More Wolf Hall

[tealin]

Last night was the last episode of Wolf Hall. Alas! What shall I do with my Wednesday nights now?

Well, last for a while anyway ... they've optioned the third book but it's still being written, sooo ... we've got a bit of a Sherlock scenario going on ... except we know how it's going to end. Even if you didn't know how it was going to end you could probably guess because we've had foreshadowing liek woah, only done nice and subtly and neatly, not like a 2x4 to your head, which is why I love this show and everything about it so much.

It's all yours now, North America! PBS, April 5th! Bee there or bee a rectangular thynge!

Wolf Hall makes me want to go back and watch The Government Inspector. I heard at the time it was good but I avoided it because it sounded depressing.

The Godfather is a good comparison. Wolf Hall also has that sense of brooding and unspeakable power which can only lead to bad things to come.

Gosh I didn't even know about that – what a great story to dramatise! Thanks for the recc, I'll definitely have to look that up, though perhaps after a margin of time given who's the lead actor. :)
