This folder is so we can recommend royal themed movies, TV shows, documentary's, mini-movies... you get the drift. I will post one to start.

***This particular thread is NOT for the general or specific discussion of any royals media. If you would like to either comment on something you saw or question something you want to see please start a thread per my example.***

Great thread Colleen. There have been so many good recommendations for shows to watch. It will be great to have them all in one folder.

Kimberly (kimberly_b) Has anyone watched the Showtime show The Tudors? I know it isn't very historically accurate, but I was wondering if anyone recommends it anyway. I keep hearing good things about it, but not from anyone who is well-read or into HF.

You are welcome Kate and Lyn! I was fooling around in the TL one and figured I should start one here too.

Kimberly, there is a raging discussion on that show in the Tudor History Lovers group. In a nutshell everyone agrees it is hideously inaccurate but the director makes up for it with incredibly lush scenery and costumes and enough eye candy to send a person into a diabetic coma. All in all if you can ignore the historic inaccuracies you should enjoy the show.

Kimberly (kimberly_b) Haha, I love your description of it as "eye candy to send a person into a diabetic coma"! LOL! You have confirmed all of my suspicions then. It probably be behoove me to brush up on my Tudor history before watching it, lest I become confused with the Hollywood version of history.

Kate. | 174 comments Ive just started on season 2 of The Tudors
God i love the actor who plays Charles Brandon.
The real one certainly didnt look like him.
It was so sad when they banished Katherine.

Apology accepted, lol. You can start a thread on it or go over the Tudor History Lovers and help the thread there. I post a lot in the Tudor group on this particular thread so it makes me look like I am talking to myself. ;)

Bonus Kate, the Tudor group thread on this show has a lot of tasty links courtesy yours truly!
