anne-marie is beautiful and looks every inch the virgin queen.her eyes say so much.what a fantastic actress.

[Capercaillie100]

The theme song for this is actually taken from a poem written by her Majesty.

truthfully, i was never a fan of her mother anne. and after finding out elizabeth 1 secretly funded the slave trades of africans, not too much of a fan of her either, but to try and prosecute her because theyve hated her mother, seems wrong.

she ended up being a great queen on england.

True, Elizabeth turned out to be a good queen, but the truth is she shouldn't have even exsisted. The only reason she came into being was because her mother was a trouble making whore and her father didn't know how to be faithful to his only true wife and queen, Katherine of Aragon.

Why would Elizabeth be praying the rosary? She wasn't Catholic, she was protestant. I suppose she was just pretending to pray to save her butt and make others think she was a Catholic so she wouldn't get into trouble or something. However, that is offensive. Pretending to pray, including the rosary, most likely angers God. And pretending to be something you're not [for example, Elizabeth pretending to be Catholic] is ignorant and a mockery.

The rebel Thomas Wyatt we see here being tortured had in the 1520s-early 1530s been a great Tudor court poet (first to introduce the Italian sonnet to England through his translations, then original imitations of Petrarch) and a lover of Anne Boleyn (likely subject of his poem "They Flee From Me That Sometime Did Me Seek" wherein she wears a necklace engraved Nolo me tendere [Touch Me Not], for Caesars [Henry 8's mistress] I am." Beyond tragic, this torture of a gifted and noble poet & patriot.

[JudgeJulieLit]

Fascinating to see the young Elizabeth being attended by Lettyce Knollys -- mother of the future Earl of Essex and daughter of Catherine Carey, Elizabeth's first cousin as daughter of "that other Boleyn girl" Mary (sister of Anne Boleyn who'd preceded Anne as H8's mistress) and likely too Elizabeth's bastard half sister fathered by H8. So yes, that makes Elizabeth's future heartthrob Essex (stepson of QE1's first lover Robert Dudley) both her first cousin 2x removed & her half great nephew.

I had watched Elizabeth R, Elizabeth I, The Golden Age and Helen Mirren's performance but I had overlooked this one. Being a fan of Henry VIII mini drama and Charles II, I might watch this one. Ann Marie Duff is such a good actress and looks like Elizabeth very much. I like what I hear about this mini drama and its accuracy.

the only reason i wanted to watch this was because i heard bryan morrison was in it. but i think that i am just going to watch all of the episodes now.

[wasilaify]

:O I can't believe there's yet a drama series about Elizabeth I I hadn't heard about.

[Nami953]

[poohpie101]
