...thoughts of Prince Charles stray into your mind as you watch His Grace, that's your business. The same is true of Georgiana, who is the ancestor of Princess Di, except, that in the 18th century, her brain cells were not yet completely replaced by air. She conveys a nice sense of an untutored woman trying to embrace the world beyond the bounds of her class, while not being harassed by it - or by the tabloids, which existed in primitive form in those days, too. The Duchess, however, does not insist on such analogies; they're there...

...challenge is to prove that he's also attractive to the ABC and Dane Cook and MLB crowds. During the primaries, Joe Biden took flak for his dopey description of Obama as "the first mainstream African American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy."
