Meghan's not much of an actress, says LIZ JONES, but even she's let 負かす／撃墜する by the HUMOURLESS TRASH that is 控訴s. So, why is the BBC 公表／放送 this mind-numbing nonsense?

Meghan Markle got her big break when she joined the cast of 控訴s in July 2011

The BBC have snapped up 控訴s even thought it has been 利用できる on Netflix for more than a year, becoming the most streamed show of 2023

Meghan, playing Rachel Zane, does her valiant best but, as a reviewer commented when the BBC 発表するd its scoop: ‘Beneath all the smart-ass 対話 there isn’t a lot of real depth.’

The 控訴s wedding scene in which Meghan's character Rachel says 'I do'

Meghan was in 控訴s before she married into the 王室の Family, but she only became 井戸／弁護士席-known in the UK when she she met Prince Harry - and 'paraded in a cream coat around the gardens of Kensington Palace'

We all know that Meghan was in 控訴s before she married into the 王室の Family (井戸／弁護士席, we know now - I'd never heard of Meghan until she paraded in a cream coat around the gardens of Kensington Palace.)?

And it’s no longer a pre-requisite for 王室の brides to have never had a life, a previous husband, or even gainful 雇用.

It’s not even 特に awful that the Duchess of Sussex is seen in her bra on 審査する. Having fictional sex! We are all grown up enough to separate fact from 摩擦.

No, my problem with 控訴s is that it's humourless trash, although we can’t 非難する Meghan for that.

She will have taken the 職業 on the strength of a 操縦する.

These series are always a 賭事. I’m 確かな that when was cast in the 役割 of Rachel Zane, the pencil-skirted paralegal who has a 抱擁する 半導体素子 on her shoulder, given she hadn’t gone to Harvard, Meghan saw it as a chance to portray a strong 黒人／ボイコット woman who takes no 囚人s, a feminist 確信して enough to expose her Victoria’s Secrets.

She won’t have been able to develop character or story arcs, and was doubtless happy, before she met Harry, to be tied into a 契約 with a dependable, lucrat ive salary.

The arrival of 控訴s 公表／放送 on the BBC iplayer some time soon will do nothing to help the 残り／休憩（する） of the Windsors - and will only 増強する fact that our 王室の Family has turned into a 説得力のある soap オペラ along the lines of 王朝.

Were you waiting, when Meghan and Catherine 現れるd to 迎える／歓迎する 会葬者s ahead of the Queen’s funeral, for them to start 格闘するing before 落ちるing into a Windsor Park lake, a la Alexis and Krystle?

控訴s is just not on a par with with the work of another actress-turned-王室の in, say, 後部 Window or High Society.

The 質 of those movies only 追加するd sheen to the stuffy, mostly unknown Grimaldi family into which Grace Kelly had married.

Those big 審査する, Oscar winning 役割s 悪賢いd her with a veneer of class, even though, in 受託するing Prince Rainier's millions, she retired from 事実上の／代理.

The bald (sorry, Haz) fact is 控訴s is leaden, with convoluted story lines and 法人組織の／企業の chicanery: LA 法律 it is not.

Sadly, there is 非，不，無 of the likeable ditzy-ness of an 同盟（する） McBeal.

Rachel Zane is as prickly as a porcupine: ‘Do you think this is a year-一連の会議、交渉／完成する tan?’ she snaps.

She is always 脅すing to 告訴する anyone who slights her. If I’d been Harry, 株ing a family subscription to Netflix, にもかかわらず the fact on 審査する she looks incredible, I’d have run a country mile.

He should have worried the 欠如（する） of humour, of even an ounce of self 認識／意識性, wasn’t in fact a brilliant piece of Method 事実上の／代理. She was 単に playing herself.

Meghan does her valiant best but, as a reviewer commented when the BBC 発表するd its scoop: ‘Beneath all the smart-ass 対話 there isn’t a lot of real depth.’

For me, sh e has all the 劇の nuance of something King Charles might 工場／植物 to 取り組む 気候 change. She tries valiantly to 伝える, as Dorothy Parker put it, ‘The gamut of emotions from A to B.’

If the Sussexes had stayed as 上級の working 王室のs, the BBC would not have touched 控訴s with a 船 政治家: to 審査する it would have been tantamount to 公表／放送 the final season of the 栄冠を与える 直接／まっすぐに after the King’s Christmas message.

I imagine on 審理，公聴会 this news at home in Montecito, Meghan must have been thrilled at what she will see as a piece of 法人組織の／企業の, mainstream validation.

Meghan's real wedding was a little more high profile and took place in Windsor, not on 審査する...

I don’t agree.

The BBC 単に wants to attract 女性（の） テレビ視聴者s who are tired of endless sport on our terrestrial channels and are in need of a 位置／汚点／見つけ出す of mind-numbing, retro rogering in the stationery cupboard…

Having given myself an ice cream 頭痛 速度(を上げる） watching all 134 episodes, 権利 up to the scene where Rachel Zane gets married, I can 明らかにする／漏らす that her 最高潮の場面s take just 12 minutes on Youtube.

If you do 現実に have a life.
