There was no such thing as divorce those days!!!
Henry tried hard to force the Pope (Head of the Catholic Church) to
allow him to divorce but the pope said ‘NO’!!....

Half the top section of your page by drawing
a line in the middle (this does not need to
be the full page only the top section)
On one side you have 3 minutes to draw
what you think Elizabeth I looked like.
www.historytl.com
When Elizabeth I came to the throne in 1558 after the death of her
sister, Mary she needed to win the support of all her people:
• Catholics
• Protestants
• Those who believed that a woman could not run a country by
herself.
One of the best ways for a monarch to win support was by making a
tour of the country and showing themselves to the people. In Tudor
times this was called a 'progress'.
This was not an option for Elizabeth because she had many Catholic
enemies and it was not safe for her to travel around the country. She
chose, instead, to use portraits to show herself to her people.
www.historytl.com
Now on the other side …
Draw out the descriptions:
• Short about 5'3 or 5'5 with brown eyes and red curly hair.
• Afraid of mice.
• Bad tempered and would throw things or threaten to send
courtiers to the Tower if upset.
• Swore and spat when angry.
• Teeth were black with tooth decay and speech was sometimes
difficult to understand because of missing teeth.
• Very superstitious and was afraid of black magic.
• Only bathed once every few weeks.

www.historytl.com
Queen Elizabeth I
www.historytl.com
Hello everyone, I am Your Queen,
and I know how much you want
me to get married.
You believe that if I marry I will
produce a male heir, England will
remain Protestant and my new
husband will use his influence to
protect my country from war.
To help you decide who I should
marry I have three questions to
ask each suitor
www.historytl.com
Question Number 1
My father went through a
lot of pain, and lost many
friends (and wives) to turn
England into this great
Protestant country.
What is your preferred
religion?
www.historytl.com
Question to Number 2
Your father Henry VIII was
a great man, however he was
misguided.
Catholicism is the true
religion
Philip II Spain
www.historytl.com
Question to Number 1
Protestant of course,
I am a real
Englishman, loyal to
you my lady
Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester
www.historytl.com
Question to Number 3
I have to agree
with contestant
number 3. I will
stick to my
Catholic roots!
Francis, Duke of Alençon
www.historytl.com
Hint
Don’t forget to fill in
your worksheet as we go
through the questions.
You will need this
information to decide
who to vote for later
www.historytl.com
Question Number 2
As Queen, I enjoy the
finer things in life.
Good food, fine
wines, expensive
clothes and I just love
buying make-up.
My second question is,
are you rich?
www.historytl.com
Question to Number 1
Oh yes, rich rich rich. I
made most of my
money in the trading
companies, and a little
extra spending money
in the court.
Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester
www.historytl.com
Question to Number 3
My brother is the King of
France and I have lots of
money and some estates
in France. However my
older brother inherited
most of my fathers land.
Francis, Duke of Alençon
www.historytl.com
Question to Number 2
I have gold from South
America, and I own a lot
of other countries. I will
share all I have with you.
Choose me as your
husband.
Philip II Spain
www.historytl.com
Question Number 3
We all have skeletons in
the closet. I have my
cousin Mary locked up as
we speak!
My third question is, is there
anything you think I should
know before my parliament
decides who I should marry?
www.historytl.com
Question to Number 3
Although I am Catholic, please
remember we French do not
hate England as much as the
Spanish do.
I understand that some people
in England have published a
pamphlet warning you not to
marry me. Please don’t listen
to them.
Francis, Duke of Alençon
www.historytl.com
Question to Number 2
I spoke to the Pope the other
day, and he said I should have
nothing to do with Protestant
countries.
But we know each other well, I
was married to your fine sister
Mary. She knew that England
should be Catholic.
Philip II Spain
www.historytl.com
Question to Number 1
We have known each other
since we were children. You
know I love you.
It was terrible when my wife
Amy fell down those stairs to
her death. But you must
know, the rumours that I
murdered her are just not
true.
Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester
www.historytl.com
How fantastic was that!
What a difficult choice.
You must now make up your
minds, who should Good
Queen Bess Marry?
Before you make your final
decision here is a reminder
of our four fabulous suitors
www.historytl.com
Suitor, Number 1
Dudley has known the
Queen since they were
children.
But did he murder poor
Amy?
Robert Dudley, Earl of Leicester
www.historytl.com
Suitor, Number 2
A Catholic who plans to
defend his faith.
He is very wealthy, but
his former wife was
Elizabeth’s sister Mary
Phillip II of Spain
www.historytl.com
Hello, Number 3
He is a French Catholic, but
does not hate England as
much as the Spanish hate
us. He is very rich and his
brother is King of France, a
good Ally.
Loyal fans of Elizabeth have
published a report urging
Elizabeth not to marry him.
Francis, Duke of Alençon
