The country visit held so many possibilities, and yet the screenwriters failed to take advantage of the two most dramatic moments from the book??
The garden scene with the bee was so tame and lackluster when compared to what the author wrote..... And the thunderstorm scene ugh. It was such a dramatic scene that brought the characters more understanding of each other and emotion. They totally dropped the ball.
And Edwina never had an emotional investment in Anthony in the books, and yet they have her pursuing him like crazy and getting engaged. It doesn't make for better viewing, it just frustrates those of us who loved the books. I expect changes of course when a book is adapted to a show, not it's sad to see them fail to take advantage of such potential.
