I've concluded that since they're making up the "history" they might as well make up the costumes too. I've also stopped trying to watch it, and picked up a fresh DVD copy of Keith Michell's Six Wives of Henry VIII from the 70s. What a joy to watch. That show was on a limited budget, and yet everything looks (from camera distance) perfect! I feel much better now.
