Keep your spoons off my trifle missy!
 
I'm Nipping over to the east end of London on Christmas night to help the nuns in call the midwife. As they're two different time eras I said I'll have to borrow the TARDIS for a bit of time travelling from dr who.
Trip down the east end sounds interesting .. Grandmother will love that .. And cousin jam she might like a part
@Sable_Jan hope the phone box is going to take us all ... Can't wait

@NicolaB70 we should perhaps ask the kitchen staff to make up some gifts , jars of jam , a custard tart , a few mince pies ..
Some pear drops , well you know the sort of thing .. We don't know who might like a gift and it will still be Christmas
 
According to last nights tv reviews it turned into a Quentin Tarantino blood bath last night. I hope the 'neath stairs staff got the table linen in cold salt water to get the blood stains out. Was it something in the soup upset his tum? Someone pass the sherry (for the shock)
 
Turned out to be a burst ulcer and he projectile vomited blood across the table. My husband said the same as others have that it was like the scene from alien with John hurt.
 

Oooh yes, it was shocking. Wondered why they kept saying "contains shocking scenes" and now I know. Wasn't expecting projectile vomiting of blood. Messy.

And is Lady Mary the only one who doesn't know about Marigold? That's going to put her aristocratic nose out of joint (not that it takes much) ..lol.
 
I think Mary is the only one who doesn't know about Marigold. If I remember rightly, I don't think that Edith knows that her parents know either, if that makes sense!

Maybe that's how it will end!! His lordship is abducted by aliens who inhabit his body but the aliens don't like the way the toffs treat their staff so they all get vapourised by a death ray
 
Here grannie have a little sherry , and your discussion with Nev !
Well I will say no more ..
 
Very good m'lady forever grateful
You are always such a polite and thoughtful member of staff @Cumberland .. Do take a couple of days off.. I won't need the car I am staying in town near the hospital untill next Sunday ! And besides we can make do with walking and fresh air for a few days ..

Well I thought there were no secrets between us @NicolaB70 I know about marigold ..
I have no more to say on the subject I am going to read my papers
 
Shocking ! It was a surprize .. I think the father of lady Mary is bates ! And please can he stop having such high standards lol
It will all end in tears .. Bates and lady Mary is my bet !!! Father and daughter .. Right back to work all ... It's just a theory .. Not bates I mean Carson !!!!! The butler ..

It was very dramatic !
Never seen that much blood on casualty ..
 
Oooo Nooo lol lol now we are staring in ET !!!! Don't tell @jay hay-char this news .. Whatever you do


Just tittle-tattle, you mark my words.

I have it on good authority that the Downton production company has a full size model of the Hindenburg on order and the Director is busy practising lobbing matches at a large, lozenge shaped object
