    Oh my god. When Matt runs off and then Henry and Cromwell just look at eachother like "What are we meant to do?" before they run off in different directions. This is comedy genius.

    If they voluntarily surrendered, declaring allegiance to the crown over the pope, they'd have got pensions; if they resisted, they'd have been imprisoned and executed.
    As an aside, that's by far the best* Thomas Cromwell impersonation I have ever seen.

      are you really all that surprised? christianity never had a centralisation-of-authority origin, it was a moving-around trying to create change in policy movement right from the start. PARALLEL to government & authority, let-alone one country or city trying to claim authority over all others. typical of the arrogance of rome
