Just realised it's on Drama every week day at 2. On series 2 at the moment, but all the episodes so far are on UK TV Play. Always loved it.

thanks for this!

I loved this back in the day, one of the few adults shows I was allowed to watch.

BrennieGirl · 09/08/2023 17:03

I'm watching. It's very hammy! Oh Jack....

Have you seen the French and Saunders HoE skit? It's hilarious.

Housewife2010 · 09/08/2023 18:54

I still think it's wonderful. Both my top two favourite programmes on at 2 today - Upstairs Downstairs on Talking Pictures.

I really enjoyed it, back in the day, will have to take a look.

It was the end of one of my favourite House of Eliot stories today - when Evie has the affair with the older married politician.
Think I'll banish my son from the x box tonight and start from the beginning

"House of Idiot" That's the first thing I thought of when I saw this was on 😁

The collection!

Loved watching that with my Mum. But French & Saunders ruined it brilliantly.

Housewife2010 · 09/08/2023 19:19

I had The House of Eliot soundtrack CD - I probably still have it.

Loved it! Is there a way of watching this channel without a proper tv? (Just using the internet?)

I still think it's wonderful. Both my top two favourite programmes on at 2 today - Upstairs Downstairs on Talking Pictures.

They were created by the same women Jean Marsh and Dame Eileen Atkins.

I used to meet Stella Gonet through work many moons ago, she was really lovely.

Sadly French and Saunders ruined it for me ,they were so fantastic 😂

megletthesecond · 09/08/2023 22:49

The French & Saunders sketch was so good.

Shiftingparadigm · 09/08/2023 22:57

I loved it years ago. Was just a kid. I wonder if they will remake it as I think it would very popular.

sofasofa42 · 10/08/2023 01:08

My mum and my sisters would watch this!! I think I did catch an episode a year ago and laughed at how it was even more wet than Downton, but I do remember thinking I would go and master drawing butterflies and then become a fashion designer. I think I even used to walk around with a sketch pad... cringe. I was probably 10 .

BessMarvin · 14/08/2023 16:15

I watched this when it was on originally and then watched it all again a few years ago. I hadn't remembered it just ended suddenly on a cliff hanger which was really disappointing.

Then I got the book which I thought might clear it up but no, it wasn't even the same story lines particularly.

Guiltypleasures001 · 15/08/2023 16:46

Thanks for the heads up on this
We are currently enjoying it this end

RitzyMcFitzy · 15/08/2023 17:06

Oh I loved The House of Elliot!

The drama when a jealous rival fashion house would steal their designs for Lady Fenella Smythington-Poffington’s wedding trousseau.

'Oh Bea!' and 'We're ruined, Evie' they'd gravely exclaim.

Everything was oh so serious and not one single laugh was ever had Grin

Would love to re-watch it.

Localher0 · 15/08/2023 17:16

Oh God This threads has made me realise I'm subconsciously recreating Stella Gonet's hairstyle as I grown out my pixie crop......I loved this series when I was younger.

LyndaSnellsSniff · 20/08/2023 19:09

I LOVE The House of Eliott!! I've got the box set and watch it every year!

Drama had edited the episodes quite heavily I've noticed.

I follow Louise Lombard on Instagram and from a couple of comments she's made, I think she'd be up for a reboot.
