"i already know, i'm sorry to have kept you waiting" i wonder is this the true fulcrum of the story, is this really what the tale was all about, not the rise to power, the duty of position, envy etc and all that and is it really about how good will come from bad, how a disaster can be in a twisted way the greatest thing. i say that as the duchess finally cares, lets her guard down, no more show, no more playing her part/ is it like that in the book?
people mowping about, "huff huff, not like the book, that's wrong, this is wrong" but if u cracked the skull of a thousand readers to see their minds, all would have read it differently. My comment though is about the look of this drama. the set design, the art directio, so lavish ,so wonderfull. looks expensive and for a tv series, looks like a big budget hollywood job, u cqn tell hollywood didn't make this, as its not fucked up to sunday.
i like Fushcia's death in the book better see she thinks about suicide but decides not to. Then just as she's climbing back in, she was startled by the door opening and fell out. That was to show her child like personality was with her up until her death
"You got lucky." Haha, I love that. Reminds me of another villain who was sentenced to death. His last words were,"If I've done anything good in my life, I repent it."
I hate Titus, he is a weak response for a Prince to rule, Steerpike would have been a better prince or king, at least he knew what he wanted, Titus knows shit...
he was born in the castle, the son of a servant, and the decendant of many who had worked and lived in the castle since it was built, hundreds of years before. he probably had royal blood in him to some degree. the royals will have bread with their female and male servants. he may have even been an illigitimate brother of Titus. or a perhaps steerpike's father was an illigitamate son of the previous earl, making them cousins.
Learn to swim if you live near water. The author of the trilogy died before the third book was ready for publication... I wonder, if that is why the last book lost its continuity and definition.
They should have made a longer scene about Fuchsia's death. It's the saddest chapter in any book ever. Seriously. I cried so hard when I first read it.
Hi necaeosomnes i agree with you there. Fuchsia was my favourite charactor-a gentle wild child. " Her need for love had never been fulfilled ; her love for others had never been suspected,or wanted. Rich as a dusky orchard, she had never been discovered. Her green boughs had been spread, but no travellers came and rested in their shade nor tasted the sweet fruit " Poor Fuchsia!
@phytoalexa No...she was FAR from it--in fact, she was probably the only sympathetic character in the books. Steerpike was an evil, evil--UGLY looking ass. :D No pretty boy Johnathan Rhys-Meyers...
@veggiebiker Whole book was retorted and had no point, Mr Peake killed everyone one by one, BAM Earl is gone, Sourdust, Keda, Barquentine, Twins, Flay, (Swelter deserved it) Thing, Fuchsia, fucking Steerpike retarded TITUs left alone to jerkoff with his mother. But he left the castle to get even more retarded.

A bittersweet ending to a truly great movie. But the cooks call now to an even greater tale!

they all interbred, this is post apocolypse.

In the book Fuchsia does think about suicide but she changes her mind. Unfortunately though she's startled and falls. :(

I've not yet read the books. Am I to understand that Fuschia is NOT the same self-centred halfwit as in the miniseries?

I agree. I think they made her death kind of abrupt and anti climactic.
