Downton reaches new heights-or is that lows. - 02/11/2015 11:49
The better half was getting her weekly fix of Downton last night and stupidly happened to be in the sitting room at the time.
Some stiff collared gentleman racers were allegedly racing at Brooklands so I looked up at the telly only to find that Lord March had kindly lent them Goodwood track for the day and they had dressed it up with 'period' trim. Then there was the inevitable fatal crash, a dash to the side of the course by the landed gentry, which turned out to be a tidied up section of Brooklands banking (underneath Test Hill?) and then back to Goodwood for more brow beating and sniffles! That fellow Fellowes really does takes the biscuit for implausibility!
She who must be obeyed tells me that the last (ever) episode is next week. Naturally I shall be distraught!
