TR023 A Tale of Two Catherines’

            Catherine Howard & Catherine Parr
     Henry’s marriage to Wife #5, Catherine Howard came close to matching the drama of his earlier partnership with Anne Boleyn and this one too ended in tragedy and treason with Catherine being executed after being found guilty of ‘High Treason’.
