Horrible Histories: Season 7, Episode 3

7 - 3: Ridiculous Romantics

This week Horrible Histories charts the path towards true love - and some of history's biggest and most ridiculous romantics are in the spotlight.

With his woeful record for choosing the right woman, Henry VIII enlists the help of Maître d' Fred Sirieix as he tries to find the right wife on Historic First Dates. Elsewhere, we sample some Medieval Munich Love Magic, see how Renaissance men tried to impress the ladies, listen to some of History's greatest love letters, and watch as King Alfonso of Spain's wedding takes a turn he's not expecting.
