After coming to the finale of Flambards, I needed a new old historical TV series. Almost on cue, all three series of Sunday night dressmaking drama The House Of Eliott popped up to stream on ITVX, so in I have plunged. I happened to mention this in passing on Twitter/X and got one of those surprising reactions when something twangs a chord that you didn’t anticipate - a thousand plus likes, and lots of replies.
What is it that makes Elliott so irresistible and hilarious? I guess it’s partly because it’s trying so hard - but there’s something more than that. And why is it so delicious to a particular demographic? You know the ones I mean! <Hedonismbot face>

I’m going to try and work this out as I progress!
