Jane Seymour Vs. Annette Crosbie

Propaganda

Jane Seymour - (Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman) - I'd like to specifically draw attention to Jane Seymour in the Quinn years. In her forties, she was ethereally beautiful, and while the costuming and styling was less than historically accurate, at least it showed off her wonderful auburn hair. This was also the show where I first noticed her eyes' brown and green heterochromia, which, along with her delicate profile, gives her that extra touch of magic. With this show, she not only offered fun melodrama, she centered the Western genre on a woman and used its plots to argue for gun control, anti-racism, anti-censorship, anti-homophobia, and the social acceptance of those living with AIDS.

Annette Crosbie - (The Six Wives of Henry VIII, Edward the Seventh, Doctor Finlay) - Despite being best known as Victor Meldrew's long suffering wife, Margaret, in the British sitcom "One Foot in the Grave" Annette Crosbie's career on TV is much more than that. She played Catherine of Aragon in the series "Six Wives of Henry VIII" and her performance is still regarded as one of the best portrayal of Catherine of Aragon ever (on both screen and TV). She won the BAFTA for Best Actress for her performance. In "Edward the Seventh" she played Queen Victoria, starting from youth and right in to old age, winning another BAFTA for Best Actress. She played the housekeeper Janet in Doctor Finlay, the 1996 revival of the famous 60s series Dr. Finlay's casebook, a beloved character played before by Barbara Mullen, Crosbie managed to make it her own and not be overshadowed by Mullen's portrayal. But of course her best known performance was in One Foot in the Grave, where her impeccable comedic timing was in full force.

The Six Wives of Henry VIII from least to most favorite (as voted by you guys)

2ND PLACE - Catherine of Aragon

“Sir, I beseech you for all the love that hath been between us, and for the love of God, let me have justice. Take of me some pity and compassion, for I am a poor woman, and a stranger born out of your dominion. I have here no assured friends, and much less impartial counsel…

Alas! Sir, wherein have I offended you, or what occasion of displeasure have I deserved?… I have been to you a true, humble and obedient wife, ever comfortable to your will and pleasure, that never said or did any thing to the contrary thereof, being always well pleased and contented with all things wherein you had any delight or dalliance, whether it were in little or much. I never grudged in word or countenance, or showed a visage or spark of discontent. I loved all those whom ye loved, only for your sake, whether I had cause or no, and whether they were my friends or enemies. This twenty years or more I have been your true wife and by me ye have had divers children, although it hath pleased God to call them out of this world, which hath been no default in me…

When ye had me at first, I take God to my judge, I was a true maid, without touch of man. And whether it be true or no, I put it to your conscience. If there be any just cause by the law that ye can allege against me either of dishonesty or any other impediment to banish and put me from you, I am well content to depart to my great shame and dishonour. And if there be none, then here, I most lowly beseech you, let me remain in my former estate… Therefore, I most humbly require you, in the way of charity and for the love of God – who is the just judge – to spare me the extremity of this new court, until I may be advised what way and order my friends in Spain will advise me to take. And if ye will not extend to me so much impartial favour, your pleasure then be fulfilled, and to God I commit my cause!” - Catherine of Aragon, June 21st 1529 at Blackfriars
