Very strange and contrived. Unsatisfying ending.

Did you like Downton Abbey? (I may try again but couldn't get past a half-episode - "contrived", yes!) Curious as teacher friends adored the TV series and several have read Fowles' books with great acclaim now.

William I loved the tv production values. Costumes. Camera. Lighting. But I found the plot and dialog to be contrived, yes.

Thanks! I think that our tendency to gawk at the imagined lives of the 1% annoys me, too. :-)
