Now we are up to date. Ken and I have watched the whole series three of Downton Abbey. Irene and Dave brought us the third series, but it took us awhile to sit down and stay still. We watched the first episode in Mississippi with the girls but they were not so entranced this time around. Perhaps the series one and two was better, or perhaps at the farm when we watched every evening after dinner, the distractions were limited for Kate and Mary Frances. But here in Nova Scotia, the peace and quiet allows time to focus, so we watched every episode.
This third season of the series seems not as interesting. Or perhaps the flaws of the principles became irritating. It will be interesting to see how the next few seasons works out with the ratings, which have declined each year. Ken and I enjoyed series three. It was just not as much fun as the first and second year, probably because we were not watching year three with the girls. Having young, enthusiastic young ladies by our side makes everything seem like more fun!!
I read the story of the real castle and I must say, that the truth was more interesting than the fiction of Downton Abbey. Certainly worth reading.
