No, Mary Tudor (sometimes called 'Bloody Mary' for the number of protestants she had burned at the stake) was queen for 5 years before dying of cancer. Elizabeth then ascended the throne and ruled for 45 years. Sometimes people confuse Mary Tudor (ie Elizabeth's older sister) with Mary Queen of Scots (Elizabeth's cousin).
