In the news: The Tudors

    “One more bit of information from the CBC fall season launch: Penelope Corrin joins Royal Canadian Air Farce in the fall as a full-time member. She briefly replaced Jessica Holmes last season when Holmes went on maternity leave. That brings the cast to seven. It’s a record, isn’t it?”
