sister_luckThe Gray Hour, episode four of Dollhouse was enjoyable fun, with quite a few layers and while some of the metaphors were a bit obvious, they still worked well.
I may not be the greatest expert on the British royal family, but the London correspondent of a big German newspaper should know that Princess Anne doesn't have daughter named Beatrice. Maybe he just isn't good with names which I could forgive, but then the editor should have spotted the mistake before the book about the correspondent's quest to meet the Queen was sent off to the printers. Of course, the book contains the usual tired old stereotypes about Britain and isn't really as funny as it wants to be. As to how he finally gets to meet her? I do wonder whether he made it all up.
