Downton Abbey - ITV1

I am quoting my own post to add:

Mary "I've never done anything..."

Turkish seducer "Oh, it's okay, we'll just do something which will quite appal you and probably put you off men for life, but don't worry, you'll still be a 'virgin' for your husband."
 
Looking forward to watching this again! Gutted that Single Man is on at the same time on BBC1. I record Downton so I can watch it again, so guess it means BBC iPlayer for the Single Man then.
 
Just wanted to say PW is imo a very good actress, and I thought she was excellent in DW.

Re Downton Abbey. Am I the only one who didn't like it? The phrase watching paint dry springs to mind.

What are we going to do about the entail, valet gets fired, gets reinstated, obligatory gay scene, all utterly boring. Imo what it neeRAB is a good murder, preferably of all the toRAB by the servants.

Upstairs,Downstairs did it much better.

Btw, was the poster who said they'd like to be a servant in a big house in Edwardian times serious?
 
Loved it tonight. Maggie Smith has some great lines. Dan Stephens was very pretty to look at and it was all so easy to sink into. Great Sunday night viewing.
 
Went to bed last night thanking the heavens that I didn`t live at that time......also grateful that when I, at one time, fell on hard times, you could at least rely on the DHS!! Don`t know how much longer others, who might in the future need help, will be able to, what with all this talk of cutbacks!
 
Let's face it, if all the characters from every film/play who were supposed to be on the Titanic had been on board, it would have sunk under its own weight somewhere in the Solent. ;)
 
Isn't supposed to be Lincolnshire?, also isn't there no thing as North Yorkshire accent, like there is no West Yorkshire accent, each town/city has its own accent.
