Product Description
The Borgias return for more seduction, schemes, and outright villainy in all 10 riveting episodes from the second season.
Academy Award® winner Jeremy Irons is back as Rodrigo Borgia, the power-hungry patriarch of the Borgia clan, who has schemed his way to the top of Roman society as Pope Alexander VI. But with absolute power comes even more powerful enemies who will stop at nothing to see him toppled.
While the Pope schemes to destroy his foes, his mistress Giulia Farnese (Lotte Verbeek) realises her position in the bedroom is precarious at best; daughter Lucrezia (Holliday Grainger) seduces new suitors while caring for her illicit baby; and brothers Cesare (François Arnaud) and Juan (David Oakes) take sibling rivalry to a whole new level of deviancy.
Be there for every stunning moment of the critically acclaimed crime drama with a royal pedigree.

Series 1 was good, but the bar is raised in this second series.
Jeremy Irons is brilliant - some amazing acting in some ery heavy scenes -especially as the series reaches its climax.

Loved Series 1, and found this even more gripping. Wonderful acting, Can't wait for the next series. Watching this has made me want to research the Italian Renaissance more.

... a very good show, quite entertaining, even if it takes a frank turn into pure fiction and discards too much historical details (as I am Italian, I notice all flips and they are piling up alarmingly, some are really excessive). Quite a good acting by most of the characters, and beautiful costumes, that support the poverty of scenography (very scant as a representation of Italian Rinascimento). I look forward to season 3.

I love this series. The plot is great, and the acting brilliant. I love period drama and you won't be disappointed it you enjoy the same.

If you liked Season 1, you have to get Season 2!
Cesare Borgia's character development was the most fascinating aspect for me. Micheletto is disturbing and yet an interesting side kick to Cesare...

Makes the present Mafia look like pussycats...
Jeremy Irons makes a wonderful Pope and his lean looks have you trembling as he almost whispers his plans plots and perversions to all around him. Read more

Borgias love them or hate them!
Excellent. Loved the first season and the second is just as riveting. Fast pace with plenty of action and bloodletting, but not just for the sake of it! More of them please!

It is quite good. Jeremy Irons is very good as usual. It is not totally correct in terms of history, but very entertaining.
