What’s new in Downtown abbey?? You may ask. Well it all new!!




 The 4th season has bring lot of change in the lives of our beloved characters, unless many of them were not from the party this time; Sybil of course, Mrs. Sarah O’Brien and what a loss for downtown after Matthew died! I really miss him and nothing is the same after he left the series. And by the way I have to comment his so ridiculous death, I think that Julian Fellows was not very inspired when he wrote the departure of Matthew from the series. I really think that it missed originality.
 However, his death was a real shock for the audience as well as the crawly family; Mary spends very hard time trying to forget him and to carry on her life, and his mother Isobel did not really recover unless she keep living.


But at the same time I find this 4th season very exciting, it was mostly full of romance which was missing in the 3rd one. Mary & Blake & Gillingham, Rose & Jack Branson & Bunting, Isobel & Lord Merton, Harold & Madeleine, Martha & Lord Aysgarth, Daisy & Ethan, Hughes & Carson as you see LOVE was from the party!!! I think that through all this romance, the season was interesting!


But our main concern is still the relation ‘Downstairs and Upstairs’ and I think that we are served in this side too, even though the Crawly are very kind.
But as Thomas has Sayed in one episode, when he was talking to Jimmy He told him that Mr. Crawly is very friendly and Thomas answered: “yes, but we still call him SIR” I find these situation very funny and so true.


But we can notice in some episodes that the differences are and still present in Downtown, like the episodes in which Mr and Mrs. Bates are not allowed to enter at the restaurant because they are servants until Mrs. Crawly came in and order the waiter to let them enter. This example is more related to the differences in society. Like in another episode, there was a party at the house and the servants were far behind and the aristocracy in front of the singer.

  1. I like your enthusiasm for this season, but your comments remain very superficial and there is almost no advance on the treatment of your theme of social classes
