1.You find yourself idly wondering what your OH would look like in doublet and hose. On second thoughts maybe he doesn’t have the legs for it!
2. You start #BringBackHatDoffing on Twitter after finding Mark Rylance’s removing his beret with a flourish strangely attractive.
3. After Googling all the places the series was filmed – six in all - you decide to take out a lifelong membership of the National Trust. So many historical palaces to visit, and so little time.
4. You realise you’ve become a Tudor bore. Happily telling anyone who will listen that Henry VIII had a 32in waist before his jousting accident in 1536. Who knew!
5. You’ve ditched your usual pain au chocolat in favour of a spiced 15th century Maid of Honour custard tart. Sales at a North London bakery have already rocketed and they deliver across the UK and Ireland, so you’ve put in a bulk order.
