Unlike Lady Mary who manages to have heat with everyone! She is a lot of fun to watch....
Very true. She's one of the few characters that does. Not sure how much of this is the actress and how much is the writing.
But it is true, all their story telling choices are wicked obvious... but I do enjoy the show.
Evidence of how good writing, acting, production, and direction can save a bad story. For how a decent story can be destroyed by bad writing, acting, production and direction - you need go no further than Ringer - which actually had an interesting premise and plot, but is so badly written and performed it's hard to tell.
