Maybe I ought to watch season 1 first? <br />I remember going to my first British wedding while living in London in 1987. I wore a feminine off-the-shoulder flowered dress with a full skirt thinking I'd fit right in with the pastoral setting. But all the English women came in smart two-piece suits with prim hats, and I felt very out of place. That weekend I ran to Harrod's and picked out a pink linen skirt and blazer, and late cream colored hat and gloves, and felt well prepared for the next wedding. Too bad that hats and gloves haven't retained the popularity in America that they have in England. Such fun accessories!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8502245000248725118.post-4740483475936787122012-01-06T04:57:29.951-08:002012-01-06T04:57:29.951-08:00Hi Sunday, I've marked my calendar for the fir...Hi Sunday, I've marked my calendar for the first episode of this season. I have to say this is one of the few things on television to get excited about. I love the photographs showing the beautiful people and elegant sets. The costumes are another reason to watch. Thanks for the reminder and bringing us up to speed. <br />Hope your holidays were wonderful and wishing you the best for the New Year!<br /><br />~Emily<br />The French HutchThe French Hutchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10028597144785773804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8502245000248725118.post-88406718402137010332012-01-05T09:20:58.573-08:002012-01-05T09:20:58.573-08:00So excited for Season 2 and THRILLED to hear about...So excited for Season 2 and THRILLED to hear about Season 3!!! and Margo...the answer is no. xoxoMegan Taylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00520307813991565047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8502245000248725118.post-38756066935532471122012-01-04T15:05:56.573-08:002012-01-04T15:05:56.573-08:00Does it get any better than Downton Abbey?Does it get any better than Downton Abbey?Margo Peckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13051928506720394399noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8502245000248725118.post-35153089340879796192012-01-04T09:30:00.064-08:002012-01-04T09:30:00.064-08:00Downton Abbey is sheer bliss and each episode has ...Downton Abbey is sheer bliss and each episode has me dreaming about a closet full of dresses just like the ones Lady Mary wears.

I simply cannot wait until Sunday night. The pictures you include here have helped to contain my anticipation. <br /><br />Thomas is reprehensible, isn't he? I think as he goes off war he will meet up with what he justly deserves. O'Brien's heart seemed to seep through just a bit, like the Grinch's, when she rushed to remove the bar soap. Too late, of course. I wonder how she will redeem herself. I wonder what the dowager Lady Grantham will conspire to see Lady Mary married off. <br /><br />I look forward to the next episodes - and to all that you bring here during your month of all things British.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8502245000248725118.post-49908788791076479122012-01-03T09:27:47.815-08:002012-01-03T09:27:47.815-08:00It is deliriously addictive, isn't it.
