Oh fab, sexed up Tudors on BBC2 next Friday!!

[beansprout]

I do love a good sexed up Tudor, I do.

DS saw the trailer for it and wanted to watch it. "That looks good Mummy and we're doing it at school. Henry was a baddie wasn't he? It will help me with my history."

I muttered vaguely that it might be a bit too grown up for him...

Me too! Those codpieces are to die for

Any series that focuses on the Boleyn period is just an excuse for a good old romp.

Nowt wrong with that, mind.

really looking forward to this. Henry looks HOT.

I'd like to watch that as well .

looking forward to this!

looks quite, erm, hot , in an historical and edukashional way

Wonder if it's suitable for a 13 year old, being hysterical and edukashnal and that.

i thikn most 13 year olds would rather die than watch anything raunchy with their parents

True. She'd miss all the "good" bits anyway, by hiding under the rug on the sofa!

Oh no - I've only just recovered from the lust-fest which was James Purefoy as Mark Antony and Kevin McKidd as Vorenus in Rome - and now I have to start all over again with Jonathan Rhys Meyers as a fabulously fit Henry VIII???????

Well, if you insist, I'll join you. I like a bit of raunchy Tudor sex educational documentary-style TV on a Friday.

Am I killed wonderful Tudor sex thread. Did not mean to...

You didn't kill it, slayerette!

With you on James Purfoy - luuuuurvely in Rome, even with eyeliner...

So who is playing Henry then?

It's that well known red-head Jonathan Rhys Meyers TheOldestCat
Does have Jeremy Northam in as Sir Thomas More...

Mind you they will have to go some to beat Rufus Sewell as Charles II, my god I thought I was going to faint watching that

Cheers Marina - not sure about Jonathan R-M but Jeremy Northam rings my bell.

Also with you, wheresthevalium, on Rufus in Charles II.

What is it about chaps in historical dramas for me??!

Oh, with Jonathan R-M it's the mouth. Sooooooo poutily kissable (she says, making up bizarre words randomly...)

Oh yes! This'll be right up my street...purely for educational reasons of course

So is it tomorrow or 5 October?

Title please so I can sky+ it?

?The Tudors? Friday 5th BB2, not sure what time. I?ll watch it mainly for, ooh, let?s see Jonanthan Rhys Meyers, Callum Blue, Henry Cavill, Jeremy Northam?. I?m sure there are lots more!

Ladies, start your hormones!

I actually caught some of this when staying with ILs in Northern Ireland a couple of weeks ago (it was on RTE) and it was quite diverting! FIL wasn't convinced though, so we watched some other crap in the end.

thought this might be interesting to those following this
