I was utterly enchanted by this film. The characters were wonderful, the CGI was amazing, and the story was very captivating. Well worth a watch.

Keith Michell was born to play this role. He perfectly encapsulated the transition from a young, lusty King, into an infirm, obese, frail and regretful Monarch. His supporting cast was amazing calling into prominence the great actor Donald Pleasance as the devious and obsequious Thomas Cromwell. Bernard Hemmings is also superb, as were the actresses who portrayed his discarded Queens, all but the last. I recommend this film heartily to anyone remotely interested in the Tudor period.

To be honest, this film was utterly mesmerising to watch. The lovers who were divided by their class, the families of wealth and privilege, suffering sadly and in desperation. Well worth a watch.

Personally, the sight of Ron Perlman in full female mode - apart from the cigar smoking - is worth a watch. Charlie Hunnam is great as the put-upon brother, and Chris Noth is a fun character. If you don't take it too seriously, it's a very entertaining watch. Not a great plot, but the cast steps up in trouper form.

Richard Attenborough was superb. He portrayed Christie so well, a chilling performance. Well worth a watch, even now, for the entire cast was amazing in this depiction of sadly, a true story.

I have watched this series several times now, and there's always something that I have missed. The cast is quite incredible, and the chilling facts of the true story are well depicted. Well worth a watch.

I'm afraid that it did Diana no favours, depicting her as quite flakey, which she could be. Great acting though.

What a journey! The intrigue, machinations, and downright lies of that period in history. The acting was brilliant, the costumes superb. Well worth a watch.

I never tire of watching this movie. There are always bits that I miss, and everyone makes their own unique contribution to the story.

To be honest, I'm both riveted and fascinated by this Netflix series. Raphael Rowe is an excellent presenter, due mainly to his personal experience of having been incarcerated for a crime he did not commit. Instead of wallowing in bitterness for what happened to him, he used his prison time to further his education, and make a career for himself. He is put through everything that a convicted criminal has to undergo when admitted to a prison, but he has the knack of finding his feet very quickly, and engaging with so many different people from all parts of the world. A very interesting and worthwhile watch.
