From the real life stories that inspired Game of Thrones, delve into a world of dynasties, blood feuds and civil war, where brother battles brother, uncle kills nephew, and cousin executes cousin in the race to decide who wears the bloodstained crown of England. The Tudor dynasty spans little over a century, but it is filled with big personalities and even bigger battles for power and influence. Trace the Tudor bloodline from Henry VII to Elizabeth I in a family drama like no other. Producer: Brian Aabech

在本片中,《豪斯医生》主演休•劳瑞将脱下白大褂,换上村夫装。带领您一同前往美国新奥尔良,领略这座城市的魅力,聆听最原汁原味的蓝调音乐。他边弹边唱(你没听错,房子叔私下是位灰常有前途的蓝调歌手),将蓝调历史上的趣事信手捏来,抒发对这座城市和蓝调音乐由来已久的仰慕之情。可以说《休•劳瑞的蓝调之旅》不但是一部很好的蓝调知识启蒙素材,也是一场蓝调音乐盛宴。 片中休•劳瑞的新奥尔良试听会现场为2012年首次公开,之前只有少部分音乐评论人/记者有幸一睹。试听会曲目收于专辑《Let Them Talk(风言风语)》中,此专辑于2011年发行,旋即占据蓝调排行榜第一名,在流行榜上也有不俗表现,可以算是一张成功的专辑。专业评论界总的说赞扬声居多,但也有人质疑其唱功(vocalability)和感染力(delivery)。但不管怎么说,休•劳瑞是一位真正的音乐家、爱乐者,而绝不是哗众取宠之流。
