I still need to talk about it.

ScatterChristmasCheer · 12/12/2011 20:35

They all sound a bit clumsy don't they?!

I'm dithering on the PM, I don't want to know what happens, but I'd love to hear about the do. Could you perhaps PM me after Christmas please? Or before and I just won't open it.

PsychicSatsumaInYourStocking · 12/12/2011 20:38

ooooh PM me too, then I can decide what to see.... Xmas Grin

limitedperiodonly · 12/12/2011 22:46

Okay. Will leave in time for lunch and will totter back probably around 5 or 6pm. Can't give a precise time for a report because I might be busy with other work hopelessly pissed.

However, I am a seasoned professional and can cope with telly, chit chat, nibbles, alcohol and cabs so will remember it.

You're weird for wanting to know. I hate spoilers. I don't even read the production notes before screenings.

LadyHarrietDeSpook · 13/12/2011 00:29

I would like to know. I have an excuse - I'm going to be in the US on the day and it will be discussed all over Mumsnet anyway. If I had a credible way to access the show whilst over there I would probably avoid spoilers...but will be 'spoiled' anyway. And knowing what happens hasn't stopped me from watching the shows again...

LadyHarrietDeSpook · 13/12/2011 22:43

LImited - is there a SUPERINJUNCTION on Downton spoilers?!

AKMD · 14/12/2011 10:01

Oh yes please to PM. I love spoilers and want to know whether it's worth kicking everyone out of my house for 9pm.

limitedperiodonly · 14/12/2011 11:23

Dammit! Had to sign a confidentiality agreement. Paranoid they will somehow track me down and ban me forever more. Probably unlikely but I'm a worrier.

Feel really bad for getting your hopes up.

ScatterChristmasCheer · 14/12/2011 12:18

Are you allowed to tell us about the do, or are you gagged about the whole thing?

I wouldn't mind hearing what people were wearing, what nibbles and drinks you had etc. if that's allowed.

Bossybritches22 · 14/12/2011 16:00

Xmas Hmm Wonder if someone on the do management team follows this thread????

Limited don't worry,nice thought but not worth risking your job m'dear, but as Scatter said any crumbs....??

After all the paps would have been all over it I guess?

LadyHarrietDeSpook · 14/12/2011 16:46

Yep. Saw the 'ban' was put out and figured.

Plus - we don't want our 17 page so far baby to get deleted...love the Downton threads. I would have thought you could gossip about the party though...Grin

limitedperiodonly · 14/12/2011 19:22

I think I am brave enough to reveal snippets about the party (just) but I'm cooking the dinner now so is tomorrow okay for the secrets of Bates's socks and Dan Stevens's unwise flirtation with hair lightening products?

Bossybritches22 · 15/12/2011 22:03

oh-ho yes indeed Limited thanks I'll bring the Wine

LadyHarrietDeSpook · 19/12/2011 10:51

I thought this thread had been pulled, had slipped way down.

Forget about spoilers at this point, can someone tell me how to watch the show from the US (PM).Please. xxx

Limited...hair gossip?

Bossybritches22 · 19/12/2011 20:17

You might be able to get ITV player but I think only some areas can get it online. Xmas Sad

The new trailer is interesting, looks like Mary Tells Mathew Everything..... Xmas Shock

Longtime · 19/12/2011 22:19

Bossybritches22 · 19/12/2011 23:03

Well done Longtime whatever you did!! Xmas Wink

LadyH will you be able to get on to the pooter for any DA fun over the holiday?

LadyHarrietDeSpook · 20/12/2011 09:44

Thanking Longtime publicly for her assistance.

I will get 'pooter time whilst in the US. Leaving Thurs. Is anyone going to be allowed to update the thread during the show? Anyway, I hope so, I'll be there with a Wine following.
