In this episode of the online comedy sketch series, Henry searches for some hotties via online dating. Starring Brian Blessed as Henry VIII. The Tudor king is alive & well, and living in a suburban semi with his long-suffering sixth wife Catherine Parr. He has embraced modern technology and lives his life online - insulting the King of France on Facebook, surfing for honeys, and blocking the Pope on Twitter. Very much the modern man - he likes Top Gear, Kings of Leon & Sunday roasts, he dislikes Michael Buble, I.T. helpdesks & Lily Allen's manager. These clips offer an insight into what happens when a 16th century king meets 21st century suburbia. Eat your heart out David Starkey here's the real thing!

We could cast him as Tom Bombadil and do "Lord of the Rings-The Lost Tapes". In your face Peter Jackson!

I LOVE Brian Blessed - he is such a fantastic character and entertainer, but this is embarrassing! Why not cast him in a new production of the 1972 Keith Mitchell 'Henry VIII and his Six Wives'! He would be outstanding in that!
