View Full Version : TV The Tudors
Anyone watched this series, and if so is it any good?
Loosely based on the life of Henry VIII as I understand it, with Jonathon Rhys Meyers playing the monarch.

yep, about to start watching season 3 (i think it is) now. some stunners in this, including gratuitious nudity on many an occassion.
oh yeah, beheadings and hangings feature prominantly.
Sounds like my kind of show, better get "acquiring"...

I like it. is loose with history in some places but the 'feeling' is true.
Sam Niell is first class as Cardinal Wolsey (series 1). One minute hes acting the perfect "archbishop" next hes doing physical standover on dudes who get in his way.
Off topic slightly the two aussies in "Elizabeth" Cate Blanchet and Geffrey rush are the best Elizabeth 1st cast ever
Its not bad, some very nicccce chicks in it.
Doesnt really make you want to watch one episode after the other but probably worth a look if your into it

The only parts I watch are the sex scenes, pretty hot.
