"Wolf Hall", the mini-series

Coming to a TV screen near you sometime ... Well, it had to happen. First there was news of a Royal Shakespeare Co. stage adaptation of WH, now a forthcoming BBC2 mini-series encompassing both Wolf Hall and Bring Up the Bodies has been announced.

This was announced a while ago, I've already read speculation as to who will play Cromwell - apparently one columnist thinks he's the perfect man!
