The series will follow a group of fun loving young American girls who
explode into the tightly corseted London season of the 1870s, kicking
off an Anglo-American culture clash as the land of the stiff upper lip
is infiltrated by a disregard for centuries of tradition. Sent to secure
husbands and titles, the buccaneers’ hearts are set on much more than
that, and saying ‘I do’ is just the beginning.
Christina Hendricks’ Mrs. St. George is the mother of buccaneers Nan and Jinny. As a girl she was the belle of the ball herself, before she even dreamt of having money. Then when her husband struck gold on Wall Street, she found herself wealthy beyond her wildest dreams but in real danger of being the kind of social-climbing outsider that used to bemuse her. Above all else, she wants her daughters to be happy, but soon they’ll discover that marriage might not be the key to that happiness… for any of them.
Ohh I thought she was going to be Laura Testvalley, a perfect role for her. Mrs. St. George is a boring character.
ReplyDeleteI cannot imagine she is old enough to be a mother of such grown up daughters! But then again some of my school friends have kids at college right now... so I better shut up and cry in the shadows over how old we are.
DeleteInteresting. Marriage isn't the be all end all so that's interesting to see what they will do instead.
ReplyDeleteProbably rob some poor unsuspecting fine British gents of their monies, sadly.
DeleteShe looks HOT :-)
ReplyDeleteIndeed.
DeleteI’d also get a corset and go snag me a fine, wealthy man from London.
ReplyDeleteThose London ones are the best, I'd snag a few myself.
DeleteI'll join you and Theresa, although I may make a quick detour to Australia.. or is that not allowed in this fantasy? hahaha
ReplyDeleteThat will hardly be a "quick" detour.
DeleteLOL, can we detour to Ireland and grab some of those hunks while we're at it? Collect us some little tokens all across the globe!
DeleteThe more the better.
DeleteLMAO! I'm all in on this "road" trip.
