@@janettamcgee8124 Yes, Mary’s second wedding dress is something I’d want to wear, but the first one did nothing for her. There was absolutely nothing interesting about it.

[@peachygal4153]

@@spiritmatter1553 I thought the second dress was too plain for a wedding dress, it was more fitting as mother of the bride, but in that time period a widow remarrying was expected to look matronly even if she was a young widow like Mary. Mary had a lot of beautiful clothes, but she was shafted in my mind at both weddings. I wish they had put her in Rose's registry suit. That would have been somber enough being light gray, but the e floral embroidery on the collar gave it a touch of youthfulness.

[@peachygal4153]

@@janettamcgee8124 Yes it looked like a sack but the height of fashion back then. Women were more slaves of fashion back then than looking for something that enhanced their appearance. Look at Queen Elizabeth's parents in their 1923 wedding photos. The Queen mother wore a gown that did nothing for her but like Mary's, was the height of fashion at the time.

[@DaisyLee1963]

What a cad that Strallan was. He should have manned up and had the decency to break it off with Edith BEFORE the wedding, rather than humiliating her in public. Even though good things happened for Edith later, I never forgave him for his behavior.

[@Xerxes2005]

True. But I can understand him too. He really did love her. But Edith had been so insistant and he didn't want to hurt her, so he caved in. And ended up hurting her even more in the end. But he still did the right thing. Divorce was not an option in that class. He looked dreadful. He probably haven't slept, wondering if he was doing the right thing for both of them. And it would have been all over if Martha Levinson didn't take Edith's part...

[@katemaloney4296]

I don't think he ever forgave himself.

[@amberanime]

While I agree to a point, if you have any serious doubts left on the wedding day, as sucky as it is, it's still better and kinder to call it off on that day then to get married and then be stuck with unhappy consequences. Especialy in an age where divorce was not done/scandal. In the end he did it out of love for her. And while the timing was awefull, it was still an act of love. I dont hate him at all, but I do wish he had said something sooner. At any rate I dont think people who leave others at the altar are villains. Rather they are making the hard choice to not go trough with something that feels wrong despite the huge amount of peer presure to do it anyway. Yes, it would be better if they made the choice earlier, and yes people will get hurt. but that hurt is still better then a wrong merriage filled with doubts and guilt. Intention DOES matter. And his intention was for Edith's sake. He wanted to be with her, but he didn't want to tie a young women down to a man like him in the end. And when the moment to tie the knot came it became clear there was no way back. Speak now or forever hold your tongue and all that. So he spoke up. He was not a bad man. Lets not demonise people who cancel weddings at the last moment. As thats still better then the alternative, getting married when it doesn't feel right. Some people dont realise this untill the wedding day. Better late then never applies here.

[@gemmeldrakes2758]

I've been watching the series again recently. Edith clung to Strallan like a limpet. He tried to stop things before they got to the altar but Edith was so insistent and determined to marry, that he caved in. Only to set up that terrible scene at the church.

[@DUCKDUCKGOISMUCHBETTER]

It was primarily Edith's fault. She chased him till she forced him to catch her, as the old saying goes. Of course he should have listened to his own counsel earlier, but she all but backed him into a corner. And he really loved her, and found it very difficult to say no until the last moment. And yes, at that moment he should have held his tongue and went through with it out of honor. But he couldn't. And unfortunately he didn't know it until that moment.

[@GoldenRose116]

[@witwanggibon]

To be honest I didn't love Edith's ending... I imagined her at the helm of her own business (maybe the magazine?) not as some posh big lady. She always seemed happiest when she had a purpose and was doing real work, like with the soldiers or when working with Gregson. She and Bertie are a great match, but I don't think she'll be happy throwing tea parties and cutting ribbons for the rest of her life

[@harringt100]

[@JohnJones-md9gj]

In a way, Sir Anthony saved Edith's life. She would've never met Michael Gregson otherwise.. never would've had Marigold, nor inherited Gregson's publishing company, nor pursued a fulfilling career in writing/publishing/editing and she would've definitely not been able to meet nor marry the love her life who would turn out to be a Marquess. I applaud him for letting her go despite his obvious fondness for her. I don't think Edith loved Sir Anthony either, at least not truly. He was simply the only one to give her his full attention and devotion, something that she's unfortunately been given nothing of all her life. It's no wonder she wanted to cling to him. So all in all, good for Edith for going through this tough time!

