Look at the "scary" Anna of Cleves in a Christmas outfit... and Catherine Howard... Back at Anna... and Catherine... That's what competent casting directors are for.
Actually, according to the history of Catherine Howard, before her marriage she was a maid of honor to Anna of Cleves, it is a little strange to see that according to the script, Anna was first introduced to her only at these Yuletide. I don't understand Lady Rochford's motives, what does she want in the opinion of the screenwriters? And yes, by this time the king had not only turned gray, but had also grown quite fat. And Henry is also in his repertoire - first he gets rid of his most valuable advisers, and then he regrets and blames everyone for his own mistakes.
@KaterinaVoyler: Lady Rochford just doesn't like Catherine Howard (however, like everyone else). She once said that the queen was a sweet little fool. Or maybe she's just jealous. Well, or just because of a harmful, nasty nature :D
And as for the execution of my advisers, yes, I also paid attention. It was the same with Wolsey. Only he was executed for the deed - he robbed the king, but Cromwell, as I understood it, was simply framed.
@KaterinaVoyler: Oh, His Majesty has a hobby of feeling sorry for himself and blaming everyone around him. He has been interested in it for more than a dozen years. With experience, so to speak. hd
Of course, it is not known how it was in history for sure, but according to the series, Catherine Howard is even a pity - such a sweet fool that she sees nothing beyond her nose.
If we compare Catherine Howard and Anna Klevskaya, then in my subjective opinion Anna is prettier and more open. Although, according to history, it should be the other way around. I did not like the actress who plays Ekaterina, she is not beautiful at all, not even charming. The actress was picked up unsuccessfully.
