This page needs clean-up. It has problems with Conversation On The Main Page, Example Indentation and Zero Context Examples.
Zapping because the additional entries suggest it doesn't fit the trope.
- Beauty, Brains, and Brawn: The three Crawley daughters can be viewed this way, with Mary (socially accomplished, stunning and subject to numerous suitors throughout the series) as Beauty, Sybil (politically inclined and a trained nurse) as Brains, and Edith (learns to drive and works as a farm hand) as Brawn.
- Yet Edith shows herself to be very Brainy with her articles, and Sybil is undoubtedly beautiful.
- Exactly. Also, it's questionable that any of the three could legitimately be considered "brawny" given their sheltered life.

Zapping:
- Wham Episode
- Series 3, episode 5 — Sybil's death rattled viewers to the core.
- Though it didn’t necessarily have a big effect on the future events of the plot… can it fit the definition of a Wham Episode?

Interesting point about the abolition of entail in 1925. That would be quite a good note to end the series on, since they're in 1921 as of the end of S3. Rather an ironic twist.
Most of the characters listed as The Scrappy are supposed to be hated.I don't think that's the point of the trope.