[@lorddread606]

@@JohnJones-md9gj - I agree with everything you said except for one thing. Sir Anthony did not save Lady Edith’s life by jilting her in the altar. What he did is still despicable and he should not have proposed to her to begin with. Everything else that happened to Lady Edith is on her, both the good and the bad.

[@sarasamaletdin4574]

@ John Jones She would have had other children and while she would have been unlikely to get into publishing specifically she could have done something else, novel writing for example wasn’t seen as odd for women of the class by that point, and actually popular in a decades time. She would not have become a Marquises but I don’t care for titles (her home would have been good one in any case). And of course she would not have married who she did but it doesn’t mean she would have not been happy with Anthony or could not have remarried if he died. And the main point is that leaving someone at the altar is terrible. He could have left the day before or actually gone through with the ceremony and the party but not the wedding night and gotten an annulment, it would’ve been less humiliating for her. And Edith suffered a great deal in what happened, just because the end was good it doesn’t mean it was inevitable either.

[@pragyamanral]

This was the worst way to break up the marriage. Up untill the point of marriage he had multiple chances to do it. He was a good and kind man and i had sympathy for him throughout his storyline but jilting her at the altar was too reckless and cruel.

I hated her when she told the Turkish embassy about Mr. Pamuk. And the way she kept pushing herself on all those guys who didn’t want her. Laura Carmichael is an incredible actress because she portrays Edith in a way that shows that she is not a pure victim of life; her own actions oftentimes contributed to her misfortune.

She had many good qualities but people overlook them. Once you get to know her she’s a wonderful person. She might say something mean but doesn’t define her as a character. That’s why she is my favourite in the entire series along with Sybil. Oh Sybil 😩😭

I feel very bad for Edith, but this scene explains why I like Mary more. Mary was much nicer to Edith on her wedding day than Edith was to Mary.

[@amsaric]

Well, it was very easy for Mary to be nice to Edith on her wedding day when she had everything she ever wanted in the world coming true that same day: she had the love of her life, she had the finances to save her home... Mary was always “much nicer” when she had everything but the moment she was miserable she was horrible to Edith. As Edith got older, even in her misery she wasn’t unkind to Mary. And she had such a rough life, truly. She was definitely horrid to Mary when she was younger though Mary often provoked it.

the only day to be honest. Most of the time Edith is nicer to Mary then the other way around. Especially after Matthew died

[@tanayac]

Not to take sides, but let's not forget Edith's reputation destroying letter to the Turkish ambassador in s1. She had no reason to do it, other than jealousy and sadness. To blame Mary for being engaged Patrick is silly - he was not a chicken she bought, but a man who made his choice.

Also, Edith's behavior with the Drewes over Marigold was so phenomenally selfish that I lost all sympathy for her. Yes, I understand she wanted her child back, but to not give a damn about the people who saved her ass and had their lives destroyed was sickening to watch.

[@GoldenRose116]

@@tanayac She did it because her parents always ignored her and in basically every scene Mary was a bitch to her and mocked her behind her back. plus what was she suppose to do with the Drewes? Its not her fault mrs.Drew was kinda crazy and mr. Drew never told her.

Anthony did the right thing, Edith should have a younger husband , then she could have her children.

Wish he hadn't left the show

Edith is lucky Anthony didn't go thru with the wedding

[@phalynwilliams4119]

Agreed but at the time it was downright humiliating. It justified her father’s earlier efforts to break them up. Edith chased that man throughout their relationship. I believe that they loved each other but it was a poor match.

True dat

Oh yeah when Edith got stood up

[@denisefreitas6727]

Edith's dress was gorgeous!
