PREMIUM SPOTLIGHT ON BECOMING ELIZABETH EPIC TV SERIES WITH LAVISH NEW CAST PHOTOS FROM THE TUDOR COURT AND TRAILER

 BECOMING ELIZABETH 
BEHOLD THE FUTURE QUEEN!
Becoming Elizabeth will start June 12th
We usually don't have anything to watch in summer, but this year Starz will fill it for us with their new epic TV series BECOMING ELIZABETH and we are celebrating it with lavish new cast photos including Alicia von Rittberg as the future queen and Tom Cullen as lord Seymour. The eight episode historical saga will start June 12th on Starz and Starzplay (their channel on Amazon Prime Video) globally. Long before she ascended the throne, young Elizabeth Tudor (Alicia von Rittberg), was an orphaned teenager who became embroiled in the political and sexual politics of the English court. The death of King Henry VIII sees his nine-year-old son Edward (Oliver Zetterström) take the throne and sets into motion a dangerous scramble for power, when Elizabeth, Edward, and their sister, Mary  (Romola Garai) find themselves pawns in agame between the great families of England and the powers of Europe who vie for control of the country. Thomas Seymour (Tom Cullen), the new King’s

uncle, quickly marries King Henry’s widow,  Catherine Parr (Jessica Raine), but soon takes an interest in the teenage  Elizabeth while Duke of Somerset (John Heffernan), loses no time in claiming the position of Lord Protector for himself when the old King dies.
 
 BECOMING ELIZABETH SAGA
 is the fascinating, untold story of the early life of England’s most iconic Queen. Long before she ascended the throne, young Elizabeth Tudor was an orphaned teenager who became embroiled in the political and sexual politics of the English court. The death of King Henry VIII sets into motion a dangerous scramble for power. His surviving children find themselves pawns in a game between the great families of England and the powers of Europe who vie for control of the country. The world of BECOMING ELIZABETH  is visceral, dangerous, and very bloody; a time in which every man or woman of the court is on the wheel of fortune, which may take them to a position of great power one moment, or the executioner’s block the next. Judgements are rendered quickly, and no one is safe.

 WHO IS AT THE COURT?
Alicia von Rittberg plays Elizabeth I, a teenager who thinks she is an adult and old enough to play the games that she is thrown into after the death of her father. Tom Cullen plays Thomas Seymour, simultaneously charming, playful and funny whilst being hotheaded, ambitious and possibly dangerous – he expects the spoils that ought naturally to fall to the King’s uncle! Romola Garai stars as Mary, Oliver Zetterström as Edward, Jessica Raine as Catherine Parr, John Heffernan as Duke of Somerset, Jamie Parker as John Dudley, Jamie Blackley as Robert Dudley, Jacob Avery as Guildford Dudley, Alexandra Gilbreath as Kat Ashley, Leo Bill as Henry Grey, Bella Ramsey as Jane Grey, Ekow Quartey as Pedro, Alex Macqueen as Stephen Gardiner, and Olivier Huband as Ambassador Guzman. Anya Reiss is the creator and executive producer of the show. Check out the trailer below and tell us what you think. 

  WHAT DID THE SPY THINK?
Dull! Dull is the word to describe this ghastly monotonous affair of a series. Dull casting with dull uninspired lead actress with zero charisma and a dull voice and looks set in dull costumes and sets to which the dull art production and lighting give no shine nor splendour leaving them even more dull. From dull writing and direction, the dullness never ceases to leave this wretched show that does not deserve any of your attention.

status, Peter (Urie) convinces his best friend Nick (Philemon Chambers) to join him for the holidays and pretend that they’re now in a relationship.

the worst holiday programme scheme they've ever had. You can already see from the dark posters that their central series A CHRISTMAS CAROL won't be filled with jingle bells but with creepy sounds, monsters and fog. It is interesting that it will first air in USA on FX on December 19th before moving to BBC on December 22nd!
Christmas Carol 
is a unique and original take on the Charles Dickens’ iconic ghost story by Steven Knight and a haunting, hallucinatory, spine tingling immersion into Scrooge’s dark night of the soul. The three-part special follows Ebenezer Scrooge (Guy Pearce), the miserly cold hearted boss, as he is visited by ghosts from the past, present and future, on a freezing

Christmas Eve. Forced to face up to how his self interested, penny pinching behaviour has impacted his own life and those around him, is it too late for him to save the spirit of Christmas, and himself?
