Pop Quiz: What Chess Piece Would Cromwell Be?


If Wolf Hall was chess game which piece would Thomas Cromwell be?

And for that matter any of the cast... except most of the answers would be obvious. ;>

He has to be the Queen. The one doing all the maneuvering on behalf of Henry.

Definitely the Queen. The knight doesn't have enough options but that would be my second.

reply

Not just the Queen: a lowly pawn who toiled all the way to the end of the board to become the Queen. Great question!

reply

And a damned good answer!
