Random notes on ITV's Downton Abbey BTS special!

Oct 26, 2011 12:16

Eeeeeeeeeeee I AM SO EXCITED FOR SUNDAY.

I've no idea how to record it to upload here or anything, but thought I'd share observations because I AM TOO EXCITED. No big spoilers, just a scene description that in my opinion, is significant...

( Spoilers! )

speculation, dan stevens, downton abbey, spoilers

Awesome!!!!! I really do feel like an addict who has not had nearly enough crack from this series (except the crack plots)

Still refreshing ITV madly but I HAVE to go to bed. Thank you Claire. Going to sleep with happy DA thoughts *sigh*

Oh, we're so very changeable, aren't we? BUT I DON'T CARE!!! :) Eeeeeeeeee!!! :D

And the wedding in ep 8! And the scandal that might come out at the end of 2x07!!! HEEEEEE!!!!

Withdrawal makes us cranky. Totally understandable :)

Also what got me was... When Matthew's makes the hair comment "I hope you won't try that.." He just... LOOKS at Mary. And everyone else looks sort of slightly shocked, but it's like he's OBLIVIOUS... Idk... In my CRAZY head I even wonder if they've like, kissed or something already... That is RIDICULOUS I know, but... THE WAY HE LOOKS AT HER. It's like... They know something, they mean something, that the others aren't aware of. I am reading FAR TOO MUCH into this. But I'm almost sure it's after Violet's spoken to him. (Watch me get proved totally wrong now...)

Awwwwww!!! OMG, well what if he's just seeing her with new eyes now -- just...appreciating everything about her, and she doesn't know Violet has talked to him, so she's just doing her old "I'm going to gaze at you adoringly and you'll think it's just in friendship ( ... )

OMG.This is really messing up with my poor nerves. I get terribly excited one minute about these two and hopelessly hopeless the next.

I. JUST. CAN'T WAIT. FOR. THIS. M/M mindfuck

I hope we are rewarded for our trauma with a series 3 that is a happy, sparky, flirty MM sex fest.

mysticgypsy1 October 26 2011, 12:39:58 UTC

I will collapse then...with joy :D!

I posted, on twitter I think, what I'd like the opening scene of S3 to be, keeping in mind that the theme will be the roaring 20s.

As in the S1 opener, the servants are getting the house ready for the day. Cut to MM's bedroom immediately after a very satisfying assignation. Mary (breathless): "Granny keeps telling me the honeymoon doesn't last. I beg to differ." Equally breathy chuckles from Matthew in response.

I KNOW. I was SO miserable yesterday about M/L and now I'm SO EXCITED.

Interestingly, hubby just watched it too, and the Matthew/Violet scene, he said:

"Now there's the face of a man who's just been told everything he wanted to hear but never dared to hope."

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Apologies if this is inappropriate but I think I love your husband a little bit right now :)

Woo Hoo tripp3235 October 26 2011, 12:13:36 UTC

Oh thank God. I needed to see some LOOKS from Matthew towards Mary. And I'm with him, please Mary don't cut your hair.

So it's Violet who says the line about barging in a man's room. LOL.

Re: Woo Hoo mysticgypsy1 October 26 2011, 12:26:54 UTC

Just the thing only she would do. God how I love Granny!!
