Reviews of this series by the user Stanislaus (1)
Downton Abbey (2010)
For me, Downton Abbey is definitely a gem and the icing on the cake in the field of historical series. It takes place in the 1910s in the beautiful setting of England and together with Julian Fellowes' engaging script, the beautiful music and the quality performances, it is my cup of tea. I really like the sets, the costumes and the overall period feel that is extremely authentic. Of the cast, Maggie Smith is of course my favourite, but I also like the other members of the ensemble. In short, a sort of expanded and improved version of Gosford Park in serial format, where many of my favourite aspects of the film collide, resulting in an unforgettable spectacle.
