My wife and I watch the Tudors on CBC ahh religiously. Cough. What I find amusing is that the fountains keep running in the exterior shots. One can only imagine the 14th century galley slaves beavering away at undergound pumps to make the fountains work. Yes, I know you can make a fountain work if you pipe water downhill. My recollection of English geography says there are no water sources uphill from those particular castles/estates.
