The BBC needs to be phased out and canceled.

I have not seen Downton Abbey. My wife saw one episode and found that it portrayed the modern mindset on far too much.

The BBC, socialist as it is, does a MUCH better job of presenting movie versions of Critish literary treasures, including teh works of Jane Austen and Charles Dickens, than Hollywood ever dreamed of doing.

Its actually quite good for a chick flick. One of the few things I can watch without throwing things at my TV.

the first episode contained a gay kiss scene that almost killed it right there for me. We did watch the next episode and found the gay theme (while still there) was toned down and the plot actually got pretty good. We are up to season 4 now and are enjoying it...

They never show them sitting down to eat, because then they would have to show them praying - and, goodness knows, we cannot have that!
