#got there eventually

Me: I wish I could remember what drug other fan fix writers have said Tim’s parents gave him before galas. Guess I’ll just make it so that baby Tim doesn’t know what it’s called yet. That’s annoying and I hope I remember soon

Y'all Slorbo has a sister:

Yes loving that view!

Though tbh its not in Manhattan or anything so places there would be wayyy more than towards Jersey I would’ve thought. So don’t think it would be too crazily priced. But what do I know.

It is a great view though looks like she’s snagged herself a very nice spot.

Polygods - pt 4/6

7.5/10

I was a fan of the series up until about series 4 then gave up as I found the storylines dull and repetitive but in my quest to watch Matthew's filmography I tried again. I said I would watch and review and and I got there eventually.

Each series follows the tumultuous lives of the wealthy Crawley family and their serving staff in the early 20th century. Moorland Holiday and Series 6 covers a wide variety of storylines including marriages, deaths, awkward family introductions, births, new business ventures and the most dramatic burst ulcer ever put on film.

Matthew plays Henry Talbot, a racing driver and sort of aristocrat who uses his Goode charm and wit to woo the notorious Lady Mary. He manages to help her move on and they have great chemistry. He features in the series 5 special, a few episodes of series 6 and the finale.

I like how they adapt to the changing world and there are many very likable characters. Downton is worth watching for the fantastic Dowager Countess played by Maggie Smith. Additionally Michelle Dockery has done a great job portraying the diabolical but vulnerable Lady Mary.

Unfortunately I found it difficult to just jump in even with the previous knowledge and I didn't have this problem with shows like The Good Wife. Also I found Mary and Henry's romance very rushed and a little uncomfortable at times. Plus it felt like they were running out of plots as times so we're inventing weird ones.

I'd recommend Downton, particularly the specials as they were done well, but you may need a guide to the series. Perfect Sunday night TV though
