Frances O'Conner's voice as Rose actually reminds me quite a bit like Elizabeth McGovern's Cora Crawley (Downton Abbey). Loving more screen time with Henri LeClair -- his character just really lights up the whole series for me. I have to wonder what prevents him from wanting to return to his old position as Creative Director and why he isn't sharing his plans with anyone. He made it sound like Agnes would not approve. Miss Mardle looks less dowdy this episode. Hope the extra income and financial independence means she'll get an interesting storyline and perhaps a new relationship. I want Harry and Rose to have an intimate and loving relationship with some sparks this season.

Agreed that JP's scaled back version of Selfridge is a big improvement. I, too, thought Delphine's was going to turn out to be a high class house of ill repute. The writers must have wanted to keep us guessing -- though I couldn't fathom Rose wanting to be friends with a Madam. Loved Kitty's tango dance sequence converging with the Selfridge-Union fight -- electric. Glad Henri is back this season. Not sure I want to see him rekindle romance with A though. I kinda see him more with Delphine. Hate Lord Loxley! He is a deliciously evil character. The way he smeared that egg yolk on Lady Mae's mouth made me burn with all kinds of wrathful thoughts. I'd rather be smacked. Bastid!

All the sleaze bag people on the show are attached to Aviva -- Harry, Amanda, & George. You are the company you keep.

Hello Everyone, I popped over from TWOP also. Good to see some familiar names here. By the looks of things over at TWOP, a lot of us have registered on this site, so that's good news. Glad you're getting a new start here, Splain -- like the the name.

Agreed. I have to wonder if Allison DuBois planted the story about Mauricio cheating with the tabloids and then got Carlton to pitch it discreetly to the producers?
