They've just showed the first episode, second ones in an hour! Of course they're showing it at the same time as another drama's starting up on another channel - good job I can record it, but I'll probably have to miss one episode due to being away :(

First episode very good, I'd like to kick the ladies maid who kicks Bates' leg from under him when the Duke arrives!

Almost missed the last episode of the first series! Silly tv company changed the time of the repeat (something else on at the same time, which we're not always home to see), luckily they repeated it again.

Looking forward to seeing the second series - you lucky lot are getting it in the autumn, hopefully we wont have to wait too long!!
