Hi Everyone,
Did you read our post on the occasion of Prince William announcing his engagement to Kate Middleton?
Well, here is more royalty playing chess. This is from the first episode of Season one of The Tudors. King Henry VIII and Thomas Boleyn talk about the King of France during a game of chess.
The Tudors is an Irish, British & Canadian produced historical fiction television series created by Michael Hirst. The series is based loosely upon the reign of English monarch Henry VIII, and is named after the Tudor dynasty.
