The Brits can pronounce things however they want. I find listening to their various accents - and pronunciations - part of the fun of watching this show. I'm sorry for those on Squirrel Watch, but my ALSATIAN (see what I did there?) is enjoying the Bleating Lamb!

I just discovered that this and past seasons are available via youtube.

My disappointment is that they are now (slightly) past the time when the real owner of Highclere was helping Howard Carter discover King Tut's tomb. I wish there was a hat tip to that discovery just to tie the (real) property's owner of that time to the Downton family. Other than that, I just hope Isis (an Egyptian goddess - ha! the irony) is just pregnant or suffering indigestion from eating her master's sock - she is a lab after all.
