Here in the UK Downton Abbey will be starting the first episode of the last ever series in an hours time. Looking forward to it - but sad as there will be no more shows. There MAY be a film in the future. !!

I love this show! So sad it's ending! While I don't agree with everything from that era they have kept it interesting!

I too am sad to see this series end, much like several of my other favorite series have ended.

So sad to hear its ending too but I've got my order in for the DVD already. I've noticed they're starting to show the reruns on PBS now too.

My favorite show! I can't wait to see the 6th season, but totally miserable that this will be the final year.

I have everybody's story lines sorted out, though, so what's left is to see if the producers agree with me!

Well - the first episode last evening was great - and will be well worth waiting for - I will so miss this fabulous show !

I am sad to see it go, also.

Oh my such a beautiful manor.....what a way to live! Wander thru those halls and wish those walls could talk! Here in America, and maybe elsewhere, that I don't know, old buildings are demolished for whatever is new and modern.....

As an aside...a daughter of a friend is heading for London for a Masters scholarship for two years...what a great opportunity to see history.....
