It wasn't very nice of him to try to cause mischief between his daughter and her husband, especially when Mary was already upset about losing her sister.

Bring on more Downton talk.:)
I was trying to reply to Bobby'sgirl (I feel I should sing that:D!).
Aw, Sunday will be a happy day for Bates and Anna fans. I'm looking forward to seeing them reunited. I think many of us feel we've served his time for him.....
TV Times has an interview and a lovely pic of them at the cricket match in ep8. It's very similar to this one:

In the beginning, I found Bates more interesting than he is now, but I think part of the problem is that he's become as much of a drip as 'Mary Sue' Anna. I'd be happy for little Miss Sunshine and her gloomy 'Mistah Bates' to move on to pastures new. Her prim routine is about as appealing as his 'gone to seed' Mr Rochester.
Oooh I hope more comes out soon about the series finale and where is the extended trailer for next week itv?!!
There's a short preview and cast list here

It's meant to explosive..... maybe it's the toaster!:D
Looks aren't everything. Unfortunately, I hate his personality too. He's pretty much put her through Hell, when you think about it.
There is already an episode description out for 3.08, but I doubt it tells us any of the good stuff. Or bad stuff.
If I remember it correctly, Lady Flintshire's maid found out about Pamuk and told both Lady Flintshire and Vera. Well, in the Christmas ep, the family visit the Flintshires. Is that when it all comes out? Almost everyone in the family knows now anyway so presumably the only scandal is it's published in the papers?
This is the first time I've ever been part of a Part 2 thread
There's a different doctor in the CS so I wonder if Mary finds out she's pregnant. That's exactly what I expect.
Didn't you say Rose would try to seduce Matthew?
The Christmas special includes a visit to the Flintshires' home (filmed in Scotland) and to Thirsk Fair so there will be Yorkshire scenes.
As far as I can remember the only people who really matter who don;t know about Pamuk are Carson and Isobel but it's hardly the end of the world if they find out. I think it has to be public disgrace, not private embarrassment, that matters.
I'm glad that it's being addressed though. After all the fuss it would have been mad if it disappeared entirely.
So what is her role, exactly? Is she jealous of Mary so she's going to expose her?
It just seems so far in the past to me now. I guess the public on the show would care but after all this time will we?
Lots of interesting supporting characters. Rosamund is back, as well as Mrs. Bryant (is she going to invite Ethel to move into her house so that she could be closer to Charlie)?? And Molesley's dad from the flower show in S1 going to make an appearance. I wonder for what.
And lots of interesting new characters. We all have heard about Lady Rose and
The Gregson's character seems to be interesting? Will he be similar to Sir Anthony? Or will he turn out to be a new Sir Richard? :eek:
There's also Dr.Clarkson, a second doctor, and a police inspector. Will this means someone else will kick the bucket and/or get arrested in this episode? We'll just have to wait and see
I think the doctor is for M/M and their fertility or baby SL. I hope it's not Edith digging into eclampsia research because frankly, I can't bear to hear any more about it. That was a cruel shock they imposed on us and the less I have to remember it the better. Otherwise I would be all too happy to see Robert miserable and despised by his family
Sadly I think you're right. He was rather yummy in Larkrise to Candleford.
He's 6 months younger than me but looks older. My husband is 51 this year but looks younger than Brendan Coyle now.
Having said that I do still have a bit of a soft spot for Brendan Coyle - I've not gone off him completely
Yes, I couldn't believe how old Brendan Coyle was - he's the samage as me ex husband but I thought he was mid 50s. Mind you, same with Hugh Bonneville, he looks way older than his age!
I think there's only about a month between them.
And they could both easily be 55!
My daughter sent me the above. [There are a couple of rude bits so it's for adults and be warned if you are easily offended.;)]
Enjoy!

That's so funny.Really made me laugh!:D His impressions of are spot on!:D Branson was hilarious! 'I'm not respected around this table because my name isn't Crawley!' So true!!!
He's marvellous, isn't he? Graham Norton needs to get him on his show. Talented and funny man.
Excellent stuff
