Re: Gold Digger... New Series Coming Soon On BBC1

Oh this was good. I just finished watching the final episode on the iPlayer last night. A very well-written drama.

But then IMO Benjamin is a bit too scraggy for my liking. What is it about men in their thirties these days letting themselves go? Perhaps it's the facial hair that makes them look untidy.
Which optician do you use because my spectacles do not allow me to get so closeup to Julia that I can confirm her skin looks damaged .
It was announced actually that the actress had to be made up to look the age of the character she's playing.
Maybe your slim friends wouldn't appeal to Benjamin ? Some men like a well rounded woman .
As for Ben Barnes being scraggy !!
He's fit as a butcher's dog and as for looking untidy please point me to any scene where you saw that .
His kind of beard is seen out and about just about everywhere .

I enjoyed it and am looking forward to the next episode.

Personally, I don't see what difference it makes whether Julia had wrinkles or not. She is supposed to be a mature lady after all, and whether she smoked or not is immaterial.
If she had been portrayed as slim, trendy, perfect figure, and flawless skin, then no doubt some would say - "Ridiculous! How many 60 yr olds look like that." She can't win.

As for young Benjamin, well as Art said, he wouldn't appeal to me as he is younger than my son! But he is quite a nice looking chap I thought and I'm sure would appeal to many girls.

Re: Gold Digger... New Series Coming Soon On BBC1

Is there a moral to this drama?

Is it a crime fo a 60 year old wealthy women to find love with a much younger man?
Her selfish family definitely think so and care not for her happiness, thinking that the man is solely after the 'Main Chance'. Her money and home'

As for her ex-husband being livid,he can talk after his affair with a much younger woman causing a Divorce.
However I thought being in love was a very happy occasion, but Julie looks stressed nearly all the time with all the family bickering going on, also she does not seem to sure of her
amour
Lines and all she is still an attractive woman at 60 years
and he is definitely, 'Tall Dark and Handsome'.

Will there be light at the end of the tunnel?

Wait and see!
