Ive thought about this for many years. And i didnt want to make a rash judgement and fleese her for no reason.

BUT - doesnt she act vey bad in episode one of Jewel?

It seems like she over acts -- like you would in a theatre play.

I love her indian "aunt" though - anyone know her name?

Not at all! She's wonderful. Have you read the book? Her interpretation of Daphne fits the part perfectly.

I agree, though, about Zohra Sehgal as "Aunt" Lili: she's delightful.
