Downton Abbey

[harrietthespook]

Ladies....as we were?

IIRC, no it wasn't 'bad enough' and also a bit out of character.

Georgi: unlikely, it's very much in the public domain.

Apparently Julian Fellowes is on Question Time tomorrow. Who's up for a MN flashmob posing difficult questions about space, time, reality and shoehorns?

at Matthew announcing his erection at the dinner table!

Or maybe it will just appear....peeping up above the table.
That should get Violet choking on her soup

nah - she will think he is just offering her a rather small finger roll... or-a large one if Mary/Lavinia is lucky

I suspect Carson would just discreetly cover it with a napkin and return to the back of the room

My MIL is a retired physio. She advised her students that in the event of a patient becoming excited due to their manipulations a sharp blow would save everyone's blushes.

Lawks!
Is Lord Fatty gonna give that new maid one in the linen press?!
LAWKS A MERCY!

mrsz apparently so, but none of us can see it, it just doesnt sit right. i mean the actress is a pretty sort but not the type to immediately turn the head of Lord 6, especially when he has Cora of Botox fame...

I know! Cora has ONE expression bless her!
I can't see Lord Fatty Bumbum having his way with her lest twas from behind by surprise over a spinning jenny.

what's a spinning jenny?
Whost durst I be channelling?

I seriously love this thread. and thinking about Downton obsessively is not harmful.

There must be mopre to Lavvie...what do we know?

• she was gripped by the arm by a cross sir R in the shrubbery, overseen by goat-eyed moneypenny

• When pressed by our very own Lady Mary, she admitted she'd passed some papers of naughty MPs to Sir R

• so wtf was Sir R cross about?

ergo, whenceforth et al THERE Is More To The Tale....

*unless I missed a bit

also, I think Lord 6 will just be lovingly touching Jane's hair in the library when cora/sybil/edith wanders in, observes and is swoonfully horrified.

that'll be it, jane and her 'grammar school' son will be outta there.

and Lord 6 will secretly sponser the boy from afar, a mysterioous benefactor who never had a son of his own.

just dropped tomato sauce into the cracks in my mouse's buttons

Ooh this is fun and there was me feeling inferior (downstairs) cos I watched this whilst we have 6 episodes of the far loftier spooks recorded and ready.......
Adverts are an insult tho', did anyone see the juxtaposition of the earwax removal ad with the orange juice ad-YUK!

We saw warhorse a couple of years ago, after I'd read the book to my sons, I had to make them promise I wouldn't cry 6 times like when I read the book and I held out until a brief sniff at the end. Morpurgo is a god worth a million fellowes

pyschicsatsuma took me ages to work your post out. read it as the crack in your mouse's bottom! poor wee thing!

ooh updates galore goody!!

H...didn't hear anything about it at the time (glazed over at ANOTHER superinj....as most were footballers zzzzzzz)
but funnily enough it was a JANE who I heard it from.

Georgi I agree I'd hate tattle to delete the thread so out of respect for the collective cardiac responses at MNHQ I'll tell anyone who cares to know behind the Servants hall shut up!

Pot39 I agree the blardy adverts are a PITA & also that Morpurgo is fab.
I wept unashamedly at WH as did the nice lady to my left & we both agreed how stupid we were to be crying over a puppet of leather & cane!!

demonicma - - my pooter mouse

omg at that you thought i was tomato-inseminating a real mouse

well how do I know what you get up to in your spare time??

bossybritches

dusts down evening uniform

Well I've got my button box!!!

Just caught up with Sundays episode.

By the preview of next weeks it looks like Lord Grantham is getting close to one of the maids
