[turnitup]

Im so ready for a good period drama,

can't wait

Oooh yes, can't wait, and its on for 1 1/2 hours tonight. yippee!

ooh what time?

have seen first two eps... it is LUSHARAMA.

Yes, I'm excited. It feels like autumn now with a period drama on teh TV.

maggie smith is faaaaaaaabulous in it. first ep is excellent, second ep is out of sight.

9pm ITV

Aitch - how have you managed to see it already?

really looking forward to this.

Pizza, bottle of plonk, Ben and Jerry's and other half banished to the bedroom with the portable. Bliss

Maggie is a legend but I also really like Joanne Froggat, so looking forward to seeing too.

and liam connor from corrie... oh yes. cast is great, totally. my job means i get early access, i have ep3 on the computere here, might just watch it tonight to maintain my lead.

Oh your so lucky Aitch

Does anyone know if it will be shown on STV at some point?
I can't believe STV is showing Billy Connelly in the Arctic instead, gah.

If you've got Sky you can get ITV London. Can't remember which Channel but it's pages and pages down in the TV guide.

Channel 993, woohoo! Thanks Calticlassie.

Am so looking forward to this.

Oh yes dd1 and I are really looking forward to this. Love the song that's played when it is being advertised - is that the theme tune I wonder?

I am sadly excited, I love period dramas

Polgara2- I love the song on the advert too.

Oh yes, really looking forward to it - love the picture of Maggie Smith looking down her nose with a face that looks like she's had a lemon too many.

Finding myself watching old episodes of Upstairs, Downstairs on sky.

The good old days!!!

Want to watch it but with my XF fetish I will be glued to ITV1 for hours. If I do the ironing though, that will make it OK.

I love these kind of programmes on a sunday night, I call them Comfy-slippers tv. Nice bath before it starts, jammies on, curtains drawn, glass of red wine - looooovely!! And Maggie Smith is always great.

yes!!!!

I really want to watch it but know I will fall asleep half way through. Why don't these things start at 8pm for sad people like me

I'm watching, this is right up my street.
