A sign of passion
whoever leaves these signs exhibits the following:
(a) idle lifestyle with plenty of spare time;
(b) great passion for Jeremy since only a passionate feeling can lead to such a deep hatred. Wow! This man can obviously drive people mad! :)

A triple Crown for Jeremy Northam
I hope all of Jeremy's fans are dutifully gunning for him to score a "Triple Crown" in the Best Supporting Actor category-- Emmy, Golden Globe, and SAG. I'd love to see that!

After Ann's head was cut off there was a flash of feathers
of the Swan being killed and then of her as a child. Was she being carried by her father or her lover Wyatt and what do you think the director was saying in that clip?

An Emmy for Jeremy Northam
Northam's Emmy Should Be Welded Right About Now... May 1, 2008
.
But the real standout performance that, indeed, is one of the show's saving graces is that of Jeremy Northam's understatedly outstanding role of Sir Thomas More.
With the recent passing of two of the Catholic Saint's more noted portrayers, Paul Scofield, and Charlton Heston, there is a certain profundity in watching Northam inhibit the part with his own sense of dramatic timing. One redeeming quality of the series is that it allows a lenghthier portrayal of certain facets of the lives of the main characters, and there is something commendable about seeing More as a warm, loving, and pious husband, father, and professional.
By Episode 5 of Season 2, we've seen his children grow up, and join their stepmother, Alice, (Catherine Byrne) in begging the incarcerated More to take the Oath of Allegience to The King as the Supreme Head of the Church, which More, like Bishop Fisher(Bosco Hogan in another great performance) refuses to do. More's Latin prayers are recited with intense fervor; the staidness and humility that turn to fire during the trial for his life are also valiantly displayed.
This is the performance by Northam that really made me take note of him, and through his efforts, we feel that the moral courage of the blessed Chancellor will be felt for all seasons and for all time.
I trust that Northam's Emmy is being welded right about now. It would be a travesty if this is not so.

Anne Boleyn - do you think she now sympathised with Katherine?
As Anne starts to realise Henry's love for her is disappearing and he now wants someone else, do you think she starts to feel how Katherine of Aragon felt? Do you think she felt sorry for her, now she knows how it feels? Does anyone know of any references to her thoughts on this?

Anne Boleyn - Protagonist or Pawn?
The following was posted on page 2 of the Anne Boleyn profile and rather than muddy that up, I thought it might be good to start a thread on this subject here:
Anyone who did not agree to Henry's assumption as head of the Church of England or to Ann's daughter replacing the rightful heir, Mary Tudor, daughter of Katharine of Aragon, was sent to the block or the scaffold; she may not have actually sent them to their deaths, but her vengeful and petty machinations did. Among those were Thomas More, John Fisher, and many other clerics; she was responsible for the downfall of Thomas Wolsey, the King's friend and able counselor (unlike More and Fisher, Wolsey had no qualms of conscience in carrying out the King's will; he was just unfortunate enough to be unable to secure the divorce and to have incurred Ann's enmity.) When he fell out of love with Ann, Henry resented the loss of the friends and counselors that love of her had caused him to execute. She was also known to advocate the deaths of Queen Katharine and the Princess Mary. This woman was far from an angel. She just
stepped over or on anyone who stood in her way.
In reply:
-It is simplistic to believe that Anne alone was responsible for the deaths of Wolsey, More & Fisher. The Tudor court politics was made up of factions of influential people who supported their patrons. More & Fisher were supportive of the catholic faction of Katherine and her daughter. They became collateral damage when the Boleyn faction which at the time was supported by Thomas Cromwell & the Protestants had the King's "ear". The reformation was advanced by their deaths. In turn Katherine's daughter Mary executed many many more during her reign.
