Outrageous (The Mitford family)

Must watch it! I met the late Max Mosely many years ago at a racing event via a friend. He was charming and urbane, funny, lovely to talk to, very interesting. He seemed like he was very close to Oswald & he was a big influence on his life but he definitely didn't share his politics, he was more Liberal. He intimated Diana was a cold, distant figure in his life & it was certainly his father he bonded with.

Watched a couple of episodes last night, it didn't seem so long ago the other series, The Pursuit of Love was on. I shall continue to watch the rest, I enjoyed it. I found the Nazi rallies that Diana and Unity went to scary, I do wonder whether at that time, they knew anything about Hitler and Third Reich's Plans to annihilate the Jews and other people they deemed undesirable. I thought Unity was pretty unhinged from what I read about her.

Very good series, hoping for the next!

I think someone has already mentioned that ‘Wait for Me,’ Deborah Devonshire, the youngest Mitford sister’s autobiography is well worth a read.

I very much enjoyed it, in spite of constantly wanting to slap Unity and to a lesser extent Diana, especially when referring to how well Hitler was dealing with the Jewish problem or issue, can't remember exactly how they expressed that reprehensible view. They, the Jewish people, weren't the problem, Hitler was. I do wonder what was going on in her brain fawning all over that monster, stupid woman

The work Hitler did in reuniting and getting the German economy going again was pretty widely admired at the time. Unity and Diana took this to extremes.
