Okay probably going to get kicked off a fan site or 2. But really. This was a response, I gave . I kinda want to recopy it to Channel 5 and tell them they are going to lose rating. PBS audience, which is older. Most likely as well.
It's a total vent.

Okay explain because this adaptation was never completely based on the books. Ben Vanstone did research on the real life Alf Wight and Odnald Sinclair. Along consulted with Alf Wight children..Alf Wight had to make up stories and write under a pen.name because under the law he wasn't allowed to write under his own..
Plus Donald Sinclair (Siegfried) always wanted to protect his second wife Audrey. Who the Rosie and James (Wight) confirmed that they called her Auntie Audrey.
That all being said, again explain how would it end the show? Because writers dont know how to write mid age woman or married couples?
To continue, theoretically, if Dorothy and Siegfried get together, Audrey is to continue to be the maid to Siegfried? Cleaning up his house, washing, cooking for him and Dorothy ? Who is her friend, along with being Dorothy's once commanding officer in the WRENS.
So where does Mrs. H/ Audrey have a place in this scenario? Because friends, real true friends talk about who they are dating. If Siegfried ends it, does he run back to have Audrey clean it up again or does Dorothy end it and Audrey is left with Siegfried has a leftover?
Or is Anna leaving the show and they are setting it for that?
After the season of Siegfried's laminating how he can/ can't survive without her, how does that work?
Oh,lets nreak it down even more, Dorothy and Siegfried get married, does Audrey stay living with them?
Plus a wife usually wants to keep her own house, so, Audrey have an actual work schedule. A 9 to 5 because she gets up to answer the phone, she stays up to feeld them dinner. She cant have friends over. Oh, less we forget that Siegfried, unless he caught up, hasnt paid her salary. So, again, how does that work exactly.
When Siegfried uses Audrey as Council because as she clearly said "I would have know" what he was thinking about Charlotte' s connection to the stables. Would any wife want their husbands talking yo another woman, especially a maid/ housekeepers about their feelings, thoughts, etc. Dorothy definitely doesnt seem like the type.
Does Helen and James, Tris and Charlotte accept Dorothy and like newly divorced parents have to keep separate schedules?
Hummmm. Yeah, the writers sure made this into a soap opera.the show runners write themselves into a corner and pretty deep hole. Not sure how they are going to get out, around, over it?
