New Norfolk and Gardiner! And Harriet Walter as Maggie Pole, she was great as Margaret Beaufort in The Spanish Princess.
When I first read the description under Henry's image, I thought they were trying to do something clever by combining VIII and villian. But they weren't aha.

If the creators of the wolf hall tv show had wanted to be really cunty they’d have timed it so the last episode aired on the 28th of July

i don't really feel like i have any insights lately, like none of this actually matters. it doesn't, really.
and what's more, existing here as myself has just become uncomfortable. between the near-constant refrain that h/ilary m/antel was the greatest woman who ever lived, and reblogs of l/ochiels on my dash....i've come to feel that transgender ppl are regarded an afterthought in this community at best, a nuisance at worst. there's no happiness or warmth or inspiration here, anymore. i'll be locking this all up again, for the forseeable future.

in my heart linda has like 2935938 minutes of screen time every season, she's just so satisfying to watch for me, need to put her in a jar and shake her around a little, etc

Also, I gotta say, having watched Y Golau and Four just a few months before made the twist ending of Wolf much funnier.

I saw your post on how much you hate the reign (XD) and wanted to ask what is a show you feel intensely about and why? 👀
Thank you for the ask!
I’ll be honest, I kinda play up my hatred for shows like Bridgerton and Reign because in reality I know they’re fantasy and not supposed to be historical (my only real gripe with them is that they use real historical figures but eh, that’s more of a nitpick though I do have some legitimate criticisms for bridgerton but I won’t get into those)
I suppose if there’s anything that I intensely dislike, it’s not really one particular show but a whole genre, I think I’ve mentioned it before, it’s those series’s that claim to be telling the real stories of women from history but miss the mark entirely and make them a caricature of an empowering woman (not to use a bit of a meme word here but I think the word ‘girlbossify’ is very appropriate here)
This is particularly noticeable with Tudor dramas (like any adaptation of Philippa Gregory’s works like The Spanish Princess, The White Queen, The White Princess, The Other Boleyn Girl, etc. which are already bad for this I’d like to mention, the recent channel 5 Anne Boleyn miniseries, the recent(ish) Mary, Queen of Scots movie, and a few more I’m probably missing) but I have seen it with other time periods as well
I could talk at length about how reducing an actual human woman to a caricature is not the win for feminism directors think it is, but why would I do that when I can aptly summarise my issue with a quote from one of my favourite history youtubers The Laughing Cavalier where he described one of these characters as ‘Joan of Arc on steroids’ 🙃

The only minor bad thing about Wolf Hall s2 is that my man Thomas More isn't getting a Wolsey like flashback. What Cromwell needs is clearly another burden as he goes through what's left of his life.

just recently finished watching Endeavour and just now finished my rewatch of Wolf Hall and they are now both turning round and round and round in my head on roughly the same wavelength and I don't know what to do with myself anymore

Is it me or do I notice a chunk of Wolf Hall fans tend to not like Anne Boleyn. I think a lot of it has to do with how she was portrayed in both the show and the books...
I like her, a lot...but i notice a lot of people don't.

Dr Emmerson did you just call Field of the Cloth of Gold “Woodstock on steroids”? 🤣🤦‍♀️
Not even 10 minutes in and I feel like I’m back in 2009.
