Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaSir Roger's son, Louis Scatcherd, is referred to as "Sir Louis" when he visits his ailing father. Since he has not yet inherited the baronetcy from his father, he would only be "Sir Louis" under three possibilities:
1) Louis has, somehow, been knighted on his own. 2) Sir Roger Scatcherd was able to claim the ancient right of a baronet to have his son knighted at age 21. Although such claims were being ended during the reign of George IV (1820 to 1830), perhaps Sir Roger got a special privilege as part of his baronetcy. 3) It was a goof.
- GoofsThe Squire's wife is "Lady Arabella" because she is an earl's daughter, but he himself is not titled, so their daughters should just be called "Miss." (This error occurs in the cast list; in Episode 2 they are addressed correctly.)

Enjoying the series!
We are enjoying the series very much. Unlike Jane Austen characters, these have a more human tone. Their hypocrisy is as modern as what we see in Hollywood or Washington DC. While Mary Thorne may seem to unfairly judge her station in society, for her time, she is on the mark. Illegitimate children in Victorian society were outcasts regardless of their character, intelligence, or beauty. Mary Thorne would have had no chance of marrying "above her station." Being a writer, I can see that this is quite likely to happen, although it could never have happened in reality. Perhaps she is the Wallace Simpson of her time. Let's hope so. This series is lightened by clever humor from time to time, keeping it entertaining while it carries forward a message and keeps us wanting more. I hope this show continues for some time.
