Thanks. That one shows. ;D
Actually, I've already done a Google Images search for him. I just haven't downloaded any pics yet. ;D
There are some lovely photos of him in a bathtub floating around on the Internet. ;D
ETA: Perhaps for some bizarre computer-related reason you have to be on line for me to see that second pic. I can see it now, while you are on the site.

I am not sure where Australia is up to at the moment. I cannot say too much but the Christmas special has really ruined it all for me, it has turned into a soap.

There's just two hours left which, as it was shown on Christmas Day in England, was known there as the "Christmas Special". Most of it takes place on the family's summer visit to Scotland before returning to Downton for a truly shocking conclusion.

"Downton Abbey" shocker: Another key character departs
By Tim Kenneally | Reuters – 15 hrs ago
LOS ANGELES (TheWrap) - Sarah O'Brien has left the Abbey. Siobahn Finneran, who's played conniving maid O'Brien throughout "Downton Abbey's" three-season run, won't be returning for the upcoming fourth season of the British hit.
Finneran told the Press Association that she's done with the character.
"I'm not doing any more," Finneran, who'll be appearing in the second season of the BBC1 offering "The Syndicate" -- said. "O'Brien is a thoroughly despicable human being -- that was great to play."
The news will no doubt shake "Downton" fans, who have already had to contend with the shocking deaths of two key characters in recent months.
Matthew Crawley was knocked off in the "Downton Abbey" Christmas special, leading to the departure of cast member Dan Stevens.
That death was followed (correction by Mandy -- should be preceded) by the demise of Lady Sybil Branson, played by Jessica Brown Findlay. In an episode airing in the U.S. in January, Branson died after giving birth.
While the show's faithful might have been disappointed by the deaths, they appear to have remained faithful to the show: Its February Season 3 finale on PBS, which airs the show in the U.S., drew a jaw-dropping 8.2 million total viewers, easily besting the viewership for the Season 2 finale.
A spokeswoman for PBS member station WGBH said that the door is open for the O'Brien character to return in the future.
