Trivia
When Mr. Selfridge says "nice hat, son" to Gordon in season one, the actual line was meant to be "nice Toby, son," but the young actor didn't understand the reference and so the dialogue was changed.

I must admit I am not a huge fan of period drama. For me it is like watching paint dry. But I only gave this chance because I personally love Jeremy Piven. Thought he was the best thing in Entourage. (if anybody is listening give Ari Gold his own movie!!!!) anyway back to Mr S. it's Definitely easy watching not like other period dramas. Although I am not an expert about period pieces I am sure it's not very accurate and also not true. But watching this little gem puts a smile on my face. I personally watch shows like this to get away from the real world and this is just right. Masterpiece?. Maybe not but Definitely funny, witty, and very very easy going. Is it sense and sensibility? No it's not. But then again thank god for that. I know a lot of you are out there probably complaining Alan Does know his movies, but let me tell you this, one of my favourite movies of all time is Woody Allens b&w masterclass Manhattan. So go figure. Overall. Easy going, fun and well worth the watch. Give it chance people.
