* {{Tearjerker}}: Teddy. Just everything about Teddy. He clearly has some sort of intellectual disability (the show hints he was born with one, not that it was caused by spending almost his entire life locked in the Tower of London, though that couldn't have helped nor could the fact that his father is shown in ''Queen'' to have gone utterly crackers at the end of his life), Lizzie and the other Tudors use this to trick him into signing a confession of treason, though he clearly has no idea what he's doing (he thinks he's just showing them how clever he is by how he can write his name). He is then taken to the executioner's block, along with his cousin (well, maybe). He panics when he realizes what is happening but sadly not knowing why, and has to be forced to put his head on the block, with someone holding his head in place, all while sobbing and promising to be good. His cousin holds his hand the entire time and assures him that he is good.
** In the third episode, Henry and Lizzie come to an understanding that they're NotSoDifferent due to their upbringings of being puppets of their mother's ambitions (Margaret intending for Henry to become King and Elizabeth plotting to have Lizzie marry Henry to lull the Lancasters into a false sense of security so Richard could overthrow them). They were pushed together into a marriage neither of them wanted...all to fulfill their mothers' ambitions for power.

Not hindsight; this is historical fiction.


* HarsherInHindsight: Sir Richard Pole expresses some relief that they will not have to look after Prince Harry, as "he's a handful". Considering what Henry VIII did the Poles, he has no idea.
* HilariousInHindsight: The deeply religious (and Catholic) Margaret Beaufort is close to her grandson, the future Henry VIII founder of the Anglican Church. Somewhat fitting as some scholars opine that Henry in his heart remained a Catholic in practice if not in fact.
