ITV’s Sanditon Season 2 Episode 6 continues to surprise its viewership. The season finale comes along! If you’re not familiar with Sanditon, it is a period series based upon the famous unfinished novel by Jane Austin. It was adapted by Andrew Davies and features a diverse cast playing characters during the Regency period.
While Jane Austen had initially written about eleven chapters of the novel and the writers basically used the characters to develop the stories. On another point, the series features Rose Williams, Theo James, Anne James, Kris Marshall, Jack Fox, and Charlotte Spencer. Now, without any further ado, let’s take a look at the episode!
Sanditon Season 2 Episode 5 Recap
When Sidney’s luggage arrived from Antigua with a note warning Tom and Arthur about the portraitist and his desire to take Georgiana’s large fortune, it was the moment of truth for artist Charles Lockhart. Georgiana was once again disabused of her naive confidence in romance when Tom, Mary, and Arthur arrived at the Hankins’ home just in time to prevent her from fleeing and marrying the charlatan.
Georgiana ended her relationship with Charles on the spot, but she also paraphrased his reasoning from the suit he filed against her late father’s estate. He questioned her paternity and claimed he deserved his uncle’s money more than she did. At first, Charles refused to go, calling Sanditon and its citizens “ridiculous.”
Arthur Steps in
This was when Arthur chimed in, saying that while he and the other beach town residents were ridiculous, at least they were honest and sincere. Thankfully, Georgiana received some excellent news from Sidney’s correspondence when she learned that her mother had been looking for her and might still be alive.
Clara exposed Edward for the monster he is at Lady Denham’s opulent estate when she smashed Esther’s wine glass at the pre-wedding breakfast and disclosed that her fiancé had been poisoning his unwitting stepsister. After that, Clara confessed that they’d been stealing and concealing Lord Babington’s letters to his wife Esther, and she begged pardon.
The Wedding Was No More
Clara and Edward’s wedding was, of course, canceled. Much to Lady Denham’s surprise, Esther forgave Clara because she thought the new mother was just as much a victim of Edward’s cruel ways as she was. Perhaps this is why Clara had run away by the end of the episode, leaving her son George in Esther’s care to raise as her own.
Charlotte and Alexander were the last to be uncoupled. At first, the widower couldn’t seem to get enough of Charlotte, kissing her and holding her hand. After speaking with Colonel Lennox, however, Alexander’s self-sabotage and uncertainty got the better of him. He concluded that Charlotte deserved a higher kind of love than he could provide. He sacked her as the daughter’s governess.
Consolation Prizes
He offered Charlotte six months’ wages as a consolation, but an enraged and tearful Charlotte vehemently yelled, “It’s never about the money,” and rushed off. Augusta screamed as she saw Charlotte go away, pleading with her uncle to bring Charlotte back since she’d been so good to her and Leo, even making Alexander a better man.
The Ending
When Alexander finally caught up with Charlotte, he didn’t ask for her hand in marriage. Instead, he attempted to rehire Charlotte as his governess, but she turned him down. Charlotte was engaged to that farmer dude Ralph from her village two months later, and Alexander and the girls left for unknown lands.
Charlotte’s sister Alison, on the other hand, had a happy ending when she happily married former redcoat Declan Fraser. Alison was initially stuck in the friend zone by the captain-turned-farmer. But he soon came to his senses and asked her to marry him. Next season, let’s hope Charlotte and Georgiana have better luck with love.
