Fanny begins to find her place in Portsmouth; she makes friends with Susan and begins to teach her, following Edmund's example. We briefly segue into images of Mr Rushworth in bondage - try to get that picture out of your head!
The Tall Poppy Syndrome may not be familiar to all our listeners, it seems to be a New Zealand and Australian thing, it's about wanting to keep people "in their place" so they don't get a "big head" or "too big for their boots."
