No, Aretha Boleyn, not Ann, was a coloured lady.

I know, as I was often in court when she sang gospel music.

Henry hated it and they had to chop her head off to get some peace.

When I tell people this, a lot of them just don't believe it.

Correct because it was illegal for women to take the stage so Juliet was played by a boy. Shakespeare poked fun at this lots of his comedies include cross dressing.

One more point

The two were probably remarkably similar, late night Glasgow is just like late night Croydon but with a river.

She may well be a very good Boleyn, but the wrong skin tone, When James Corden played a gay man there was a outcry from the gay community, so us and them thing,

if the complete cast was black maybe that would make it interesting , because there is alot of good actors and actress that are black, but to make one person no not for me

I can't say I notice it as its not as big as the Clyde!

C5 are a private company and can show what they want, within the remit of the broadcasting rules.

And we can make a choice not to watch it, based on whatever criteria we want.

Nice and simple.

I choose not to watch it because I think its f***ing ludicrous casting. C'est la vie.
