Tony Harris is a professional comedian, raconteur and actor who specialises in historical talks with an hysterical twist.

For two years Tony lived and worked at Hampton Court Palace and played Henry VIII every other day for the benefit of more than half a million tourists.

He learnt his Tudor trade at the feet of major historical experts and has been bringing his unique blend of history and comedy to the speaker circuit for the past six years.

His aim is to trick people into learning by making them laugh, but every point he makes is historically accurate.
