I'm glad they addressed that, though. It would be easy, especially in something geared to all ages, to not address the racial issue at all. Maybe I'm just used to the, in general, controversary-avoiding American programming. Don't mind me, I've been thesis-ing all day.I'm pretty sure there's a cream for that. It might be prescription only, though... **snicker** Ahem. I too like that they brought race and class, appropriately for the time period, into it.

Excellent first part. The scarecrows creeped me out. The shapes of their heads, the sewn up eyes and mouths. *shudder* I like how the sucked us into believing that Martha also was part of the 1913 world. But, then we saw how she reacted to the pricky school boy and his racial slur. I knew then that she was definitely not part of that world in mind. Yep! Me too! **bounces** Plus, she sort of quietly said the thing about maybe the boys not being the future leaders that made me realise she was thinking ahead to WWI, so I was doubly convinced then that she remembered things.
