Evelyn trying to sell her out of date stock to Rita.

I was expecting our Rita to warble out an old ditty with it being VE Day, I am glad she didn't.

David is better off without Shona, stay well clear.

If Shona actally fancied Platt I feel sure she would show some interest

Rita reeally annoyed me when she said that everyone thought it was all over on VE day. The many thousands who had husbands and sons stil fighting or being held prisoner in the far east did NOT think it was all over

Did Rita say she was 13 on VE day, is she really 88?

Yes, born 25th Feb 1932 .. the actress is actually a year younger and will be 87 this September according to Wiki

That's true, I thought it was a bit thoughtless. It wasn't as if the Luftwaffe was still carrying out a bombing campaign of any significance on Britain. The closest thing that had happened to that was the V1 and V2's and by the time the Allies crossed the Rhine the vast majority of those sites were neutralised.

It seems that often the war in the East was forgotten. The only reason I could think of was when Rita said "the end of a great evil", she meant Hitler and his deputies specifically.

Peter was very dashing in his navy suit

Why can Daniel join a grieving widows support group, continuation from his grieve retreat in Scotland, get friendly with Roy, talk to him as both lost wives to cancer

how can daniel afford the hooker

The faces on those two were priceless. As Carla said, blackmail doesn't work if everyone knows the details, but more importantly with blackmail, you give in to it once and there's nothing to stop that pair from coming back. He can say he'd give his word, but you'd excuse me if I think his word is worth anything.

EDIT.

Not to mention, i was glad to see the usually cynical and sarcastic Evelyn being one of the most vocal supporting Carla. It really defused their plans.

It made me love Evelyn all the more.

Seb was displaying ridiculous lockdown hair last night - even before he had to spend a single day in lockdown!

You would think that she wouldn't charge him with all the free advertisement she is getting
