Natalie has conducted another tour of the Tower of London for The Tudors! Looks like her tours are apart of a little series … I wonder if we will get more! The video has been added to our video archive, as has the British Library Tour.

For the 500th anniversary of Henry VIII’s accession to the throne the British Library created a number of exhibitions celebrating the monarch and Natalie has done a tour around them for Showtime!

A few extra stills have been posted in the gallery, thanks to Stephanie for the links! London Theatre and The Stage have also posted reviews for Sweet Nothings, again everything seems to be positive, which is great!

At one point the fairly minimalist set is transformed by the characters into a scene of decadence, chaos and wasted oblivion, with broken glass, scattered cake and discarded bed linen littering the room.

Sweet Nothings opened in London this week and we are finally seeing some reviews and pictures leak through! Everything I’ve read so far has praised Natalie’s performance (though I’ve lost the links to most of the ones I’ve looked at). The Guardian has posted quite a positive review though, and a new picture!

And you learn everything you need to know about Natalie Dormer’s selfishly sensual Mitzi when she casually plants her hat on Christine’s carefully laid-out chessboard. But the performances throughout are as impeccable as the production. Read More …
