Break In

The Girls return home one evening, and find the House has been burgled.

A classic episode, it manages to be super funny, touching, and actually quite realistic, anyone that has suffered the harrowing event of being burgled will understand the fear.

Several funny moments, the writing once again is absolutely brilliant, Dorothy does her side splitting stares, Sophia comes out with some hilarious one liners. Blanche's revelation about the hairspray was a classic moment.

Rose's fear is actually well realised, she definitely went to extremes and desperate measures, although the gun thing, being a Brit of course, it seems absolutely zany to me, a weapon in the hands of someone with no training, it baffles me. Loved the scene where Dorothy comforted an upset Rose.

Classic.

8/10.

This is one of the best episodes of the series and a highlight of the season. It is combines laughs and a plausible storyline to make a touching episode. Rose's fear really rings true. What I find interesting is that Rose getting a gun is considered the height of paranoia-a plot point that would cause much gnashing of teeth today. But this idea is more stark today.
