THE STORY: Mike Poulton's two-part adaptation of Hilary Mantel's Man Booker Prize-winning novels is a thrilling portrait of a brilliant manipulator navigating a high-stakes political landscape. In BRING UP THE BODIES, Anne Boleyn is now queen, her path to Henry's side cleared by Cromwell. But Henry still needs a male heir, and he begins to fall in love with the seemingly plain Jane Seymour. Cromwell must negotiate an increasingly perilous court to satisfy Henry, defend the nation, and advance his own ambitions.
