The costume drama series, Downton Abbey, written and created by Oscar-winning writer Julian Fellowes, stars Academy Award-winner Maggie Smith as a Dowager Countess of an Edwardian English country house in 1912.

The all-star cast also includes Hugh Bonneville and Elizabeth McGovern.

She would deny it, but she wanted at least one dance, and he happened to be an available young gentleman. How could she get him on the dance floor without asking for the dance? Why! put him in a place where he would need to challenge her and her assertions about him! And he will think it was all his own idea! 😁

Same. My husband is an OTR trucker and the first time he came home, he kept it a surprise. Everyone in the building said they heard me scream (in exuberance) when he came in the door. I tried to jump up onto him but hit my thigh on the door handle. It was a softball-sized hematoma that took months to fully go away but every limping step of it was 1000% worth it. I love this scene so much 😊

The people who had work in the "great houses" actually considered themselves fortunate. Their jobs had far more security and chances for advancement than many others. My own grandmother born in a workhouse looked fondly on her time in service. Of course it wasn't quite as lovely as Downton but let's be honest it is partially escapist fantasy 😊.
