Unusually for a period drama, the series is made up of 10 half-hour episodes, with writer Sarah Quintrell having told The Radio Times Writers' Room that this immediately lightens the tone.
"For me, it really shifts in the second block," Bruccoleri said when asked about the show's tone, in an exclusive interview with Radio Times. "The tone really shifts. It feels darker, slightly. I think you’ve still got all the light, comedic, beautiful repartee, but then it feels a bit more meaty, a bit gristlier, I think."
"I think when you know you've got to encapsulate these episodes within half an hour, you have to have pace, but you also don't want to lose any of the nuances of it.”
She continued: "I had skepticisms around it. I think it works. And weirdly, those latter episodes are still half an hour long, but you feel like you can sit in the emotion and the feelings a bit more. Obviously you're setting it up, aren't you, for the first few episodes, so the pace is a bit quicker.”
"But I remember reading the sequence, it's a montage right early on in the first episode, where the family setup is explained, and they do it so economically and so beautifully.
Bruccoleri said that "there's loads of comedy packed into" the series, but that it "toes a line" and feels "like sort of tragicomedy for me".
