I had forgotten the original plot so l didn't realise or mind too much about the Phelps reinvention. Loved the Art Deco curtains as did a previous poster and of course the costumes and decor generally . I can't, however , let go of my annoyance at the idea that the maintenance of that mansion and grounds, let alone the maiding and servanting of half a dozen people , the laundry and the entire cooking and serving of all meals, including vast Christmas fare was apparently totally undertaken by the hapless Kirsten..... Shallow and pettifogging of me no doubt, but l got obsessed with the lack of a butler, footmen, maids, gardeners, cooks and what have you without which such a house would not have functioned.
