Q What was your opinion of Katherine before you took the role? MDK To me she was always the most fascinating one, they were married for longer than Henry was married to all the others.

BUt in THe Tudors she is portrayed as a strong willed women not willing to lose her husband to a younger women, was it your intention or was it written in the script that way? MDK That's a fairly universal story, no? It was certainly my intention and Michael Hirst agreed with me. Q Did you enjoy wearing The Tudor style dress and jewlerry? MDK Yes! Who wouldn't. Q Did you have to learn Spannish for the role of Queen Katherine or is it your secondary languauge?
