Andrew is due to appear in episode 10, meaning we should see his episode at the end of August or start of September. We will post the air date as soon as it’s confirmed.
“Making History“, the episode of Being Human that focused on Cutler and Hal’s backstory, has been nominated in the Best TV Episode category in the SFX Awards 2013.
Amazon currently have the DVD of The White Queen available to pre-order, with a release date of 29 July.
Even if the final episode airs the night before the DVD release, this puts episode one as airing by 26 May at the latest – although it’s unlikely to be the 26 as the BBC have confirmed episode one of Case Histories as airing 8.30pm – 10.00pm on BBC One on Sunday 19 May (so our previous air date prediction was incorrect).
Emma Frost, screenwriter of The White Queen, has today tweeted that the first teaser trailer will air on BBC One this Saturday after The Voice and also this Sunday after The Village.
The Telegraph have today reported that, while there is no confirmed air date, The White Queen is due to air this month on the BBC.
The Programme Highlights have been released up to and including week 20 (11 – 17 May) on the BBC Media Centre website; given that this programme will be fairly high profile we believe that the BBC would have included The White Queen in their highlights, so it is likely that it will air after that. Our guess is that it will take the time slot about to be released by The Village (concluding Sunday 5 May at 9pm), with the BAFTAs taking that slot in week 20.
So, our prediction, to be taken with a massive pinch of salt – Sunday 19 May at 9pm. Let’s see if we’re right!
Historical drama The Borgias is focused on the House of Borgia and their rise to power at the turn of the 16th century, centering on Rodrigo Borgia (Jeremy Irons), the later Pope Alexander VI, and his family: his illegitimate sons Giovanni (David Oakes), Cesare (François Arnaud) and daughter Lucrezia (Holliday Grainger).
The third season picks up where the second season stopped: the Pope is fighting for his life after being poisened with cantarella while his Cardinals continue plotting at his deathbed. However, not only the Pope’s life is in danger, his enemies are also after his family.
One of the assassins (Andrew Gower) blackmails Lucrezia’s nurse Concetta (Mackenzie Munro) to gain access to the Borgia household and kill all family members. Lucrezia, Cesare and his servant Micheletto (Sean Harris) need to work fast if they want to save everyone…
