When you critique other people's grasp of English, it helps if you don't make obvious mistakes in your own writing.
I find it interesting myself that one of the leading contenders in the Canadian Maria is very much a "Jodie" type, namely Donna. For all the caustic remarks I've seen here about size, a significant part of the public seems to treat it as incidental.
And I think announcing Burn Gorman's casting would have worked in Jodie's favour rather than Jessie's, given that Burn is nearly twice Jessie's age. If they'd cast Gareth David- Lloyd, who's a little taller and broader and a fair bit younger than Burn (and also auditioned), then Jessie would've worked better against him. Given that Burn is 7 inches taller and 6 years older than Jodie, I think they will work well together.
