Historical Inaccuracies - 'The Tudors', Series 1, Episode 10

• The King's council is shown meeting in the Great Hall of the palace when I think they avtually met at Westminster.
•  The protestant reformer, Simon Fish, is arrested for heresy by Thomas More and burned. Fish was indeed arrested for heresy but died of plague before he could stand trial, in 1531.
• Anne Boleyn is shown dining with Henry in the great hall, and again she is wearing a rediculous head-dress which would not have been fashionable or seemly at the time. 
• Henry tells Anne that he is giving her Wolsey's old palace of York Place. This did indeed become a royal residence, and was re-named Whitehall. The series has consistently shown Whitehall to be Henry's palace from the start, even though he did not aqcuire it until the 1530s, and he had many palaces which he lived in on a sort of 'rotation' basis.
• Wolsey is shown being forcibly arrested by guards and the Duke of Suffolk He was actyally arrested, very civily, by the young Duke of Northumberland, acting on behalf of the King. Wolsey questioned Northumberland's authority and initially refused to go with him.
•  Katherine tells Chapuys (who wasn't leaving, just having a few months break) that she could not condone a war to help her. Chapuys actually spent the next few years constantly pestering both her and the Emperor to agree to a war to overthrow Henry. Thankfully, the Emperor was never interested.
• Wolsy commits suicide whilst a satirical play about his life is performed. The play 'On the Cardinal going to hell' was actually performed as depicted, but Wolsey did not kill himself. He died of what is believed to be dysentry whilst staying at Leicester Abbey on his way to London to stand trial.
