Bumping this for the new film, set to be released 20th September.

I had a bit of a surprise yesterday.

My father asked me if I'd ever watched Downton Abbey.

I said, No.

He said, "It was pretty good."

hehe! You dad liked Downton Abbey! That's very nice! I'm looking forward to the premiere of the movie!! Does anyone know if it starts up where the show left off?

I think not too much later.  It's supposed to be 1927.  The Dowager Countess must be 141 years old by now!

The film opens tomorrow!

The Dowager Countess is ageless. ...

I loved the film although, after about 3 or 4 years, I had forgotten a lot and had to come home and check on Wikipedia.
If a movie has Maggie Smith or Judi Dench in it , I almost have to see it. "Tea with the Dames" was marvellous for me.

I'm gong to a friend's 50th birthday party tonight, and she's a Downton Abbey fan, so I got her a book called "The Downton Abbey Film Companion"

I feel the same way, Brian, although "The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel", where Dench was paired with Bill Nighy, was a stretch for me. He's nearly 20 years younger than she!
