Apparently they released an album in 2009 -- their first in 28 years -- and I failed to notice. Did anyone else?

2009 release from Eddie Tudorpole and his new cast of Tudors, the first Tenpole Tudor album in 28 years! Tenpole Tudor enjoyed a number of UK hit singles between 1979 and 1981 with their signature tracks being 'Wunderbar' and 'Swords Of A Thousand'. Made It This Far is an eclectic mix of styles from Rockabilly to Rock 'N' Roll. 16 tracks. Angel Air.

Looking for more info on it now.

EDIT:
It was recorded in various studios, with different musicians (including some original members, but all with Eddie), over a 10-year period. Some customer reviews at Amazon.co.uk. And then, there's this blogger's review:

Still interested. Might pick it up. Probably will at some point (when I remember and find it).

I knew it was out there and had assumed you did too or I would have mentioned it. I haven't heard it though. I like them but I'd imagine its hard to find here in the states and I don't like them enough to pay import prices for it or spend a lot of time searching blogs for it.

It's on iTunes, but I think that I want the physical product for this one: Looks like there are some pretty extensive sleeve notes written by Eddie, which, I am sure are going to be highly entertaining.

A bump, because I was just reminded again today that this thing exists.
Anyone actually heard it yet?
