Thank you, Mr. moose,
After having binge watched “Downton Abbey,” I’m thrilled to have a new escape!
I just read an interesting book about the Earl and Countess of Carnarvon, whose family home was used in filming “Downton Abbey.” The Earl was the co-discoverer of King Tut’s tomb, and the Countess was the illegitimate daughter of Alfred de Rothschild.
There were some elements of the Carnarvons’ lives used in the show.
“Downton Abbey” is a special sort of saga, don’t you think? A little like “Roots,” but with white folks. (Oh, golly! Who said that??)
“Midsomer Murders” was on every Monday morning, in Henderson, so I watched it while I was sorting clothes. I guess I’ll have to rent at the library. Otherwise, I’ll never get my fix.
