Not even poor Hetta? I know in the book she's an underdone, drippy, all-round inferior attempt at Amy Dorrit, but Davies and the actress really build her into a sweet, wry, intelligent, passionate character I liked quite a bit. Plus, Georgiana Longstaffe does show snobbish/racist colors in the end, but I found her plight and intelligence engaging and often sympathetic (and her suitor was a stand up man).
