tree_and_leaf: Alan Rickman in role of Slope, wearing rochet, scarf, swept back hair, and hostile but smug expression (slope)
Article about Downton Abbey, from the Grauniad. I invariably find Tanya Gold slightly irritating* (and how she found the miscarriage scene funny beats me, though I suspect it's sloppy writing/ editing - there's another paragraph towards the end that doesn't seem to make sense), but there's some interesting snippets with Julian Fellowes, Hugh Bonneville, and others from the cast, as well as the Caernarvons, and Alastair Bruce, the historical adviser, who is "still getting over Braveheart.


* I find her irritating here despite the fact that I'd agree that Downton is at times a very sanitised portrait of the 'big house.'
