Welcome back! Thanks for revisiting my feedback from last time x Happy Holidays is a good series opener- there's lots to enjoy, without there being any one huge hook. There are no specific 'weak points' that would bring it down for me. I love Kitty as Thomas's PA - and in fact the whole 'Thomas as a Celebrity' strand. I also love Pat's appreciation of Mary's simple life. (I'm with Tash- pack everything you can think of to make life on holiday simple! So much stress when you suddenly find yourself in need of a Thing you didn't think of packing!) History/ Linguistic note: 'Riband' is an archaic name for 'ribbon'. I've always assumed you pronounce the 'd' at the end. The earliest known use of the term is in the Middle Ages.
I cannot believe Luke gave this episode a 5! Apparently going on holiday makes one a ruthless critic? I thought it was well done, with lots of plotlines, Thomas and Kitty and his Plague groupies. Pat and Mary discussing the concept of holidays. Julian and Fanny haunting the new lodgers in the guest house. Was it full of belly laughs? No. Was it well done, why yes, yes it was. Definitely an 8 for me.
Kitty points out that she liked Thomas' poem about eggs, even though she doesn't like eating eggs, a reference to the very first episode, when she was going to give a talk at food club about the first time she ate an egg. I'm also surprised at Luke's score. I think this season is the strongest overall (I may be biased, being a Robin fan and the season starts and ends the main run with Robin focused eps) , and while the first ep of each season suffers from having to set up the arc for the season (except for S3 The Bone Plot), there is still plenty to appreciate in this offering
