Fun little peak into Anne Lister’s life. Doesn’t add much beyond the narrative of the show. It was nice to see quotes from the diaries to appreciate Lister’s voice and eccentricities. Also complicates her narrative with politics, which I think is something good to know rather than to gloss over,

There are sections that discuss political/scientific views of the time that are inherently racist. Also some level of non-consent/questionable consent/mental ability to consent that occur between Lister and Walker.
