Season 2 is nowhere near as raunchy as Season 1! It can be a bit clunky, but generally it's very watchable and the costumes are fab. I'm 2 eps behind at the moment what with being on hols, it finishes soon so must catch up even though I know the ending!

There will be a season 3 next year, I think. Joss Stone is Anne of Cleves!

The programme has turned into a definite 'must watch' in our house. When we're away, we're recording it (or whatever you call that Sky programme saving option thingie). Alone for the lovely selection of male side characters :p and the triumph when you spot yet another gap in their research, intended or not. It's great fun to watch, though. Nothing more, nothing less. :D

However, I was watching the first episode of a new series called 'Merlin' last night. Aimed at kids (with no knowledge of history), I laughed so much in places that I'm not sure I'll be punishing myself again by watching another episode. Poor old Arthur...

Hmmm.... A frumpy, harpsichord-playing, German virgin weirdo. I can't wait! :p
