Season 3 of The Tudors premieres Sunday, April 5th on Showtime so we wanted to give everyone a chance to get caught up on Seasons 1 & 2.
We're hosting a "Which Tudor are You?" drawing here on Gather and two lucky Tudors fans will each win copies of seasons 1 & 2 on DVD.
To enter just go to Showtime's "Who the Tudor are You?" and complete the quick game to find out which Tudor you are. Then post a comment on this article sharing your answer with the community.
Your comments must be posted by 11:59pm ET Thursday, March 25. And two winners will be announced on Friday, March 26.
When I took the "Who the Tudor are You?" quiz, I was picked as a Nun:
Well done, Sister. Unlike the vast majority of the population, you're morally pure relatively well educated and more importantly, you're not horrendously filthy. Unfortunately, the price you pay this cleanliness is a life of celibacy and constant prayer. You're the closest thing to a nurse in your community, but if a rewarding life tending to the sick isn't for you, don't worry; King Henry is about to tear down all the nunneries and kick you out onto the streets. A life of chastity increases your lifespan though, at 27, you can expect to live for another 29 years.
Yikes -- I think I might have to play the game again.
Have fun and let us know who the Tudor you are!

U wishing you laughter
"Unlike the vast majority of the population, you're morally pure, relatively well educated and, more importantly, you're not horrendously filthy. Unfortunately, the price you pay for this cleanliness is a life of celibacy and constant prayer...."
Looks like I'm going to get syphilis and die within 4 years. LOL
It says that "Strangely, for woman of God, I have quite a bit of money and it's my decision to spend it on the poor in the community or go out and buy another 'gold backscratcher'" lol. However, I will have a downfall and be kicked out on the streets if I do not resist the kings attempts to take from me everything that I own"
This was fun & interesting! I have never heard of this show but it sounds great! I really want to see it now!
I missed some of the show from the second season, but caught the last show for season 2 and I cried when Anne gave her last words, then her head was cut off
(so I can see it)
sadly, what they don't realize is that everyone in their own way is a prostitute, and it worked well for Ann. well up until they beheaded her.
It said I was a merchant's wife, albeit probably a dead one, at my age. Great.
Wow, pretty brutal quiz. Apparently if you're a relatively young SAHM (homemaker, no income, pursuing happiness) you're considered a prostitute. :P
Oh dear, Angela, this is as bad as it gets. You wouldn't have thought that you could sink any lower, but count yourself lucky that you're not a thief or an actor-the only two professions lower down the scale than yours.
You'll sell your wares for a paltry sum of sixpence a time and be riddled with a variety of diseases in exchange..
Well, you get the point. How rude this quiz is!
I guess that's what I get for being a wife and a stay at home mom - some people can't get over the stereotypes! LOL!
But, I've read the other comments and I'm happy to see I'm not the only prostitute on Gather! LOL!
If it were a to-the-point quiz, it would have just said I was a rotting corpse.
BTW- Lady in Waiting is code for High Priced Whore.
I had always fancied myself as one of ladies-in-waiting in Elizabeth's court. I don't think I knew her murderous father, Henry VIII. Ever since I was a kid, I really believed I lived back then and can't get seem to catch up on all the historical novels written about the era. Plus the non-fictional books, too.
I don't have Showtime so I would love the DVD series.
Pick me...please! Have pity on a poor nun as I have taken my vows very seriously as I don't worship money just my queen and my pope.
Guess we're all poor.
I love this show, the Tudors are my favorite dynasty to study.
If I were a prostitute, I might have more money than I do now! LOL!
On the surface, Jennifer,this may sound not bad. But your position in the chain, one level above thieves, one level below beggars, reflects how lowly actors were perceived by Tudors. You're woefully poor, nobody respects you, and you struggle to survive from job to job. Much like the majority of actors today. As an aside, we're fairly certain there were no female actors, and if there were, it was probably an euphemism for prostitution. So not only are you not treading the floorboards in any meaningful way, you're likely to be riddled with syphilis to boot. Be thankful that you only have about two years before you die of some sexually transmitted disease.
Well, isn't that nice? ROFLOL!
I don't have Showtime, but I'm a big Jonathan Rhys Meyers fan and I'd love to see this series! :)
That would make me a nun, too, then, and hun, I am no nun !!!
I wouldn't have guessed that
Kimber L.
and
James Fradisle
Congrats to you both! I'll be contacting you for your addresses and getting the DVDs out to you ASAP.
Thanks again to everyone for participating. We loved reading all of your comments so much that next week we'll be posting another fun opportunity to win Season 1 & 2 on DVD.
And remember, next Sunday, April 5th Season 3 of The Tudors premieres on Showtime!
