I've watched 2 episodes, but I'm disappointed. I bet Roberto is watching as his fave lady is in it.

Yes Annie, both Jean Marsh and Eileen Atkins thought of the original programmes.

Hello All,

I am enjoying Upstairs downstairs as well, can't decide who is better Eileen Atkins in Upstairs Downstairs or Maggie Smith in Downton Abbey, can anyone one have delivered that line from Downton Abbey "What is a weekend " any better than Maggies Smith.

Loved the way he "curled" his beard under during the day. On the whole, I think I preferred Downton Abbey.
