When we visited Edinburgh Castle, we got the see the magic Scottish stone. Except we thought it must be not on display that day because all we saw was an uninteresting block about the size of a step on your front stoop. I have several blocks like that inconveniencing my efforts to mow my yard.
But no. It turns out that boring block was, in fact, the magic stone. That's when I realized its magic was in its power as a metaphor for the royal family.
One of my favorite shows, even the last season that everyone hated. Even more curious because I am a card carrying member of the Boston Brahmin old money crowd, and we generally hate these sorts of shows. (Downton Abbey, I'm looking at you, and don't get me started on Gilded Age). I enjoyed the slower pace and greater attention to detail of this series over the melodrama of the other period pieces. I'm afraid I'll have to disagree with you on this one, but we can still remain friends.
