MISTAKE, MISTAKE, MISTAKE!! I am not so sure I want to continue watching this show. The death of Mathew is a real downer as he was such an integral part of the show; genuine/romantic/sweet/a common sense kind of gentleman. Give him a raise! Bring him back or you will lose viewers!!

Jere Is brandon coyle gay? He doesn't know how to kiss a woman, for sure! But a great actor. Jere12:45am Sun 24 Feb

The best show ever! When Merlin and Leonardo isn't on, this is the next best thing! Hey there guys!5:33pm Sat 12 Jan
Downton abbey A big mistake to take Matthew Crawley out of the production. The five characters that make this show are Mr and Mrs Crawley, Matthew and Mary and the grandmother. I will not be watching this anymore. Emmy4:31pm Wed 9 Jan

WONDERFUL A breathtaking drama. Dame Maggie Smith is pure genius and the remainder of the cast are wonderful. Magical writing. What a treat. Thank you. xxxx Betty6:10pm Sun 30 Sep
At last, something worth watching. Watched it last night even though I had to be up early & even though I had it on record. just couldn't wait. Best thing on the box at the moment bar none!! blubbagee5:21pm Mon 17 Sep
Brilliant Saw the first episode last night. Absolutely brilliant. The addition of Shirley McLaine to the cast completes the perfect drama. The only downsaide is all the ad breaks.
Record each episode and start watching the recording about 20 minutes into the transmission. This way you can whizz through the ads and enjoy the programme even more. Sad Sarah11:30am Mon 17 Sep
Dallas, Dynasty and Downton I don't think the British make soap operas as well as Americans. Downton recyles the age old plots we've already seen on Dallas and Dynasty. Ulysses4:15am Wed 18 Jul
Very good Good good, love the show! Have been expecting the series 3! Can't wait :) SherrinaC8:19am Sun 10 Jun

great plot I am enjoying the series and looking forward to season 3. If there are mistakes, i wouldn't know or care for that matter. Maggie Smith is fantastic as always, Smiley5:33pm Sun 29 Apr
Sir Richard & Lovinia Could someone tell me why Sir Richard was threatening Lovinia and what his motive was to bring her to the scene where she was introduced to Mary ?? Pauln1:35pm Fri 2 Mar
Downton I see some stereo - typical sides of downton, but compared to the other crap on, this series is quite interesting. The plots and story-lines keep every pair of eyes glued to the screen. A few "out of time" mistakes, but ohterwise, an amusing and addictive series. I would reccommmend it at least xx Smart Midget5:59pm Tue 3 Jan
Mrs Bates Murder theory O'Brien was aware that Mrs. Bates knew of the dreaded secret and that she planned to divulge it to the public, although I don't think she knew that Sir Richard Carlisle had put a gag on her. O'Brien had changed her attitude towards Lady Cora after the flu epidemic and had become quite protective. Thus, I suspect O'Brien decided it was necessary to silence Mrs. Bates to protect the family. Further, I predict that O'Brien will confess, possibly to Lady Cora, out of guilt for Mr. Bates taking the wrap, sometime in the third series. MrInvert3:40pm Mon 2 Jan

Love it!! I love this show so much!! Cant wait for Series 3! Bit over dramatic in parts though! :)8:55pm Fri 2 Dec
Best TV of 2011 Once again, Britain's penchant for all things period drama is reflected in our Top TV. Viewers are still tuning in droves to catch the latest scandal and drama at Downton, despite the show being in its second series. TVGuide1:51pm Wed 30 Nov
Great Period Drama Those who don't enjoy this drama need to go take a hike! A programme is never going to fulfil everyone's taste's so if you don't like period dramas don't watch it. I for one love the series. Yes there are some inaccuracies and some of the acting is not the best but on the whole I love the storyline, the romance, the problems and some of the acting is good! So I for one can't wait for series 3. Well done ITV! Riri5:29pm Sat 19 Nov
wonderful drama when is the xmas special and when is series 3. love it, lady downton.4:57pm Sat 12 Nov
fantastic show although they do make some misstakes, which bring it down a bit, and well, the acting could be better, as could the casting, the timing is well out as well, oh look, its crap. gay days7:37pm Fri 11 Nov

Eastenders in frocks... This show is the worst. The men in the family leave the house every time it's on, please get rid of it. Yours sincerely, Men of Britain. MrEngland9:28pm Wed 9 Nov
Army hospital bed counterpanes When the abbey was transformed into a hospital for the war injured,I noticed that the blue and white patterned counterpanes,used on the beds bore a striking resemblance to that of the ones us new entrants were issued with when we joined the Royal Navy in the 1960's.The following episode revealed a more detailed view of the counterpane and there in full view in the centre of the pattern was a large Royal Navy anchor.Did any other ex RN notice this in the episode. Did the production team aquire the counterpanes as a job lot from the MOD?. Davey B10:35am Wed 2 Nov
What a show! Downton Abbey is an absolutely amazing series! This is coming from a teenager's perspective, so I think it's great that the series appeals to people of all ages - I have a large number of friends who also watch the show, as well as older members of my family!
For those that critisise it, why??! The programme was created and aired to interest and appeal to those who want to watch it - if you don't like it, then don't watch it! Other people, such as myself, can also see the faults in it, but who cares??! The point is that it is superb piece of drama, and other than minor faults, a very convincing one too! I think it is right that the series receives the credit and appreciation that it does, and that those who critisise it should find something better to do with their time. DowntonFan9:28am Mon 31 Oct

Downton Abbey We used to have more like this, and dare I say better.
Upstairs Downstairs was a real classic, try to get into it you youngsters if you havenīt seen that .There is a niche for historical dramas.
If you donīt like it, donīt watch it but learn how to spell GREAT or you give your literacy level away!!! Nettykins7:31pm Sun 9 Oct

ELECTRIC APPEARANCE Am I mistaken or was the electric only in the main rooms of Downton, when was it put in the bedrooms or servant quarters or was this just added for the use of electric hair straightners this week? Confused!9:17pm Tue 4 Oct
