Downton Abbey
Sep. 30th, 2019 09:00 amAs a reward for finishing the first draft of Honeytrap (about which more tomorrow!), I went to see the new Downton Abbey movie, which was DELIGHTFUL, A+++ would enjoy again.
I’m not convinced that it would be possible to follow the movie if you hadn’t seen any of the show, but on the other hand if you haven’t seen any of the show at this point in time, it’s probably just not your thing at all and you wouldn’t want to see the movie anyway. I only watched the first two and a half seasons - I quit midway through season 3 when I realized they were about to kill my favorite character - but I had no trouble following it, although of course there were moments when I was all “So Mary is married to whom now?”
( Spoilers )
Now I really want to rewatch the first season of Downton Abbey, but NO, SELF, I’ve already seen it probably five times (I just had to keep introducing people to it, and also people wanted to introduce me to it, and of course I was already aware of it but willing to rewatch it all over again), and it will probably just lead to more Sybil fic.
