Downton Abbey
How great is Downton Abbey?!
I know, I'm a bit slow, a bit behind the times! I didn't see it when it was on last year because STV didn't show it and I forgot to watch the first episode on catch up, so decided to wait until it came out on DVD. I'm so glad I did!
I was hooked from the first opening credits - all those servants running about! I watched the first DVD at one sitting last night- not sure how many episodes that was, three I think. Going to watch second DVD tonight with a glass or two of Merlot - heaven!!
We discovered an old servants' bell in our house when we moved in! I wrote a post about it - check it out! Not quite as large as the one at Downton, but still a reminder of past times. Glad it doesn't work!
Love, Liz

I remember your post on the servant's bell and thinking how fascinating it was to have something so authentic in your own home :-)

I enjoyed Downton Abbey, too.
I like the servant's bell that you have.

What a fab bell - I'd love something like that so I could summon my menfolk to meals!
I've heard alot about Downtown Abbey, but haven't seen it yet. I think it's time to rent it : )
PS love the servants bell. I've never seen one before.
