    "The fact of the matter is that the really posh people are pleased to see something on television that isn't about a dead prostitute in a dustbin, and they seem to just be enjoying the programme."

    http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/t...ton-Abbey.html

    I agree with that bit wholeheartedly. I'm always moaning about 'another dead prostitute on a slab' myself!

    I don't claim to be 'really posh', but then I wouldn't.

    Evening all - just about to crack out the wine, crackers, cheese and chutney! Well one needs to have a sense of occasion for a Sunday, doesn't one?

    Evening all, always a couple of mins late for the weekly get together, what with running from the X-Factor thread to here. Gutted that John has gone :(

    Nope, he shouldn't have been bottom 2 at all :mad:

    Stealing wine is nothing compared that nasty piece gets up to!
    O'Brien up to no good again.

    Oh dear voices of the WI, putting that old bird in the ad wasn't a wise thing to do.

    I love Matt. Or as I, being incredibly witty and talented, call him, Hat. Taken me all week to think up that one. :D
    I love Aiden more though. I love Rebecca also. She has a great voice.:D:D

    Mrs Patmore would surely not have looked as scruffy in the grand household as that?
