This week on the Post: soaps or dramas or television series or box sets or whatever we choose to call them. First off, the series (because it isn't a soap) that kept us going during the first lockdown last spring – Anne with an E. It wouldn't have been something that us Persephone girls would watch normally. But it was recommended by someone very very intellectual (no name dropping here) and we tried and were hooked. All during March and April we lived in Anne's world. The actress playing her was superb, and so were Geraldine James (revered ever since The Jewel in the Crown, actually the best series that has EVER been on television) and Timothée Chalamet (whose character, Gilbert, was the source of the office dog's name).
