Vanity Fair spoilers
In the sixth episode last week, Becky (Olivia Cooke) worked out how to live well on nothing a year, but flew too high as she joined the dizzy ranks of lords, ladies and kings.
The series concludes this evening as Becky is lost and then she is found, but will she have a happy ending?
