I still need to talk about it.

wow, great outakes ,& yes I agree some of them should have been left in as they explain a lot, Peter/Patricks departure for example.

and shedding light on Sir R and Mary's relationship; not sure whether cora will ever feel able to really tell Lord Fatty B about Pamuk though. MAYBE strangely she thinks it would rush Lord Fatty into making them marry immediately? They're all so ambivalent about him Cora wants it and then she really doesn't. But it would have been good to have a bit more detail.

Also, while I came to like the new and improved Mary, I do think her edginess was erased too thoroughly to be credible. The Lavinia scene should def have been kept.

Aaw - no Downton to look forward to tonight. I feel empty. Sad

Bossybritches22 · 13/11/2011 17:38

Ladies (an assumption here) I have only just, today, been introduced to life at the Abbey...I am, suitably, in love Blush

I have seen episodes 1-7 (DVD) ...can anyone tell me what follows this and can I see them on iplayer? I have severe withdrawal symptoms,please help Thanks

Georgimama · 13/11/2011 20:38

series 2 is out on DVD as well. Some may still be on tivplayer but the beginning of series 2 has probably dropped off by now.

WillIEverBeASizeTen · 13/11/2011 21:12

Thanks georgi

The deleted scenes were fab, so why were they axed? Especially loved the one with Lavinia & Mary.

ThePsychicSatsuma · 13/11/2011 21:50

YY deleted scenes fab - explained Lavvie had a backbone!

Have just watched the last two eps. I love Bransyb more than ever.

Some of the story lines were ridiculous but I did love it so.

Animation · 14/11/2011 08:45

"I love Bransyb more than ever."

Yeah - they're two tough cookies!!

MarthasHarbour · 14/11/2011 09:21

i was soooo bereft last night Sad i satisfied my 'fix' with the outtakes. Grin

Animation · 14/11/2011 09:46

Grin Martha.

The outtakes kept me going too ... only just. Sad

LadyHarrietDeSpook · 14/11/2011 09:57

Box set of series two has arrived.

Lavvie's backbone in that scene - not sure, was pathetic the way she immediately begged Mary's forgiveness. Mary looked sooo snakeish in that scene, quite scary. "Well, we won't forget it."

LeBOF · 14/11/2011 10:10

The video won't play for me- what happens? Sad

ImDreamingOfACheapXmas · 14/11/2011 10:23

My mum things Sir R did away with Vera, as he went to London on the same train as Bates, but came back in the car with Lav later on. Alibi???

ImDreamingOfACheapXmas · 14/11/2011 10:23

*thinks, not things.

Georgimama · 14/11/2011 10:29

I also think Sir R killed Vera. I did as soon as she died. I have high hopes this will be discovered in time to prevent Mary from marrying him (actually he'd get strung up back then wouldn't he, so she would be freeeeee eventually).

Oblomov · 14/11/2011 10:51

Am sad DA has finished. but it was getting weaker and weaker, each week. Am still loving Broadwalk Empire, which is getting stronger and stronger each week.
Loved Garrow's Law before. Dh and I can't wait for this series. have Sky+ it and now just can't wait to get my teeth into it.

moogdroog · 14/11/2011 10:52

I didn't realise it had finished. Got myself all psyched up for a Sunday night Downton fix and it was nowhere to be found. Garrow's Law just didn't cut it. Sad

LadyHarrietDeSpook · 14/11/2011 11:08

I think Sir R probably had Vera killed too. He won't swing for it though - too rich and powerful, would get it pinned on someone else. Hmmm...Bates-y.

diddl · 14/11/2011 12:00

Why would Sir R have Vera killed, though?
