A Woman of Substance

[jivafox]

Obsessed with Brenda Blethyn's line delivery at the beginning of this trailer



This is giving Rivals x Wuthering Heights (Emerald Fennell's Version). Based on the novel by Babs B-T OBE, and the original 80s version gave Channel 4 its highest ever audience ratings.

how much of the plot do they want to reveal in that trailer?? looks potentially enjoyable but I had to stop it halfway through in case I do want to watch this

 

[straightorbroken]

Oh my god. Finally

 

[FetchFugly]

A spot of Donna's Queen For A Day to kick things off

 

[straightorbroken]

The 1985 version is up on Channel 4. Three 2 hour episodes. Oh my.

I'll watch the new one first though. Just starting.

 

[FetchFugly]

That was quite good fun. I wanted more Brenda though, and Emmett J Scanlan's English aristo accent was not completely convincing.

 

[straightorbroken]

A party - for little old me?

Had a false start the other day, but I'm watching now.

 

[straightorbroken]

Oh my. Very dramatic preview for episode 2. I must make myself a coffee for this one.

 

[straightorbroken]

Will Mellor officially a DILF now I guess.

 

[straightorbroken]

Adele is magnificent.

Oh no, I think she's going to do something very cruel.

 

[straightorbroken]

I assumed she was going to ring a little bell and start screaming her dress had been stolen.

 

[straightorbroken]

Episode 3's preview: "I don't want you to respect me". Going full on Wuthering Heights I see.

 

[straightorbroken]

Just got to keep watching with these previews - they give you no choice.

That horrid Olivia sending up a beaker of breakfast booze though.

 

[straightorbroken]

Now this is Adele's comeback. Let her have it please.

 

[straightorbroken]

Watching episode 7. Enough with the screaming already.

 

[straightorbroken]

Could've sworn she said "all your fairies".

 

[straightorbroken]

I guess we could see that coming. Still, camp enough to make it worth it, but why on earth wouldn't she just have put it in a changeable will regardless of health conditions, etc.
