The Second Season of “The Tudors” concluded recently on BBC Two and was promptly released on DVD on Monday, as was a set containing both last year’s run together with this latest offering. The total of twenty episodes reached a grisly culmination with the heartless execution of Henry VIII’s second wife Anne Boleyn. I think this was a shame! And, for all her stoicism, I expect she probably thought the same!!
Why do you think Anne’s death was a shame, Tim, I hear you all cry? Well, it means actress Natalie Dormer won’t be in the next series! History should’ve been rewritten in order to accommodate a lady with such gorgeous eyes. Some may think them narrow but that is part of her beauty. She positively smoulders.
Even when in danger of losing it, the girl kept her head! The doomed royal had Hans Matheson hear her last confession… that she hadn’t actually done anything wrong!!
Ironically, Hans, as the dastardly and corrupting Alec d’Urberville, in “Tess of the d’Urbervilles”, had donned preacher’s robes over on BBC One, whereupon one of our heroine’s milkmaid chums comments that he doesn’t look much like a man of the cloth…
Obviously, the producers of “The Tudors” thought otherwise. But, Hans could do nothing to save the lovely Natalie, despite the repeated postponement of her wanton slaying due to the late arrival of the axe man. And, I’m not talking guitar heroes here!

She definitely had something I'll give her that... interesting seeing her as a blonde. It quite suits her!
I didn't watch the Tudors, but I videoed it for my mum who's 80 and interested in historical stuff. About halfway through the series, Louise said, "are you sure you should be doing that? There's always loads o0f shagging... and this week there was even a bum rape."
Mum never seemed to object though.
BTW, thanks for Kirsten.
She does have the most extraordinary eyes - a little like Rene Zewilliger, Ive always thought.
Even though Anne got the chop, I think Natalie still has that certain something, Steve!
My mum's 76 and she encouraged me to watch "The Tudors" with her, Rol! Quite glad I did now!! I take it Louise watches it, too!!! ;-)
The eyes most definitely have it, Stuart!
