As the synopsis explains, is a trailblazing new series "that explores Anne Boleyn's remarkable story from her own perspective in a modern and contemporary way. Rooted in historical fact, it reveals the sexy, action-packed, high-stakes story of an extraordinary woman who rewrote the rules in every sense.

"Anne is seen for the first time, not as the scheming temptress of previous histories – but as a daughter, mother, wife and most importantly, as a reformist whose radical and feminist views changed the course of history forever. An astounding story where the stakes are quite literally a matter of life and death."

Leading the cast as Anne is actress Amy James-Kelly who revealed how she found portraying such a notorious figure in history. "I became very defensive of her to be honest with you! Anne Boleyn essentially intended to introduce an early version of socialism to Great Britain, but this was warped by King Henry VIII and his court.

Amy, who is also known for her role in, continued: "She was excruciatingly clever, and this intimidated almost everyone in her life, except her brother George. Their relationship - along with working with Jhon Lumsden who brought so much humanity and warmth to George - was what made such an intense shoot so wonderful."
