The Tudors

[BumsyClugger]

Virgin have kindly put all the episodes on On Demand.

Question is, do I want to watch it? Is it any good?

It's fabulously entertaining old crap.
I have the box set.
Henry ageing by talking in a funny voice is particularly hilarious, as is Colm Wilson booming about being a proud Northener in an Irish accent, oh and Henry throwing fruit whenever he is angry, and randomly wanking into a pot in one episode

I absolutely love it! I know it's a bit trashy and not serious history at times but it is very enjoyable and I really really loved Natalie Dormer as Anne Boleyn.

And it's worth watching alone for Henry Cavill as Charles Brandon

YY, Henry Cavill is hot, particularly during the first series

I really love it but yes it is a bit trashy. Henry Cavill is gorgeous but then so is Jonathan Myers!

trashy gory sexy but great fun

Don't watch it if you want something factually accurate.

Oh the Tudors is glorious! I loved it. Take the history with a pinch of salt and wallow in the gorgeousness of Henry Cavill and also Natalie Dormer as Anne Boleyn.

It's not historically accurate but it is a fabulous romp and very addictive!

Oh watch it, it's ruddy hilarious! And although it's loosely based on history, it's an amazing story too.

I also have the box set - I love it all. Natalie dormer is fab.

Have to post more...
Fave bits include Catherine calling Henry 'usbend' all the time
Prince Edward had an Irish accent
Joss stone's accent as Anne of cleeves was bizarre

I'm doing a PhD in history of that very period (in Europe not England) but enjoyed it v much as entertainment and relaxation, despite plenty of inaccuracies - and thought some of the acting was good as well.
