King Henry VIII has died, and his only heir, a young Edward VI, is dying too. Minister John Dudley doesn't want the Roman Catholic Princess Mary to become queen, as that would end the Protestant Reformation. Dudley plots to keep Edward alive long enough to name Lady Jane Grey as his heir and also marries Jane to his son, Guilford . Jane and Guilford soon fall in love, but the kingdom doesn't believe they should rule.
