First series was great but the book this is based on was by far the weakest of the trilogy so hope it works.

Loved the part in the book when the shit finally hits the fan for Cromwell. Hopefully the movie does it justice.

R2 I think everyone who loved the first two agrees with you, as did the Booker Prize judges.

The first two books are fantastic. The third is good but hits a dry patch about three quarters of the way through. However, it recovers when, as R3 says, the shit hits the fan for Cromwell, which is utterly gripping reading. I can't wait to see Mark Rylance play it.

I started watching this on Sunday. I think it’s the first season .

It has the lovely lady from The Crown.

Love the look of it except that it’s so dark sometimes, but that’s life without electricity and only candles

Overcome by Tudor fever? How to live your Wolf Hall fantasies at Britain's historical houses

Is it a bird? Is it the plague? No, it’s Tudor fever. From Hollywood to history buffs, this most dramatic of eras has long reigned supreme in the public imagination. From Shakespeare In Love to The Other Boleyn Girl, from Six: The Musical to courtly haute couture, the labyrinthine politics and ostentatious aesthetics of the 1600s never go out of style. With the release of Wolf Hall: The Mirror and the Light, though, the nation is rapt with Tudormania. And as acolytes of The House of Henry make pilgrimages to the real-life country piles and palaces that have been hitting our screens in this most lauded of period dramas, there’s never been a better time to run a historical house.

Hampton Court Palace is at the top of the list of period properties to visit. As the heart of King Henry VIII’s court, it plays host to the most dramatic scenes in The Mirror and the Light, as well as Tatler's January 2025 cover shoot. With the likes of Sir Mark Rylance and Damian Lewis making deadly deals over elaborate dinner banquets, the halls of Hampton Court have been integral to the success of the BBC’s Hilary Mantel adaptation, so it’s no wonder that audiences have been keen to pay the palace a visit.
