Monday 18 April, Hampton Court Palace

Hampton Court is the palace most closely associated with Henry VIII, where he lived with all his wives at various times, and where the future Elizabeth I lay close to death for three long days, suffering from smallpox. It is where he married Katherine Parr, his sixth wife (the one who survived), the Queen who figures prominently in Hey, Jules.
