Short review 4 min read English Downton Abbey

Downton Abbey (2010) Review: Class, Change and Comfort

Downton Abbey is Julian Fellowes's upstairs-downstairs saga of an aristocratic Yorkshire family and their servants, the most satisfying comfort drama of its decade.

Yes. It is period drama at its most absorbing and rewatchable, ideal for fans of ensemble storytelling who can forgive soap-opera twists and a rose-tinted view of class.
