It being the week following the festive period one must divulge ones sentiments towards this years Christmas televisiual offerings! (is that upper crust enough??)
Downton is not full of guns, blood and fisticuffs (apart from the war episode, or the one where Lord G whacks Richard E. Grant, or the various shooting jaunts! Ok there's a fair amount of it!), but what it does provide is a chance to imagine yourself decked out in 1920's charm using wit and charisma to get yourself through any situation - if only that could work in the modern world!
The episode begins with the Crawley's visiting Rose and her new hubs plus the Sinderby's in a bloomin' castle! Must remember to Google that pad! One word out of the snobbish Butlers mouth and I knew Thomas was going to get involved! I was not expecting Lord Sinderby to lash out at our boy though, I had hoped that would lead to another example of the Crawley's standing up for they own, but that came in the form of acting as protective hen towards Branson.
I adore the look that wafts across Lady Mary's face when a new potential one night stand appears! Quite the modern woman stuck in the wrong era! Loving her hair - although too drastic for me!
The Bates' predicament is quite the doozy! My bets are that it was infact some complete dark horse who pushed the rotten scoundrel... Hughes?
Speaking of, I was shreiking with sheer joy when Carson proposed!! That is romance and needs to be bottled and sold... that'll buy them every B&B in Thirsk if they wanted it!
I'm still ploughing on through Made In Chelsea (Season 3). Current views.
- Who is Lucy, when will she be leaving and will Jamie just slap her already?
- Millie and Rosie vs Victoria aka 'dog-gate'... best ever! "Herbie doesn't like other dogs'"
- Season 3 Francis has gone strange! They obv tried to change his image away from 'suit man' but now the hippy cardi's over the shirt, unshaven on a skateboard look, pining over Sophia and awkwardly flitting his eyes around when he doesn't know how to respond to something makes for cringe viewing!
