‘Mr. Selfridge’ Recap: The Series Finale
Previously, on Mr. Selfridge: Jimmy’s feeling pretty great about himself for getting Harry to buy London department store Whiteleys. Or at least he is until he realizes that he’s terrible at his new job, and didn’t pay attention to simple business lessons from Crabbe like “How to Keep Your Store Stocked with Items to Sell”. He basically blackmails Crabbe and George Towler into helping him smuggle Selfridges goods into Whiteleys to sell, but of course they get caught and now everyone’s in trouble. Mae’s having some regrets about her decision to sleep with Harry. Lord Wynnstay’s reporter manages to dig up enough conflicting info on Jimmy to run a story that maybe implicates him in Victor’s death, and Harry’s furious. He tells Jimmy he has a PR plan ready to fight back, but Jimmy just confesses that, actually, he killed Victor after all. Harry is horrified, even more so after he learns that Mae suspected Jimmy and didn’t say anything. Jimmy, for his part, throws himself off Westminster bridge because he can’t face what he’s done.
Want more details? Last week’s recap is right this way.
Before we dive into this last ever installment of our Mr. Selfridge recaps here at Telly Visions, allow me to just say a big, loud THANK YOU to everyone who has stuck with me through four years of writing about this show. Thank you for always reading and commenting and sharing, whether the recaps were complaining about Harry, swooning over Henri, hating on Mr. Grove or loving Rose. It’s been a wild ride, but I’m grateful for every pair of eyeballs that’s read any of this. So, you know. Thanks.
