Don't Blame Anderson; Thatcher Would Always Be A Bad Imitation
18 November 2020
You hear a lot about how women should become leaders, but the same people backing that detested (and still detest the memory and history of) Margaret Thatcher because, as she was a woman, she was also a conservative. They only want liberal women, or minorities...

That said... Gillian Anderson shouldn't be blamed for making Thatcher look silly, or like an imitation of an imitation. Especially in a show that made Churchill look like a wimp. It's easy to do for a liberal show. It's how it is.

As for Anderson's performance. Every word spoken sounds like Thatcher is taking her last breath, and it's very annoying.
