Discussion: 'The Flight of the Secretary'

"There are no strong characters... soo lame! I think this season is likely going to be more Male Dominated, all about the Guys. Anne Come Back To Life!

I must rake my brains for something.... But Reggie, your contribution is real good, it makes me hate Richard Rich even more!!! Grrr!"

"Oooh, I like the idea of a little Rich punishment...the guy's got it coming. Have you seen Ep 2 yet, Reg? It's in the 'Episode 2 Season 3 on YouTube' thread if you haven't. *sighs* Come back Natalie with your fierceness. I knew I'd miss her, but I never thought *this* much... :("

"I knew I was going to mourn a little for Natalie/Anne.. but seriously after watching the 2 new Ep's.... I am like dying for her to come back! If she has to come back as a ghost, then so be it. Bring on a dead Anne! Also it's not like they (the show) hasn't done that already... They had that freaky twin come back when she died from the sweat... That was weird and unnecessary.

Richard Rich is going to die. One way or another. "

"I think that was a ghost Maggie, but i was hoping they'd bring Anne back during the episodes where Cromwell will be imprisoned in the tower, and suddenly he'll be overwhelmed with regret, ya know, just to show that he does feel some remorse for what happened to her (although i doubt he really did), but then again... Thomas Wyatt was historically a participant in the Pilgrimage of Grace, yet, no sign of Jamie (deep mournful sigh!)."

"I never did get that whole Thomas Tantalus/Tallis/Tatlers (whatever his name was) thing - what was the point of him being in the show? "

"I'd kind of liked to have seen Anne as a ghost or a memory in the Tower, too; it might have been cheesy, I guess, but it would have emphasised the irony of Cromwell's fate. I loved that scene in Season 2 after Henry has his accident, and Anne goes to pray. Cromwell turns up to pray as well, she turns to look at him, and then there is this amazing juxtaposition shot of the two of them, kneeling with their hands clasped, like Henry's victims lined up for the slaughter. It was brilliant. More Anne/Cromwell scenes was something I missed in S2; was it just me, or did they have some fierce chemistry going on?"

"Like Electric Fire! You kinda wanted them to not speak for a moment, look into each other's eyes.. then just catapult to each other, ripped the clothes off the other.... just a hot mess really.... *Hopes no one thinks she's some sexual deviant...* gahahah!

I think the show would have Cromwell be sad, and remorseful about Anne. Memories will pop up about her, when he's in the tower, in his shirt.... Maybe that's all he'll be wearing.... Ok... I am getting to be creeper. "

"I never did get that whole Thomas Tantalus/Tallis/Tatlers (whatever his name was) thing - what was the point of him being in the show? I'm afraid Rich lived a rich and happy life Maggie..... so you'll have to do him in yourself (horribly please)"

"Also loved the scenes where Anne was giving him stick about snaffling all the goodies for himself and Hen - he had to stand there and take it but you could just see he was exploding with rage inside."
