I’ve probably liked everything she’s worn so far and she has a lot of different pieces.The blouse and skirt she wore at the doctor’s office were such a lovely combination and both pieces looked like original 1930s garments. Just my kind of humour, the characters are hugely entertaining. When I first heard that ITV was producing a new period drama based on Britain’s most famous naturalist, Gerald Durrell’s, novels I was rather sceptic. I have been very much enjoying this programme, and want to read the books now. Yes, that bikini was gorgeous, very racy for those times though. xxxOh no, that’s such a shame! Larry either opts for a classic Breton top, perfect for the hot weather, or just doesn’t bother getting dressed at all, but rather walks around in his underwear and dressing gown.Whereas both Leslie, who loves nothing more than going hunting and generally firing his gun, and Gerry, whose fascination with the local wildlife no matter how weird and wonderful, creates a menagerie of new house guests, live in khaki shorts and white or blue shirts.The Durrells has proven a surprise hit for ITV, having brought in a total of 8.2m viewers for the first episode, and has become the most watched ITV drama of 2016. For all the time (and it has been a lot) that I’ve spent in the water in my life (more so in my youth), I can confidentially say I’ve never tried that (strange takeaway point from a fashion centered post, i know :)).Hahaha, that’s brilliant! Does that style have a name? I loved the 1987 My Family and Other Animals and I got a lovely hardback copy of the book that year.

(not up for a bikini though)Oh that’s brilliant, I’m glad it’s finally available in America! "The Durrells in Corfu" Episode #3.1 (TV Episode 2018) cast and crew credits, including actors, actresses, directors, writers and more.

xxThe books are wonderful!

She made her acting debut in 2014 on stage in The Crucible and has also appeared in Testament Of Youth. Can you see those amazing checked pintucks underneath the neckline? Daisy lives in south London. They wesr them outside and inside.

As a result a second series has already been commissioned for next year, which I’m so excited about. Where can I get one?It’s wonderful isn’t it? I usually tie mine around the handle of my hand luggage on a flight so it’s ready to keep my hair tied back as soon as I land. It’s a really plain skirt apart from the four knife pleats down the centre front. The green and white wiggly check print dress is definitely my second favourite dress of the show after Louisa’s polka dot one.

I’m looking forward to seeing more of your 30s looks. Great post about it, Cate! She also has a couple of pairs of trousers which is lovely to see in a 1930s based programme. Find out more xxPBS just aired the 1st episode here in the US. The Durrell’s don’t have much money, so costume designer Charlotte Holditch dresses Margo has a small handful of garments that she re-wears often, combining them to create swoon-worthy but attainable style.

The first was in 1987 and starred the legendary Brian Blessed and the second, which I loved, was in 2005 and starred my beloved Matthew Goode and the incredibly talented Russell Tovey. As for a bag, I’d take inspiration from Mrs Durrell and opt for a woven style, preferably with an added cross-body strap for when I’m out and about.We rely on advertising to help fund our award-winning journalism.We urge you to turn off your ad blocker for The Telegraph website so that you can continue to access our quality content in the future.

Louisa Durrell xxI’ll be keeping my eye out for when we might get this down under!Oh I hope you do! The sleeveless one I really need to make, it would be so lovely for the summer and so different from the usual boxy round neck sleeveless blouses with buttons down the back I already have. Do you know where I could purchase this? Absolutely adore it and *need* to make most of the ladies’ wardrobes from the show.Oh, I’m so glad you get it in America too! I want one!I’m glad you liked it! Enjoy the rest of the series.I am green with envy for Gerald’s hat. I’m sure they’ll be eager to sell it to international networks.

I love the bias binding around the wrap over neckline and it opens up so many options and versions I could make.I also really, really love the skirt she wears with it in mustard yellow. I do love her hat as they’re more everyday hats and not over the top showy ones. Heavy, wild vertical patterns.

She loves nothing better than lying in the sun, flirting with boys and dreaming about clothes. . xxI have been waiting eagerly for you to post on this! However, their problems don’t stop there and they have to adapt to a life very different from what they’ve known.Of course, I couldn’t let the first series of The Durrells finish without exploring the wonderful costumes by Charlotte Holdich on display in this fabulous new show. ?I know the one you mean, they were known as Duster Coats and women had them too, but they were more often made out of a twill or drill type fabric.

P olka dots feature heavily in The Durrells’ female characters’ costumes and I’ve been inspired to add the pattern into my own wardrobe as … xxI’ve just finished watching the1st series on Netflix and Larry wears a really nice looking woolen coat. xxOkay, I officially need to try eating at a table that’s partially immersed in water now. She is the wife of the local doctor and assists him in his practice. As someone in her mid-40s, Louisa is a massive inspiration.
