FEATURES:
Intro:
Focusing on the early years of King Henry VIII's reign, THE TUDORS
looks at the colourful personal life and tremendously influential
political life of the monarch. King Henry VIII (Jonathan Rhys
Meyers) was obsessed with having a male heir, which led to him
marrying six times. Rome's decision not to grant him a divorce led
to him taking on the power of the Catholic Church, changing
Christianity forever in England. Features all 20 episodes of the
first and second series of THE TUDORS.
Season 1:
Passion, ambition and treachery collide in this compelling, daring,
big budget drama about the tumultuous early part of King Henry
VIII's infamous 40-year reign...Bold and passionate about his
country and his women, King Henry’s obsession with ensuring his
legacy led to beheading friends and foes, waging wars and
challenging the Catholic Church – events that would forever change
the British Empire.
Pulling few punches and garnering its
fair share of headlines as a result, The Tudors is a controversial
yet compelling period piece that dramatically tells the story of the
early years of King Henry VIII. Not for nothing, though, has it
attracted its fair share of awards attention.
The Tudors is a complex drama, and not one to simplify its
storyline. The young Henry, for instance, is exploring his muddled
romances and his insecurities against the challenges his kingdom is
facing. It’s a plateful for him to deal with, and in the hands of a
superb performance from Jonathan Rhys Meyers--a real revelation in
the role--as the young Henry, it’s all vividly and skilfully knitted
together.
But The Tudors isn’t just about its central character, for there’s a
terrific supporting cast at work here too. Sam Neill’s Cardinal
Wolsey, Jeremy Northam’s Thomas More and Natalie Dormer’s Ann Boleyn
are just some who earn plaudits here. Behind the camera there’s the
pen of Elizabeth writer Michael Hirst at work, and he too deserves
much credit, clearly getting his teeth into the fascinating subject
matter.
The Tudors is, undoubtedly, a graphic production, and earns its 15
certificate comfortably. It’s also been knocked for the liberties it
takes with history when putting its story across--with some
justification. But it’s also most certainly terrific television,
mixing high production values with strong performances. In short,
the ten episodes here will simply have you thirsting for the next
series. Not before you’ve re-watched season one a few times, though…

Season 2:
Focusing on the early
years of King Henry VIII's reign, THE TUDORS looks at the colourful
personal life and tremendously influential political life of the
monarch. King Henry VIII (Jonathan Rhys Meyers) was obsessed with
having a male heir, which led to him marrying six times. Rome's
decision not to grant him a divorce led to him taking on the power
of the Catholic Church, changing Christianity forever in England. In
the second series of THE TUDORS, Henry is free to marry Anne Boleyn
(Natalie Dormer). But there is turmoil ahead. Features all ten
episodes of the second series.
Season 3:
Mining one of history's
most infamous figures to create a rich episodic drama, Showtime's THE TUDORS
takes on the early life of King Henry VIII, played by Jonathan Rhys Meyers
(MATCH POINT). With enough rivalries, scandals, and debauchery to make MELROSE
PLACE blush, the engrossing series follows the 16th-century monarch's ascent to
power, political battles, and personal ruthlessness. No stuffy costume drama,
THE TUDORS boasts a talented acting ensemble that includes Peter O'Toole
(LAWRENCE OF ARABIA) as Pope Paul III and Jeremy Northam (GOSFORD PARK) as Sir
Thomas More. This collection presents all episodes of the third series.
