The Gilded Age Recap: A Marriage Made on Fifth Avenue


I kept hoping that Gladys would put up more of a fight and find a way to sabotage Bertha’s plan to marry her off … but no.

Hattie Morahan is Blake Ritson’s (Oscar van Rhijn) partner, but more importantly, she played Elinor in the 2008 adaptation of Sense and Sensibility, the screenplay of which was written by Andrew Davies, because if it’s set in the nineteenth century and it’s on the BBC, will they hire anyone else? Ada brings in Madame Dashkova, played by Andrea Martin(how blessed we are with guest stars this week), whose Russian accent is auditioning for the part of the Dowager Empress in a live-action version of 1997’s Anastasia. Mrs. Astor refuses to bring her to the wedding and proceeds to side-eye anyone who asks about Charlotte, including a bewildered Bertha, who has not been keeping up with duel news.
