This play tells the history of Anne Boleyn from the stage to the guillotine from the perspective of Thomas Cromwell. You need to have a certain degree of understanding of British history to understand it more clearly. When I was watching "Another Boleyn Girl", I felt that in pursuit of the...

I am no history buff and haven't read the book(yet) and I basically know nothing about the history of Tudor England except that the king had many wives...however I was hooked after watching the first episode Three Card Trick and the second episode Entirely Beloved was even better but I think I need...

Compared with the brutal erotic bloodthirsty of American dramas, British dramas are definitely much slower to heat up. Last year's BBC2 set of popular "Wolf Hall" is a typical British restraint.

Since I went to college, I have rarely watched this kind of historical documentary TV series, because I feel that history has nothing to do with right or wrong, only choices, remember a sentence, take history as a mirror, you can know the rise and fall, but living in this era, this peaceful and...
