Are the Marwoods falling out of favour…? May 1529
Queen Catherine of Aragon is awaiting the start of the Legatine Court, summoned to pronounce on her marriage to King Henry VIII.
The queen asks her trusted lady-in-waiting, Thomasin Marwood, to attend for her, to be her eyes and ears throughout the proceedings. But Thomasin has her own problems.
Her sister Cecelia has fallen pregnant while her husband Sir Hugh Truegood is absent, and now the Marwoods are disgraced.
Thomasin is expecting a proposal of marriage from courtier Rafe Danvers, but she is worried this scandal could jeopardise things.
