What about The White Queen on BBC tonight? Anyone watch it? I can't get enough of period dramas!
I've made it finally through the first episode of Mr. Selfridge and Piven in insufferable as the character for the most though he works in some scenes I guess. You'd think the director would have reigned him in a bit at times. I've got the whole rest of the episodes to try to work through and I don't know if I can take him that much. The plot just seems to clunk along with nothing much happening and I don't really like any of the characters. It's sure no Downtown Abbey. But I'll probably watch the rest just because it's pretty and to see all those period costumes and sets - loved that part of it.
