Who is still watching this?

Series 10, and it should have died a natural death a while back.

Tonight’s story is awful.

And poor Leonard is being turned into an alcoholic, as if he hasn’t been through enough trauma.

Yet another series, used to be great to watch, but so far removed from the original books, and not for the better.

Just now the wisteria is in bloom

(Sorry!)

My biggest bugbear with the programme is all the awful plastic wisteria

Totally agree - vile. Always ‘in flower’ - so obviously plastic!

I haven't watched it for some time now, not having really enjoyed it since James Norton left. Geordie and his wife are good characters, and Leonard started well but turned into a caricature as time went by.
I do agree with others that ITV is much improved over recent years, ITVX and Netflix are what we watch most of the time now, we never bother with live TV.

I still love it

I still enjoy it ,a bit of harmless TV, but loved it when James Norton was in it. It’s certainly gone off.

Agree, all turned a bit weird!

I used to love it but it’s taken a bad road. Poor Leonard.

Another ridiculous episode, but just had to say, how pretty Miss Scott looked in her hastily put-together wedding outfit.

Obviously calling the banns and other incidentals didn’t really matter!

The actor who plays Leonard was on TV last week. With his curly hair and glasses he was unrecognisable and quite handsome!

Last night’s episode was no better, but in the fashion parade at the end, I really liked the outfit that Geordie and Kathy’s daughter was wearing.

A black polo neck sweater and a pinafore dress, don’t think that was how Kathy described it, but I could see myself in it, (although many years older than Esme).
