There is a new whistle Doown. 17 00:01:03,834 --> 00:01:05,234 Speaker 1: I just want to float my own boat that I 18 00:01:05,274 --> 00:01:06,394 Speaker 1: did say that they should do this. 19 00:01:07,714 --> 00:01:08,914 Speaker 3: They heard this podcast. 20 00:01:08,994 --> 00:01:11,794 Speaker 1: I said, let's take a page out of Gossip Girl's 21 00:01:11,794 --> 00:01:14,794 Speaker 1: book and let's spin things around a little bit. And 22 00:01:14,834 --> 00:01:16,074 Speaker 1: that's what they've done. Well. 23 00:01:16,154 --> 00:01:18,434 Speaker 2: Jess Brownell admitted that they've gone rogue here. This never 24 00:01:18,474 --> 00:01:20,914 Speaker 2: happened in the books. And remember in the books, Colin's 25 00:01:20,954 --> 00:01:24,274 Speaker 2: book is after Benedict's. So reading this book and offer 26 00:01:24,314 --> 00:01:26,474 Speaker 2: from a gentleman. We don't know who Lady Whistledowan is. 27 00:01:26,914 --> 00:01:29,274 Speaker 2: But look, we have discussed the role of gossip in 28 00:01:29,354 --> 00:01:31,954 Speaker 2: this podcast previously and the most important part is that 29 00:01:32,034 --> 00:01:33,994 Speaker 2: it was real. These scandal sheets were real. The most 30 00:01:33,994 --> 00:01:37,314 Speaker 2: famous was the Teta tet column in Town and Country magazine, 31 00:01:37,354 --> 00:01:39,434 Speaker 2: which we would all be subscribers to if we lived 32 00:01:39,434 --> 00:01:39,834 Speaker 2: in this time. 33 00:01:39,994 --> 00:01:40,674 Speaker 1: Is that even mean? 34 00:01:40,794 --> 00:01:41,194 Speaker 3: Yeah? 35 00:01:41,274 --> 00:01:45,394 Speaker 2: Head to head? Ah. So history tells us all about 36 00:01:45,434 --> 00:01:48,434 Speaker 2: women like Elizabeth Johnson, who edited the Sunday Monitor, and 37 00:01:48,474 --> 00:01:52,074 Speaker 2: Elizabeth Archbald, who wrote gossip for the World Newspaper. It's 38 00:01:52,114 --> 00:01:54,714 Speaker 2: an era where women couldn't vote, they couldn't own property, 39 00:01:55,034 --> 00:01:57,314 Speaker 2: but they could be the most powerful person in society 40 00:01:57,314 --> 00:02:00,754 Speaker 2: by writing these gossip sheets. But they didn't name names 41 00:02:00,914 --> 00:02:02,114 Speaker 2: like our mate Penelope. 42 00:02:02,274 --> 00:02:05,434 Speaker 3: So I was curious after we realized that it was Penelope, 43 00:02:05,474 --> 00:02:07,794 Speaker 3: why she wasn't doing the voiceover and why they kept 44 00:02:07,834 --> 00:02:11,353 Speaker 3: it as Julie Andrews. So in the end episode, I 45 00:02:11,394 --> 00:02:13,833 Speaker 3: don't know if you guys noticed this that Julia Andrews 46 00:02:13,913 --> 00:02:18,394 Speaker 3: does deliver the latest whistle down slightly different like o 47 00:02:18,514 --> 00:02:21,074 Speaker 3: Cadence the syntax of how she's speaking to do you guys notice? 48 00:02:21,274 --> 00:02:24,434 Speaker 1: Yes, and everyone online has also noticed, and that kind 49 00:02:24,434 --> 00:02:27,074 Speaker 1: of weaves into the theories about who it could be. 50 00:02:27,194 --> 00:02:30,394 Speaker 1: Particularly the biggest evidence is that they think it is 51 00:02:30,434 --> 00:02:33,674 Speaker 1: a man. They thought that the language was stronger, harsher, 52 00:02:33,834 --> 00:02:36,754 Speaker 1: and that is how a man speak less whimsy. See. 53 00:02:36,754 --> 00:02:38,793 Speaker 2: I read a lot of comments in this reddit deep 54 00:02:38,834 --> 00:02:41,474 Speaker 2: dive I did where they think that the voice sort 55 00:02:41,514 --> 00:02:44,914 Speaker 2: of morphed into the voice of Valley, the Featherington's ex 56 00:02:44,994 --> 00:02:48,314 Speaker 2: housekeeper and now the pen housekeeper. Now Julie Andrews is 57 00:02:48,314 --> 00:02:50,954 Speaker 2: still narrating it, and that is still Julie Andrews's voice. 58 00:02:51,074 --> 00:02:52,514 Speaker 2: And if you're a fan of hers like I am, 59 00:02:52,554 --> 00:02:54,194 Speaker 2: you know that one of her most famous roles was 60 00:02:54,194 --> 00:02:57,514 Speaker 2: Eliza Doolittle. The woman can do Cockney lower class accent. 61 00:02:57,594 --> 00:03:01,354 Speaker 2: So that's still Julie Andrews doing the vo like a pro. Now, 62 00:03:01,434 --> 00:03:04,274 Speaker 2: Jess BROWNO in the past has hinted at looking at 63 00:03:04,274 --> 00:03:06,913 Speaker 2: the people who keep these homes magnificent, which made people 64 00:03:06,954 --> 00:03:09,514 Speaker 2: think it was Vali. She's the ultimate gossip right, She 65 00:03:09,514 --> 00:03:12,554 Speaker 2: knows all the Featherington's secrets. She's a master of forgery. 66 00:03:12,634 --> 00:03:14,994 Speaker 2: We saw that in season two with the estate papers. 67 00:03:15,274 --> 00:03:17,954 Speaker 2: But I would say Vali's absolutely not an option. I 68 00:03:17,994 --> 00:03:19,314 Speaker 2: have a lot better theories. 69 00:03:19,474 --> 00:03:21,594 Speaker 3: Say Okay, let's dive into this because this is the 70 00:03:21,594 --> 00:03:24,594 Speaker 3: thing we're the most excited about to discuss live. I'm 71 00:03:24,594 --> 00:03:26,194 Speaker 3: going to hand it over to you to tell us 72 00:03:26,234 --> 00:03:27,394 Speaker 3: what everyone is saying. 73 00:03:27,514 --> 00:03:30,314 Speaker 1: Yes, okay, So I've done a lot of investigation on TikTok. 74 00:03:30,354 --> 00:03:33,234 Speaker 1: TikTok comments are the best place on earth, and I 75 00:03:33,234 --> 00:03:45,634 Speaker 1: would like to read you I have three Mamma Mia 76 00:03:45,714 --> 00:03:48,754 Speaker 1: acknowledges the traditional owners of the land.
