What a shame about the water bottle.

Downton Abbey
Merged with an older topic.
Hi, wondering if there are any Downton Abbey fans here? I am a huge fan and love everything about it. Such a well made series, wouldn't you agree?

So lovely to see fellow Downton Abbey fans on the forums. I still watch the Dvds. For continued conversations feel free to join the FB page Downton Abbey Official.

Re: Downton Abbey!
We have the whole series on DVD and watch it all at least once a year!

Re: Downton Abbey!
Yes - hoping to see it. I'm waiting for two friends to come back off holiday - they are big Downton fans and we are all going to see it together! It's apparently quite weepy at the end!

Re: Downton Abbey!
We tried to get the Groupon two for one deal Rob - but it was sold out.
It's going to cost us about £22 to see it one day this week at the cheaper rate before 5pm.
Don't know if that's a good price???

Re: Downton Abbey!
Chick and I always go to the Orion Cinema in Burgess Hill to see the latest films, Pete. Adults tickets are £6.90 and senior tickets are £5.90, and so it costs us £11.80 to go to the pictures.

Re: Downton Abbey!
That's very reasonable Eddie - Our nearest cinema is an Odeon.
I believe in about two or three years when my wife and I are fifty five we will qualify for a mature/senior ticket at a slightly reduced price!

Re: Downton Abbey!
We're quite lucky where we live, we're about 20 mins drive from a cinema which costs £4.50 per ticket, so we'll definitely be going to see Downton in the next couple of weeks.

Re: Downton Abbey!
We somehow never got into the TV series, I'll look forward to hearing how everyone rates the film version.

Re: Downton Abbey!
Went to see the film, enjoyed it immensely. I don't go to the cinema often, so that was quite an experience in itself. The seating has certainly changed, and so, so comfortable. Not like the cinema's of the 60's.
