This will provide the double benefit of pleasing Henry and making Wolsey the de facto Pope. This is the worst news for Henry and his annulment aspirations, because the Pope cannot be relied upon to rule in his favor as a prisoner of Charles, who has sworn to do what he can to help Katherine.īut the wily Wolsey sees an opportunity: with the Pope held hostage, Wolsey can convene a conclave of Cardinals to approve Henry's request. Henry and Wolsey learned in the previous episode that Pope Clement has been taken hostage by Charles, the Holy Roman Emperor. Here let us look at Episode 6, now available On-Demand. They understood all too well the deadly contagion of illness, even as they let blood as a last resort to help the sick. These fine episodes have some new elements, too - like The Sweats getting England - but I won't give anything away, except to say that the portrayal of doctors and medicine in The Tudors shows how close and far they were to our own times. This is the tectonic heart of the story, moving people and continents closer and further, shaking what's left of the medieval world like dice in a cup till we end up with much like the world of today. You're in for a real treat for the senses and intellect, as Henry continues to pressure the Church to approve an annulment with Katherine so he can marry Anne. I've had the privilege of seeing Showtime's The Tudors through Episode 8.


Listen to 3-min podcast of this review at Levinson news clips Though, Kate Warner from Season 2 would be fine, too. Jack's sister-in-law - Graem's widow - was in the coming attractions. I'll be happy to see definitely Audrey and maybe Heller go, too. Sheesh - doesn't Heller remember that Jack saved his and Audrey's lives two years ago, when Jack called Tony and the two shot their way out of a garage or something and saved Heller and Audrey? And didn't Heller make some serious errors last year? But just as things might be getting a tiny bit better, William Devane - former Secretary Heller, Audrey's father - comes in to CTU and lays an attitude on Jack - stay away from my daughter. Doyle shows he's a good guy, helps Jack get Audrey away from the shrink, and Audrey is able to give Jack one useful piece of information. Nadia, who has taken over from Buchanan, at first is willing to let some robotic, overweening shrink "shock" her back to reality - even though the treatment could kill her. Audrey's catatonic (I'm sorry, but for my money, she always seemed a little catatonic even in the best of circumstances).

And now that Daniels and Lennox have Lisa working for them, we should find out soon. I'm still suspecting Jack's father is somehow involved. So I was naturally suspicious as soon as she stepped off the plane with VP Daniels - the one and only Powers Boothe - on 24 this season, I can't remember exactly how many hours ago.Īnd, sure enough, she's sleeping with Stargate's Michael Shanks, who's some kind of bad guy giving info to the Russians. She was perfect and excellent in that role. I knew Lisa Miller was not to be trusted! First, she's played by Kari Matchett, who last played a woman taken over by some sea creature alien from outerspace on Invasion last year.
