Sir Thomas More did in fact lose his head this episode and Thomas Cromwell was there every step of the way, watching. Do you think Cromwell had any remorse over the death of More, or do you think he was plotting More's downfall the entire time?

Attempts to legitimize the King's marriage and increase his power encounter unmovable obstacles such as Sir Thomas More (Jeremy Northam) and Bishop Fisher who insist that only God can be head of the church. Imprisoned in the Tower of London, they face likely execution unless they take the Oath of Allegiance.

Meanwhile, Henry's wandering eye continues to roam.

What a tear-jerker of an episode, from two intense mother-daughter moments to the stubbornness of Sir Thomas More refusing to swear the Oath. Which begs the question, do you think he did the right thing? Should he have spared his conscience for the sake of his family?

The Tudors Question of the Day

How about episode 3, huh? We go from a murder in a church to the birth of a baby in just under an hour! So here are my questions: Do you think it's hypocritical of Anne to be lecturing her servants about not being lewd when she herself worked her way into the King's bed with exactly that type of behavior? Also, isn't it ironic that Anne's disappointing daughter ends up being one of the most prolific rulers of all time?

Two Scenes from Episode 4 of The Tudors

uestions of faith dominate the court. As the infant Princess Elizabeth is baptized, the 'Act of Succession' is unveiled declaring that only children of Henry and Anne are legitimate successors to the English throne. A law is passed where every Royal subject must take an oath, on pain of death, recognizing the validity of the King's new marriage and the supremacy of Henry VIII in all matters.

Oh snap!

First, Henry won't allow Anne to breastfeed baby Lizzie. (Somebody call La Leche!)

Then, Pope Paul III calls Henry out on his defiance by throwing in his hat:
