Richard Dillane: Sir Thomas Stanley

Quotes 

• Elizabeth of York : What is it?

  Henry VII : The Duchess writes on behalf of so-called "Prince Richard." Inviting the Queen and I to be her guests at court.

  Margaret Beaufort : She is shameless.

  Jasper Tudor : You must refuse.

  Henry VII : Must I? And here I was thinking what a pleasant trip it might be.

  Margaret Beaufort : Prince Richard? The whole world knows he died in the Tower years ago. The Duchess is either mad or a fool...

  Henry VII : She's neither. Of course she knows the boy is an imposter. Like the last. What does it matter if she is able to convince people otherwise?

  Elizabeth of York : [Lizzie holds his arm]  The people of England support you. Do not doubt that.

  Sir Thomas Stanley : There are rumors, Your Grace, of... Nobles in the southern counties planning to flee to Burgundy.

  Margaret Beaufort : We shall close the ports...

  Sir William Stanley : And stop all trade. All legitimate travel because of a rumor? England would be up in arms.

  Henry VII : I agree. It is too drastic. The world would think I acted out of fear.

  Jasper Tudor : How will you respond?
