This week's plot is exactly what you'd expect
from an After Henry storyline, with Eleanor threatening to leave Sarah
and go to live at The Sycamores home. Clare spends much of her time in this
episode with a female friend, not something that I can remember seeing in any
other one. Come to think of it, Sarah doesn't seem to have any woman friends,
either, although Russell would fit most narrative purposes when they might
otherwise feature.
I am intrigued to see in the set dressing for Clare's flat that she still hasn't got rid of her 1982 Patches annual, which feels authentic. In a rare incidence of comparative time-and-place London 1989 specificity Eleanor wants to get to Sainsbury’s early on a Saturday morning, "before the yuppies wake up" and leave her queuing behind their trollies filled with "Perrier water, mange tout and garlic".
