One Last Trip to Downton Abbey
The TARDIS has landed in upstate New York safe and sound! She paused for just a moment and then Vorrrped off to 1925 Yorkshire to visit some old friends at Downton Abbey.
Cousin Isobel Crawley (Penelope Wilton) knew the 9th and 10th Doctors when she portrayed the Prime Minister of England, Harriet Jones.
Lord Robert Grantham (Hugh Bonneville) made the 11th Doctor walk the plank as pirate Henry Avery!
And that artsy Simon Bricker (Richard Grant) relentlessly hounded the 11th Doctor as Dr. Simeon, aka The Great Intelligence.
When the TARDIS returns to 2016, she'll be celebrating the last episode of Downton Abbey with some lovely Namring Estate second flush Darjeeling from Upton Tea Imports on Sunday evening. Are you planning a viewing party?

Glad the teapot arrived safely, Cheryl. What an interesting connection the teapot has with Downton Abbey! Very fun post. I do not have a viewing party planned for Sunday night, but that would be fun. I will be sorry to see the series end!
ReplyDeleteSips and Smiles,
We are planning a small viewing party for Sunday night! However - we'd planned a viewing party for the first episode of Season 6, but never did end up doing anything, lol. We shall see how this one works out!
ReplyDeleteNo viewing party, but for one (me). Raising my cup to join you across the states in celebration of Downton Abbey's last hurrah. A very pretty teacup in that first photo.
ReplyDeleteYes, my friends, and I, are planning a big final viewing party. We're not pleased that this series is over, but we will celebrate it!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun post. Here in France they already aired the last episode but I am participating in a Downton Abbey Swap so the fun continues
