That's exactly what I was taught just about 6 or 7 years after WW2. As I was born and lived on an island that was occupied by the Germans during that war it was the bloody last thing we wanted to hear about. And as for Henry 8, well all us kids thought that everybody in his time dressed like him and looked a right load of clowns as they never mentioned anyone else!
