Uneasy Lies the Head That Wears the Crown

Sun, Jan 13, 201952 mins

While Albert takes an interest in the plights of the common people, including the loyal Chartists, to understand the 1848 revolutions sweeping Europe, Victoria is absorbed by her ever-growing family and blindly sympathizes with toppled French king Louis Philippe. Both reprimand the PM for failing to restrain foreign minister Lord Palmerston, who openly applauds the 'downfall of tyranny' while fraternizing with the working class and decide to offer asylum to the French ex-king, more warmly then they welcome Victoria's half-sister Feodora, who fled Baden. An experienced new valet joins the palace staff, seamstress Skerrett dates a Chartist and presents one to Victoria to convince her they're neither dangerous nor violent, but the police makes arrests after finding hundreds of rifles with them.

Wolf Hall

2 Seasons
England in the 1520s is a heartbeat from disaster. If the King dies without a male heir, the country could be destroyed by civil war. Henry VIII wants to annul his marriage of twenty years and marry Anne Boleyn. The Pope and most of Europe oppose him. Into this impasse steps Thomas Cromwell: a wholly original man, a charmer, and a bully, both idealist and opportunist, astute in reading people, and implacable in his ambition. But Henry is volatile: one day tender, one day murderous. Cromwell helps him break the opposition, but what will be the price of his triumph?
