded, LIIIIIVE!
*techno remix of greensleeves*
I WAS LOOKING FOR A SIX COMMENT!!!
Literally just learned this in my grade 12 history from the 15th century 😂
Thank you Histeria!
@@Wonkle_ 16th century. I hope that was just a mistake in this comment section and you got that right in your tests. ;-)

Phillipa isn't a historian but other than that you're right.

Ah ye royal erictle dysfuntion

Right!
Love this guy "I'm getting payed to get shit faced! This is like a fucking dream!" 😂😂
So the moral of this story is if your mate goes to Germany and draws a picture of a woman, don't marry her!
Oh THAT'S where I went wrong.
That last long pause ... brilliant
That's so funny... and the editing and camera work is so good...
Happy to hear this! You can watch more clips here: bit.ly/DrunkHistoryRomesh
Love his laugh...this is the best one.
Anne was a pretty smart cookie - she accepted her role as a sort of "King's sister" and had a very comfortable rest of her life. No doubt she was relieved not to have to sleep with the obese, stinky Henry!
i think I literally broke a rib laughing at dude dancing in the bondage lingerie
"...I'm absolutely fucked" haha
Looks like Biff
He kinda talks/laughs like Ricky Gervais, LOL
"H -- Henry eight thereof..." hahaha!
I looooove this man omfg
Wow. That was hilarious. Wouldn't it be fun if we had brits doing American history and yanks doing British history?
+j rm Most Yanks don't appreciate comedy even if it screams into their faces.
thomas261989 As a yank, I found this hilarious
thomas261989 this show came from the US. And while some drunken storytellers are funnier than others there, same is true for this UK version
thomas261989 “Yanks don’t appreciate comedy.” Watches a comedy show created by Americans.
No.
That moral story, tho! Brilliant
Every video the drunk historian says: "This is the best day of my life!"
I thank God every day for inventing the hilarious sight that is, a drunk person.
"And Brown fucks right off!" lmao
this is fucking brilliant!! Rob Beckett you ledge
This absolutely fantastic
His laugh makes me laugh. Love this vid!
ay-oh no-go ☝
Henry was no looker himself. 🤣😂
"like a weird dream" lol I love him
Catch more clips from Drunk History on the Comedy Central website: bit.ly/DrunkHistoryUK
+Comedy Central UK but you can't watch it if you're in sweden :(
Consider that a mercy.
This guy is hilarious! The whole segment had me laughing so hard.
That F on your shirt is brilliant..lol
2:25
can't breathe I'm laughing so hard.
"Then Brown f***s right off!" "She's a rotter!" 🤣🤣🤣
Even the Closed Captioner couldn't decode his very thick accent. LOL!
I love how the theme music for Upstart Crow randomly begins to play.
“Henry I’ve seen her 🤮” 🤣🤣🤣
This is one of things I watch when I need a pick-me-up.
Henry woz like "Am gud luv thx"
1:34
Me: GET A BUCKET AND A MOP!
I was wondering if anyone else thought this
this one is my absolute favorite.
Don't get me wrong, I love the American one, but this shit got me in stitches
SAME
This has to be the best of the Drunken histories
love this guy 😂
Anne of Cleeves was the first catfish?
Funniest drunk history story I've ever seen 😂
'Then Brown fucks right off'
'I don't know alot about pulling women but if I was King, I would dress as one'
"Henry eight there of, I'm all yours. And he's like "Fuck off love"'
"He annulled it. Then she got 'ever Castle!"
Crying 😂😂😂
Can rob becket just do all of the stories
I literally peed my knickers at this!!🤣🤣🤣
This guy was hilarious!
First recorded case of catfishing😂😂😂
The best one yet.
This is the absolute best
This is so funny

This one's one of the funniest of all time!
Always been my favorite one
Jolly good.
No teeth were harmed during this broadcast.
Splendid!
Thank you 💘
Has to be the best teeth of the British. Aye?
Best divorced ending ever, got something grand every year and a couple of castles. If I was Anne I would be letting loose with a party and say it’s on the house because my ex is paying for it
This is my favorite one so far ngl 😂 sent me
What was the music during this or where did you find it? Thanks! :D Would be perfect music for my videos!
That was good. This guy, though, seems to have been blessed with more than his fair share of teeth. 😂
Brilliant.
At 1.08 his laugh sounds like Ricky Gervaise....lmao!!!
Greatest video I've EVER seen! I laughed so hard I may have gone into labor 2 months early!! Possibly better than the American version lol
Drunk history is so funny
Oh Muh Gud....😭😭😂😭😂😂😂😂😭
Everybody Eats. Hahaha
This is the most irresponsible educational show ever
G freakin g
"If your maid comes from Germany, don't marry her." Well that's the opposite of 300 years royal British history since George I.
The way I heard it from the tour guides in UK was that H8 said she had the face of a Flemish mare.
Is that the same theme song from Upstart Crow?
And she got to marry the man she actually loved! She was probably the best "After Henry" story ever. He didn't kill her. Her family. Make them destitute. And make them hated. Henry gave her a nice chunk of the coins and estate to live out her life.

+Kenyan Bunnie Yeah, i thought the moral of the story was: better to be smart, passive and nondescript than a zesty hottie -- play a long game lol.

She outlived him, married the man she loved (whether he actually loved her back is another story) and remained pretty wealthy for the rest of her life.
thomas261989 but she died a year after him in childbirth same as Jane Seymour
And the kids all loved Anne and spent Christmas with her.
This guy is the story telling standard
Professor Beckett (UCL) telling it like it was.
"I don't know if WaPS is a word" - if only he knew now 🤔 😅
“Fuck this shit, she’s a rotter, he’s got the hump- he loves a bit of the old axe. I’m going to fucking Ibiza for the season!”
He looks like a young David Bowie
Björn Sallmén if David Bowie was part shark
Absolutely do not mind the cast in this. Tony Way as Anne of Cleves? Dustin D.B's perfect lip-syncing? This should be recommissioned.
Dontos Hollard??
This man has the maximum amount of teeth before be crosses to another species.
He's fuckin off to Ibiza for the season
He reminds me of Pandora from skins
I’m off I’m gan ibeefa for the season
What is his accent? Is that Geordie? I've been trying to learn them lately since I've been watching a lot of comedy from the British Isles.
Hi it’s Cockney London area accent
@@kathrynfoot2208 Thanks! I wasn't sure because some of the Cockney I've heard before was harder to understand (maybe just laced with more slang?) but I found him very easy to understand, so thought maybe it was something else.
You Know in real life she was beautiful he just needed a fake reason to marry Catherine
He could be my cousin Najee's twin. His drunk, British twin! His dad is mixed race and now I know where those eyes and that nose come from.
You, you said that I tricked ya
Cuz I didn't look like my profile picture
Too, too bad I don't agree
Cuz I'm gonna hang it up for everyone to see
And you can't stop me!
CAUSE IM THE QUEEN OF THE CASTLE
GET DOWN YOU DIRTY RASCAL
GET DOWN
My only question - as an American - is who is this blond dude ? A reality star ?
He's a stand-up comedian
