I read Gillian Anderson will be playing battle-axe Maggie Thatcher on
The Crown. That should be something to see. Anderson has been more
interesting, at least to me, than her partner in crime solving David
Duchovny, who's actually a pretty breezy writer. She's done more
interesting films and series and has been nominated for Olivier awards
for her stage work. But the real key to Anderson's allure is her being
bidialectical, which means that Downton accent she uses in The Fall is
authentically hers.
