usedtobeljsTen quick things:
1) I've now watched The Essex Serpent all the way through, and really liked it.
2) Tom Hiddleston as Will Ransome was everything, as per usual.
3) I v. much appreciated the change in the ending from the book, too.
4) But mostly? I am currently in a Victoriana mood like whoa, and I need some William Morris decorative items in my home. NEED.
5) I tried Signora Volpe on Acorn -- Emilia Fox, excellent and excellently turned out, as British spy who will be turning detective. Because I am not so enthralled by the Italian scenery and supporting characters, I didn't get sucked in, but others might enjoy it more than I did.
6) Jamie Bamber has a supporting role as her ex-husband, by the by.
7) Otherwise, not much is going on here, other than errands and heat. I am NOT a person who loves heat, have to say it.
8) But I am v. much looking forward to an afternoon in an air-conditioned cinema on July 1 to watch Mr. Malcolm's List.
9) Thing is, I am all for lighthearted, diverse period stories. But the upcoming Netflix Persuasion? NO THANK YOU.
10) YES THANK YOU, tonight in the US, the new series of Endeavour. LOVE.
Happy week to everyone!

Happy week to you too!
