The Storms are gathering...
Downton Abbey is subject to a couple of changes. Some of them are immediate consequences of the horrors of The Great War, others are the results of the typical mixture of self-inflicted chaos and the clashes of modern times and old ways. This year, some of the plots are a bit too much on the soapy side for my taste, but that doesn´t change the fact that the cast remains to be spectacularly well suited to deliver even the most silly lines of dialogue. That said, I enjoyed the return to Downton very much, though the changes in mood and topic reduced the fun a bit. It has to be mentioned that the series felt strangely at unease and lacked a proper, satisfying resolution. I strongly suggest that you buy the Christmas special, "Christmas at Downton" right together with Series 2, because it is the perfect bookend to last year´s series and manages to be a much better ending to the whole affair. What I don´t appreciate is that I am forced to buy Series 2 and the X-mas special separately, with the Special being rather pricey for a single episode.
