Beautiful Things

Audrey didn’t just fall off the turnip truck. She knows Siegfried is a ho. I kind of need Siegfried to make a catty comment about Gerald if Dorothy brings up the topic of Aud’s love life. Something like he would have made her life terribly dull.

imagine an episode like this with Siegfried and Audrey. I envision a horse being involved and Siegfried awkwardly trying to help her up onto the horse. They would ride into town on the horse together. Have a good laugh about it.

Thank you, Mr. Gosling, for paying homage to Val and Real Genius. Chris knight is a beloved character. So many good memories and he inspired many. Nice to see this acknowledged in Hail Mary.

She definitely needs something to do outside of Skeldale with Dorothy being in the picture now for Siegfried. She can’t just be left in the kitchen to cook for them and get their picnics ready. I think Dorothy will be quite capable of taking care of Siegfried, finding his glasses/keys/pipe. Ouch. So where does that leave Audrey? So she needs a story outside. My hope? I think a crumb was dropped with Maggie. The darts competition was for the Women’s Voluntary Services. Audrey is quite capable of bringing community together. She has experience with veterans family issues and is a veteran , and I think Maggie is invested in that too. Imagine Audrey, perhaps championed by Mrs. Pumphrey w/funding, leading efforts to help veteran families in Darrowby and maybe beyond. And that could take us through to S8. And it could hint at life beyond Darrowby/Skeldale. James/Helen are settled, Tris may be paired off with Charlotte/Maggie(?), and Siegfried and Dorothy ( I believe) will be shown to be a viable pairing. So Audrey (like the mom who has raised her family) has a second life outside the home. I do think she loves Darrowby and might choose to stay in the area. Anna said in interview that we will see another side of Siegfried with Dorothy. I think we will see a Siegfried similar to when he was married. I think he’ll be not as needy, so that really will free Audrey up in another way. So she really does have to think about what is next for herself.

I know this scene got a lot of people’s hopes up when it was previewed/aired. I just can’t get past the part about how other halves never want to be apart after they are found and it didn’t lead to Siegfried and Mrs. Hall moving closer. Hello! This whole series was about them coming together again. Make it make sense.🤷🏻‍♀️

Did Siegfried ever offer Mrs. Hall help when she left to care for her son? Doubt if Edward’s father helped at all. We know Siegfried was hurt that she left, but she did leave for a legitimate reason. Years earlier, Siegfried offered to drive her to Scarborough to find Edward. Wouldn’t he offer to take her to Edward when he came home injured. Help her to get settled maybe? I guess we’ll never know. Siegfried was hard to like in series 6, or at least they didn’t give us much insight into viewing him as being anything but selfish up to Our Hearts are Full. That episode did show him supporting Tris and helping to make Mrs. Hall’s community event a success.

We were fed this in series 6 to now only have to prepare ourselves for Dorothy and Siegfried in a relationship in series 7. Siegfried is desperate not to e alone again and they had to cram in some retro-conned love story for them so there are believable high stakes in series 7. I’m sorry, they better not rehash the Audrey and Gerald arc because too much had happened at this point.

One day, he better get to “you look stunning”. My beautiful Audrey.

Her ridiculous creature. She missed him.😍 Then she encouraged him to hook up with her horny friend🙄

She missed him. He has always amused her, but I think their journey since her return meant more to her than she knew or admitted.💔

Except for when you advise to pursue your old friend as my soulmate👀😳🫣.

Poor Mrs. Hall. She always put others ahead of herself. She thought of Mr. Farnon and Dorothy’s potential happiness, but did not consider what their pairing may mean for her. What does that glance of Siegfried’s toward Mrs. Hall mean? Anything?

Though I am not as big a fan of this scene as others, I will acknowledge that we would not have gotten this scene from them earlier. In series 1 when Mrs. Hall’s friend asks Siegfried about the “female company” he may engage at Mrs. Pumphrey’s dance, he tells her there is a line between employer and employee and it applies in that moment! But now? Now he feels comfortable with Sharing his hope for the type of love he hopes to find. I do not believe he sees,or allows himself to see, his housekeeper as a candidate. Even though she is the answer to most of his questions and he could just barely survive without her.

We got this from Siegfried in 6x1. He was not happy or fine when Mrs. Hall left. Then we hear from him in the CS that he wants the kind of love where you never want to be separated from your love again, not even a moment. He then proceeds to kiss his old flame - who happens to be Mrs. Hall’s friend - whom he hadn’t seen in 8 years because he had missed her rather a lot. Sure. Fine. Whatever👀😳🙄🤷🏻‍♀️
