I missed something, need explanations!


I must have missed something. Finished s3 last night and started s4 this afternoon and a few episodes in I realized I have no clue what happened to the eye patch guy.

Sir Francis Bryan, a close friend of the king who lost his eye during a joust when he was 36.

Played by Alan Van Sprang, his last episode was the season 3 finale. There was no send-off for his character. Just... never to be seen again.

Thanks for clearing that up for me! I definitely missed him in s4.

I thought Alan Van Sprang played him well. And he can be seen on seasons 1 & 2 of "Reign" as King Henry II of France, a show about the life of Mary Queen of Scots.

reply

Yes! He was very good! I look forward to seeing him in Reign, thanks for the heads up!

In teal life Francis Bruan became Chief Justice of Ireland and died in 1550, in the reign of Edward VI.
