I am charmed with it since they have done everything. In addition the actors are very good.Construccion de piscinashttp://www.construcciondepiscinas.es/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8833418224175267236.post-28965230398149752982011-10-26T08:31:32.263-04:002011-10-26T08:31:32.263-04:00@Noelia-Glad you love Downton too!

I really hope to continue producing more things like this in the factory yours to the delight of all.<br />It's just perfect the atmosphere of the time and classes cohabit in it. And then you come to mind the equally wonderful "Upstairs, Downstairs", although old, is still a benchmark.<br />It's a series for lovers of vintage series, craftsmanship and drama students in our country.Noelia Chatear Gratishttp://www.chateargratis.org/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8833418224175267236.post-40126781855620115422011-02-02T14:56:40.643-05:002011-02-02T14:56:40.643-05:00I enjoyed your review, Jenny.

I love the Dowager's lines, espeially in Episode 4, so many good ones!<br /><br />It will be hard waiting a year for season two!Meredithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07081700715706497061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8833418224175267236.post-41534801037081665552011-01-31T22:30:36.993-05:002011-01-31T22:30:36.993-05:00Mary- Yes, I think that Maggie Smith and Penelope ...Mary- Yes, I think that Maggie Smith and Penelope Wilton are the best part of this series. Go ladies!<br /><br />Cheryl-I guess I should have a bit more sympathy for Edith as she has been verbally abused by Mary for years apparently. I think if she hadn't put the whole family's reputation at risk for a bit of sisterly revenge, I'd side with her in a minute. And maybe if she didn't throw herself at anything in pants, but that's my modern sensibility creeping in. I did feel terrible for Sir Anthony Strallen however. He looked crestfallen.<br />Is the Lord of the Manor really going to war? I have to catch up with my Downton gossip! I suppose it makes sense as he had a military background, but I would think him too old to go to battle. I agree with you that they better not do poor Hugh in or many of us middle aged ladies will swoon!Jenny Allworthyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08518779478842699970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8833418224175267236.post-14803176908418409402011-01-31T22:11:17.352-05:002011-01-31T22:11:17.352-05:00"We can't have him assassinated...I suppo..."We can't have him assassinated...I suppose..."<br />Priceless.<br /><br />I guess I'll have to stick up for Edith since she's let you down too many times. I still have a flicker of hope for her. The way that she lit up for Strallen, I thought was sweet! I love the fact that both she and Mary are not one-dimensional characters!<br /><br />I'm wondering why you think Lord Grantham will stay at home? Bonneville has been measured for army outfit and if Fellowes decides that he's the character to die during the war, I'll be mighty upset!<br /><br />And so now we wait... :)Charleybrownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07411948723536117366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8833418224175267236.post-51740501647985302112011-01-31T22:04:20.638-05:002011-01-31T22:04:20.638-05:00I really enjoyed this episode, esp.

Maggie Smith and Penelope Wilton and the exchange between Lord and Lady Grantham when they discussed her "news." <br /><br />I agree with you about Edith. I think the writer made her a little too nasty.<br /><br />Well, we have something to look forward to.Mary Simonsenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03400923132711871703noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8833418224175267236.post-63563957393865633482011-01-31T12:23:28.817-05:002011-01-31T12:23:28.817-05:00Dear Jenny:

I think that "optical historian" or optical consultant would be a perfect next stop for you! Blends your two areas of expertise perfectly ... have some business cards made up immediately and start sending them to producers at the BBC!<br />Love,<br />Big SisterBig Sisterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05296255365335823922noreply@blogger.com
