I wonder what they talked about? Written by Jenny Allan (10/5/2005 4:13 p.m.) in consequence of the missive, Benwick suicide?, penned by Cheryl

I've always been struck by this episode. I wonder what they talked about? Given that Benwick's fiancee had just died, I'm sure Wentworth's own loss was in his mind, just as it was when Anne met Benwick. Then again, I can see Wentworth trying to distract benwick with more mundane things to keep his spirits up.
