(Luke Norris) will be treating George Warleggan (
Jack Farthing) from the trauma after the loss of his wife. The slogan of the final season is - If your country betrays you, to whom do you then owe loyalty?
I've never watched this series and it's too bad, because it looks quite entertaining.
ReplyDeleteI think you can still catch it, it had just eight episodes per season.
DeleteThe Witcher has potential!
ReplyDeleteI'm hoping it will become the greatest new show this year!
DeleteI think the Brits need real people like Ross Poldark (despite his many faults).
ReplyDeleteThey say the leading actor furnished his kitchen with items taken from the set. Perhaps, he was given permission.
I've read it too, I don't know what he took exactly, his estate of Nampara in the series is a rather ugly village house :) maybe he stole from the neighbours. His character really is heroic in the series, which makes his constantly nagging wife even more irritating as she does not appreciate him.
DeleteWe've been waiting to see The Witcher. Henry (Didn't my autocorrect call him Herbert once?) is one I can't wait to feast my eyes upon once again!
ReplyDeleteIt is my most anticipated series this year, I so miss him on the telly! I remember we were the first ones to discover him in Tudors and he is still burning bright!
DeleteYep, it was his role in Tudors that made me take notice. I think I liked him even more than Jonathan Rhys Meyers in it.
DeleteDuke Charles Brandon was our fave, and that blond lord from the court that was gay and died from sweating fever :( I still adore the Canadian actor that played him who was previously their Olympic athlete. And also Mariah Doyle Kennedy as Catherine of Aragon, it is a travesty what they did with her character in Spanish Princess one of the most atrocious series I've watched.
