[QUOTE="Mel O'Drama, post: 76346, member: 23"] My watch of Series Two ended last night. Like so many men before me I've had an on/off relationship with the new Rose. Frequently I keep finding myself imagining how Shirley Stelfox would say the words. Millar has struck a nice balance: mostly this Rose is very much hers - quirkier and more likeable - but every once in a while she'll deliver a line that's uncannily like I imagine Stelfox would have. The gentle continuity has been quite good. Hyacinth's old three piece suite showed up in Daisy's house in the episode that followed them collecting it and dialogue clearly establishes at what stage we are with Rose's sexual harassment of Emmet. I'm loving this aspect of the series so much. A conversation continuing whilst the phone rings and I'm willing someone to answer it; people inside the house having a conversation about who is at the door while all the time I'm conscious that someone is standing out in the cold; Hyacinth happily talking at length with Sheridan on the phone even though her new furniture could arrive at any second and she needs (ok - [I]wants[/I]) to phone her neighbour's house to draw them to the window; and then there are other phone calls where she listens and then without telling the other party she clutches the phone to her chest in order to relay the conversation to someone in her house. Today I came across this and though of you, Daniel. [MEDIA=youtube]VoO0gpYPGFs[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
