Bloody Mary and the Burning of Cranmer
On Mary I's ascendancy the Catholics returned to power. Stephen Gardiner, Bishop of Winchester was released from the Tower and made Lord Chancellor. Mary I wanted reunion with Rome - 200 Protestants were burned at the stake including Thomas Cranmer. Mary married Philip II of Spain - Elizabeth was imprisoned. The link with Spain led to war with France and eventually to the loss of Calais in 1558. In 1555 Stephen Gardiner died, Cardinal Reginald Pole became Archbishop of Canterbury. The Queen, Philip of Spain and Pole became more and more unpopular.
