** Several participants eventually BecameTheMask, most of them belonging to the privileged upstairs. For instance, John, playing the roll of a newly-knighted nouveau riche, becomes arrogant, assuring himself constantly that he is a benevolent employer who understands the hardships downstairs is going through and absolutely ''hates'' to add to their burdens, while at the same time being unyielding, unsympathetic, demanding and bigoted to them and others, seemingly oblivious to the fact that his personal opinions are starting to sound increasingly dismissive and self-entitled--at one point, his servants overhear him saying there are three levels of society, the knobs, the scutter, and the dregs (the latter referring to the servants), and he even tells his sister-in-law that he thinks educating women is a waste of money. However his wife, Dr. Anna Oliff-Cooper, is possibly the most extreme example. A modern, well-educated, capable, intelligent medical doctor in the beginning, but after just three months of living the life of an upper-crust Edwardian society woman... it's like she's been brainwashed. It gets just a tad eerie.

** Averted, by contrast, by her sister Prof. Dr. Avril Anson. Because her Edwardian position as an unwed spinster is no where near as critical to the household or as pleasant as Lady Oliff-Cooper's, she spends most of the series quietly disagreeing with everything she sees, trying to deal with the "gilded cage" she's been locked in, and deeply upset by the changes in personality her family members have displayed. She becomes stressed and emotionally exhausted to the point where she has to leave the show temporarily for her own emotional wellbeing.
