It a decent series showing the lives of the upper and lower classes on the run up to WW1.
How they live, work and deal with dilemmas of the day.
Also, as this was the demise of the upper class, not being able to afford to run the big houses and the rise of the lower class with their equalities and opportunities.
Does go on a bit, but very good.
Maggie Smith, probably the best part of it.
Cheshire Cat
The most curious thing..
Upstairs Downstairs remake for the 2010s. Dull dull dull.

now put the entire cast in old costumes and there you go- 'must watch tv'

We avoided it for years and then one day decided to give it a try. We downloaded all the series and watched them over a few months.
Agree,Maggie Smith was superb but so were many of the main characters.
Give it a try !

Downtown Abbey. Isn't that Abigail Cruttenden's nickname?
Possibly starring Petula Clark?

Much ado about nothing but loved it
Blackadder
Brighton Bhuna Boy
We didn't start watching until the first World War had finished in the series. Thought it was worth watching (but there again I like anything historical).
