Kickstarter!
Hooray for the news of Miss Fisher and the Crypt of Tears!!! Go to Kickstarter to pledge, if you haven’t already. The clock is winding down, but there’s still time!
And now, welcome to Brown Town.
We needed to add some color to this otherwise very brown show, so we invited back the always-fabulous JoJo Stiletto to help us dissect this episode. Also joining us is the delightful and witty Sailor St. Claire, who has a past as a “reluctant wine maker” and also a wine reviewer. Sailor takes us through the process of making wine, we take a poll on feelz regarding the controversial scarf, we talk role reversals, and we revel in the sumptuousness of the final scene.
The discussion is also helped along by our imbibing of wine that hails from the region featured in the episode. Shout out to Patrick, local wine expert and fellow Miss Fisher fan, who helped us select the good stuff!

Two things so far – friends of mine have lemon trees that produce all year round. I can send photos if you like 🙂
Second – the ‘rules’ about clothes that you’re talking about were created by the old money cranks to exclude the nouveau riche here in the US in the late 1800’s. My guess (and I will try to research this when I have time) is that those rules had no hold in Australia. The whole white after labor day?? US. “every year you will still hear people say that white after Labor Day is unacceptable, all thanks to some snobby millionaires who decided that was a fashion no-no more than 100 years ago.” Coco Chanel thought that crap and wore white year round 🙂
Hi Loran!
Thanks for letting us know about the lemon trees. How lovely it must be to get lemons all year long!
Your information on the history of clothing “rules” is fascinating. We can almost hear the conversation between two Old Money women wherein one makes a disparaging comment about the white dress of a New Money woman, the other agrees, they tell one more Old Money woman, and—voila—it’s now a Rule.
