Thank you very much.
Is this anything like or a continuation of Downtown Abby?
It was a real disappointment. IMHO: poorly done, almost incoherent. The three episodes seemed to revolve around Oswald Mosley and the British Fascists and, who would have imagined, Joaquim von Ribbentrop. Cecil Beaton was dragged in long enough to take a picture of the cook.
Last year I watched the old Upstairs, Downstairs. I strongly looked forward to the new series but unfortunately it doesn’t hold a candle to the original.
There is however a compromise that works out quite well.
