On this day in Tudor history, Sunday 27th October 1532, Anne Boleyn, Marquess of Pembroke, made a dramatic entrance to the great banquet held by King Henry VIII in Calais in honour of King Francis I of France.
Claire Ridgway, author of "The Fall of Anne Boleyn: A Countdown", shares details from contemporary sources regarding the banquet and the masque that followed. Anne Boleyn definitely knew how to make and entrance and the English ladies must have looked spectacular. You'll recognise some of the names of Anne's ladies and those present in Calais.
