Coisas que não mudam #284

First impressions of the first episode of Downton Abbey's season 5:

- it seems nothing will ever happen in the first half... the setting up of the action takes a while and makes you think whether you'll keep on watching avidly the rest of the season
- things start changing in the early second half but the pace is still slow
- the last fifteen minutes are packed with action of Downton at its best. Worth the wait!!

Here are some of the fantastic punchlines of the Dowager countess:

My dear, there's nothing simpler than avoiding people you don't like. Avoiding one's friends, that's the real test.

Principles are like prayers. Noble of course, but awkward at a party.

Glad to be in Europe this fall...
