I like Elizabeth in this scene! What are you peopel talking about I think she really shines in the scenes she's in!

I love the moments between Henry and his children. The good, loving, sweet ones. :)

@SenseOrSensibility That is not quite accurate. Anne never remarried after Henry VIII and her divorced. What you may be thinking of would be after Henry's death, Catherine Parr (his sixth and final wife) married Thomas Seymour, and the couple took Elizabeth into their home. Elizabeth and Thomas allegedly had an affair, and as you say, they were discovered. After this Elizabeth was sent away. But Anne of Cleves is certainly not the one you are thinking of.

I like how Anne and Elizabeth are shown having a warm mother/daughter relationship. It's too bad that Anne later married a man who sexually molested Elizabeth and blamed her for it when Anne caught him with her on one occasion. There was a whole investigation about it, but Elizabeth ended up leaving Anne's home and Anne's husband got off scotch-free.

That girls been neglected, ignored, talked about. Elizabeth and Mary both went through alot.

I think Elizabeth did a GREAT JOB. She's not beautiful outright, but her looks grow on you, just like Natalie Dormer when she's playing Anne. Natalie is obviously really pretty but when I first started watching, I didn't think so at the time, but by the end she portrayed her role so well it was hard not to think that! And Elizabeth did a great job of portraying some of her mother, like when she curtsies and looks up at the same time and how it seems like she is obviously very witty and sharp

@Serenity113 Elizabeth did not live with Anne of Cleves but Anne of Cleves often inviter her and Mary. if I am not mistaken, she was raised by Lady Bryan and then by Catherine Ashley.

[Serenity113]

Elizabeth was living with Anne of Cleves? Who raised Elizabeth?

SHOWTIME: You idiots. Don't you know you ditched out one of Elizabeth's most influential experiences. Robert Dudley's meeting at childhood. Sir Thomas Seymour's affair. You have deprived me of my Elizabeth at youth. My Queen as a girl. (by the way, totally random, but a great book of Liz's life is in "Legacy" the novel of her from birth to death, beautiful) In any case, this little red headed girl playing her was stunning - could've tried to be a little more like Natalie, lips and gracefullness.
