i really love this show mainly due to the brilliant acting of anthony andrew who i believe be cast perfectly for this role . he play the role of the charm william perfectly . in my opinion his performance really make jewel a success . i like annette otoole also and but find her performance a little grating especially in the labour scene which i think be a little over the top . i prefer the first half of the series to the second half . i think that it turn into a bit of a soap opera to me with all their wayward child and their love live positive . i could watch the first half where william and sarah first meet over and over though . anthony performance make jewel worth watch .
