A channel mainly focused on reviewing historical movies (particularly those depicting the Tudor and Stuart eras) and presenting short videos on primarily military matters of those eras. I may occasionally wander off onto other topics such as WW2 and the Napoleonic Wars.

The Downfall of Anne Boleyn in a Nutshell
I remember seeing these episodes on PBS in my youth. Acting is superb. Filmed in the early 1970s and to this day I still believe they are far more superior to anything that came later regarding Henry VIII.
My goodness such criticisms. It was a TV show.
So why does it being on TV make it exempt from criticism? Also, I like the series overall, doesn't mean it cannot be analysed.
The beginning song is "Waterloo Original Soundtrack - Napoleon Returns" if you were wondering like me.
Rob Brydon and Steve Coogan do great imitations of this actor's Henry in the Trip to.Greece.
The average person can't process what your saying when you talk so fast. 🕊 I did slow it down.
Is that not Oliver Cromwell in the painting??
7:50 was it at least better than his complete butchering of Mark Gat- I mean Mycroft Holmes?
Wolf Hall is brilliant, everything about it is sheer class.
Did you know that the actor who played Lord Willoughby in this episode was the great-nephew of Charles Lightoller of Titanic fame?
This production makes the same costuming mistake that most do for this period. The majority of the men are shown constantly wearing Cavelier "riding" boots. Unless actually engaged in outdoor sports and actually riding, men of this period would be wearing stockings and shoes. Look at any painting, illustration or tapestry of the period. Tudor men did NOT wear riding boots in general for everyday activities, formal events, at court, while dancing, or dining. Specifically, Henry was a vain man and very proud of his muscular calves. In EVERY formal full-length portrait of him, he is wearing stockings and shoes that show them off.
when full vid out?
Each of Henry's six queens, played to perfection by actresses who embodied their roles with such unique flair, emotion, gladness, sadness, and quiet dignity. I've always wondered if there had been a program where the cast, or main actors, had appeared together, maybe in front of a studio audience. They were all so brilliantly talented people. I am sure many of us who watched and enjoyed 'The Six Wives of Henry VIII' over the years, would enjoy the opportunity to view such a wonderful group, and even stand up to ask the cast questions of what it was like to act out in a brilliant piece of British history. A fascinating six part drama I make a point of watching every November. It seems to be the perfect comfort zone for me, before the hectic, yet lovely, holiday season.
Funny you say that, Keith Michell was on "This is You Life" in 1972 when he was filming 'Henry VIII and His Six Wives'. I have been lucky enough to see the episode (although I made a promise not to use any footage of it, which I will keep), Lynne Frederick talks a bit about filming the movie with him, then most of the rest of the program is his acting career, and at the end five of the actresses from the TV series come out at the end (Angela Pleasance I think was missing). This site has some screenshots from it: www.bigredbook.info/keith_michell.html
14:00😭
Great stuff. Don't give any respect to that furball Lindybeige. He's such a Terribly Wooly And Turgid (TWAT), self righteous and self regarding twat
Are you gonna talk about the Wolf Hall trailer next?
