Review of Episode #5.6

Downton Abbey: Episode #5.6 (2014)
Season 5, Episode 6
Blake's Oracle of a Mouth
30 October 2014
Warning: Spoilers
Apparently Fellowes had decided to endowed this man with some keen psychic insight into the hearts and minds of all his female friends and we viewers are supposed to learn such truth from his oracle.

So we have Mable here, oh so still "in love with" Tony... just as Blake had told us previously. Oh and yes, it really was just "a scene they had to play"... for now she's oh so jolly and chummy as ever with Blake, partaking in his scheme and coming to Downton to stalk her love interest.

WTF!

Sorry I just can't swallow it. Between ep 5 and ep6, has Mable undergone some electric shock like Thomas?

And I have to say, next to Bunting, it'll be this man's insolence I can't stand, esp his smug and cocksure manner... oh I know about the whole lot of you better you yourselves. Mary you only wanted to sleep with Tony. Mabel you're still in love with him, oh "I know so" (that Mable had brought enough clothes to stay at downton to stalk Tony... uhghhhh! )etc etc. His oracle of a mouth just can't shut it.

And of course it won't and he has every right to be presumptuous. His omniscient power is fully endorsed by Lord Fellowes.

It's an outrage, this foul treatment of Mable. (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1606375/board/thread/235867763)
