Episode 3.5 of The Tudors is a spectacular piece of television, because grieving Henry allows none to comfort him after the death of Jane except for (Will Somers) the Court Fool, played by David Bradley (Filch!). True to form, Henry is bonkers and the Fool tells him things he needs to hear:

Henry: Hey.
Fool: Majesty (looks at Henry's mad drawings)
Henry: well, what do you think?
Fool: I don't think. Are you mad? Thinking is dangerous. But I'll wink. (winks)
Henry: Idiot.
Fool: (laughing) What? What about you? Think about it, You find the perfect wife, she's sweet, pliable, she even has good tits. On top of that she gives you the son you've always wanted. And you let her die. Jesus, Christ of mercy, and you think I'm the idiot? And she's not the only one. Poor, abandoned Catherine—
Henry: Careful.
Fool: And that other one, whose name escapes me, as her head escaped her. All lost, all lost.
Henry: go to hell!
Fool: What, go there? I thought I'd already arrived. For surely gracious lord this, is hell.

Seriously, the ep ends with Henry's reform declarations, which are pretty much Catholicism, and the fool sitting on the throne in the empty throne room, wearing the crown and laughing drunkenly. That's good tv.

Love the hair. It makes you look even younger than you are.

And Vi is as adorable as ever. BTW, she's starting to look more like a little girl than a toddler.

It's all awesome.

Oh my god, cute haircut! I like your shirt, too.

Cute child as well. CUTENESS ABOUNDS.

I think I may need to see the Tudors just cuz Filch is in it.

It was just the one episode, but he was great in it. and if you know anything about the time period you'll have some head thumping moments, but season three is especially policy heavy, and I'm liking that.

Augh, FINALLY. No one seems to watch this thing but me. Wish to discuss the Tudors with you! It's so ridiculously addicting - I was feverishly downloading the leaked pre-air s4 eps last weekend while slapping my arm shouting, "Come on, come ON!"

Haircut is adorable.
