Henry had been hidden away by his father, James VI of Scotland. When James because the King of England, Henry was finally allowed in public eye as the first Scottish Prince of Wales.

3. Executive Stress
If it’s a sitcom you want, it’s Executive Stress this month. Penelope Keith stars as Caroline Fairchild in this 1980s British sitcom. She returns to work as the Editorial Director at Oasis Publishing, but has spent the last 25 years raising her five children. When her company buys out her husband’s publishing house, Gingsberg, the two need to work together. However, Oasis doesn’t allow a married couple to work together.
Since Caroline actually applied for (and got the job) under her maiden name Fielding, she decides to stay in the role. Now the two need to work together without letting anyone know they’re married — or that they even know each other!
All 19 episodes will drop on the service during the middle of the month.
