I am thoroughly enjoying the series and it is just escapism. It may be inaccurate and bear little relationship to the original but the beeb, bless them, seem to have taken an incident in the book that lasts for an odd line or two, a paragraph or even a page or two and reworked it to a whole episode. As for Queenie calling the quarters... I don't know. I wasn't alive then and don't know anyone who was to tell me if they did do that then.
