Behind the Tudors: Hampton Court | SHOWTIME

Natalie Dormer of The Tudors celebrates the 500th anniversary of Henry 8's coronation by touring the Hampton Court palace. All episodes of The Tudors are now streaming with the Paramount+ with SHOWTIME plan.



About The Tudors:
Jonathan Rhys Meyers stars in this original, history-based drama series as the young, vibrant King Henry VIII, a competitive and lustful monarch who navigates the intrigues of the English court and the human heart with equal vigor and justifiable suspicion. Natalie Dormer ("Anne Boleyn"), Jeremy Northam ("Thomas More"), Maria Doyle Kennedy ("Queen Katherine"), James Frain ("Thomas Cromwell") and Peter O'Toole ("Pope Paul III") round out the all-star cast of this lavish epic.

Behind the Tudors: Hampton Court | SHOWTIME

[jeskyaalee]

she said herself that she 'geeked' herself out for the role of Anne Boleyn. But it is also said that she is an A grade history student. She is the perfect person to take these tours from the cast

Natalie Dormer is perfect for Anne Boleyn. The way she talks is intense, intelligent, and very provocative at the same time. Exactly how I imagine Anne Boleyn to be.

[shyfly]

I love Natalie Dormer! She was, in my opinion, the best potrayal of Anne Boleyn there has ever been. I missed her so much on the Tudors, I'm glad I can still watch all of the episodes of season 1 and 2.

[Charmredux]

Wow, Natalie's not only a great actress but she has definitely proved herself to be a good presenter too!

[kellydoub]

Anne Boleyn to me is the most famous of all of Henry's queens. She was a woman ahead of her time and I believe if she was living in this century she would also be famous for whatever she chose to do. "The Six Wives of Henry VIII by Alison Weir is a great book all about their lives before and during their marriage to their King.

I miss The Tudors. We need more shows like this and The Borgias and Borgia based on real history.

[Shaestel]

There is a haunted gallery, where Katherine Howard apparently has been seen running, and screaming for Henry's mercy. I've been and there is a very odd feeling about the corridor: you definitely feel paranoid in there.

[juanitarichards]

I'd give anything to be allowed to live in a garden shed there, or at Hever. Just to be there, where it all happened. My friend from Cornwall says you can smell the history seeping out of the walls of the old castles and palaces and can feel the atmosphere and what it must have been like to be there. After The Tudors were on TV I bought the boxed set and the entire soundtrack, and I decorated my whole house as The Tudor Court.

[tanyamhami]

Again Natalie’s performance as Anne was outstanding!

[BritainiaNumberOne]

Without Ann Boleyn, there would not be Queen Elizabeth I, who I consider and adore as one of the greatest monarchs of all time.

[LisasMami]

I wonder what they did with these wonderful, wonderful gowns after finishing the Tudors. Must have been difficult for the cast to leave them behind.

Hampton Court was Henry's pleasure palace..he inherited over 56 different palaces just from his father alone..but his favorites were Whitehall and Hampton.

I love Hampton Court. I went there in 2016 and they had this really great exhibition on young Henry and his relationship with Catherine of Aragon and how it fell apart. Henry's personal chapel is also extremely beautiful. You aren't allowed to take pictures but let me tell you it's ceiling is amazing. It's painted blue and gold. Truly magnificent. They also have a tour of the more recent addition to the Palace made by King William III and his wife Mary II, which is also amazing. I really recommend visiting this place. Its amazing.

[Axel-lljp]

Henry didn't do much it was Elizabeth I who transformed England and brought the golden age!👑

[Geo_Babe]

Greatest show of all time. This single-handedly jump started my interest into the actual history and led me down my 14 year path of becoming a Tudor historian myself….all thanks to the incredible work of these actors and the shows creator Hirst. Thank you ❤

[fairybits]

So the series was actually filmed inside and around the Hampshire Courts.WOW!.

[vcp]

Hampton! I was there last Thanksgiving day, ironically enough. It's Amazing! I took a picture and talked to Anne Boleyn (an actress in costume). It was surreal.The kitchens, the entire palace is out of this world.

[digitPDX]

I only watch this to see Natalie Dormer's cute face.

Natalie Dormer made Anne Boleyn the most interesting wife out of all of Henry's wives.

[vanemart]

someday i will go to London and i will visit this place
