Monday\u2019s latest instalment of Sanditon<\/a> sees not one, but two marriage proposals \u2013 and neither looks set to have a happy outcome.<\/p>\n The scheming Edward (Jack Fox in the Sanditon cast<\/a>) proposes to Clara Brereton (Lily Sacofsky), who bore his illegitimate child at the end of the previous episode. However, far from having honourable intentions, Edward is clearly only interested in the new source of inheritance that baby George represents.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, the spirited Alison Heywood (Rosie Graham) is stuck in a love triangle, much like her older sister \u2013\u00a0although unlike Charlotte, she seems completely oblivious to one man\u2019s affections for her.<\/p>\n At the start of the episode, Alison only has eyes for the handsome Captain Carter, who plans to ask for her hand at Lady Denham\u2019s garden party.<\/p>\n However, his close friend and war hero Captain Fraser (who is secretly in love with Alison) councils him not to propose, reminding him that their entire courtship has been built on lies (Carter, who has never seen action on a battlefield, \u201cborrowed\u201d some of Fraser\u2019s own heroic exploits and passed the anecdotes off as his own in an attempt to woo Alison).<\/p> Alison soon learns the truth, however, when Carter proposes in a rowing boat. A delighted Alison leaps to her feet and accidentally falls into the lake\u00a0\u2013 and it soon becomes apparent that Carter, who claimed to have saved 50 soldiers from drowning, can\u2019t actually swim.<\/p>\n It\u2019s of course Captain Fraser who rescues her instead, and the enraged Alison immediately breaks off her engagement with the \u201ccoward\u201d Carter and resolves to return home to her family\u2019s farm.<\/p>\n Alexander Colbourne (Ben Lloyd-Hughes) and Colonel Francis Lennox (Tom Weston-Jones) come face-to-face at Lady Denham\u2019s garden party in episode 4, even competing in an archery contest.<\/p>\n There\u2019s still a great deal of animosity between the two men, stemming from a mysterious past connection between themselves and Colbourne\u2019s late wife, Lucy, in addition to the men\u2019s obvious shared affection for Charlotte Heywood (Rose Williams).<\/p>\n However, Lennox is appearing more and more villainous with each episode, racking up huge debts in town, manipulating gambling addict Tom Parker, and cruelly taunting Colbourne after the latter\u2019s teenage niece, Augusta, collapses at the garden party (due to a too-tight corset).<\/p>\n \u201cShe is the very image of her aunt,\u201d Lennox says of Augusta in a private exchange with Colbourne. \u201cWhen she was in my arms it was as if Lucy had come back to me.\u201d<\/p>\n What exactly happened between Colbourne, Lennox, and the late Lucy? And how did she die? More intrigue to follow, no doubt.<\/p>\n Sanditon season 2 airs on BritBox<\/a> in the UK, with new episodes arriving on Mondays. <\/strong>Take a look at the rest of our Drama<\/a> coverage, or check out what else is on with our TV Guide<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n The latest issue of Radio Times is on sale now \u2013\u00a0subscribe now<\/a>\u00a0to get each issue delivered to your door.
