Comments on: F.B.D Update: Jonathan Rhys Meyers! http://www.lovebscott.com/2007/04/19/fbd-update-jonathan-rhys-meyers/ Mon, 23 Nov 2009 16:31:23 -0700 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.6 hourly 1 By: Fred http://www.lovebscott.com/2007/04/19/fbd-update-jonathan-rhys-meyers/#comment-4985 Fred Mon, 23 Apr 2007 03:55:44 +0000 http://www.lovebscott.com/?p=6417#comment-4985 I too was really enjoying the Tudors until the 04/22/07 episode. I hate revisionist history and the total disregard of “factual history” concerning Henry’s sister Margaret was appalling. Mararet never went to Portugal nor did she ever marry (not alone murder) the king of Portugal. In fact, in 1503, Henry VIII’s sister Margaret married James IV, king of Scotland, thus becoming the mother of James V and grandmother of Mary Queen of Scots. Most important of all, Margaret's marriage to James was to lead directly to the Union of the Crowns. Fate, it was once argued, had intended Margaret to be Queen of Scots. Born on 29 November 1489, she was christened on the 30th—St. Andrew's Day—in St. Margaret's Church, Westminster, dedicated to Scotland's only royal saint. In all Margaret was to be married three times, and her history in this regard might be said to parallel that of her granddaughter, Mary Queen of Scots, with its liberal mixture of tragedy, intrigue, duplicity and simple farce. Why, in God’s name, did you feel it was necessary to make-up a completely ficticious plot line concerning Margaret. You now throw in doubt the veracity of the entire series!

I love Jonathan's Irish brogue when he's on talk shows, but Henry Cavill is SUPER HOT. Did you see him in all his glory in the first episode! Thanks goodness for On Demand!! I agree Linds.
