Keeley Hawes wore this lovely hat as Louisa Durrell in the 2016 production 𝑻𝒉𝒆 𝑫𝒖𝒓𝒓𝒆𝒍𝒍𝒔. But that’s not the only place this distinctive piece has appeared. In 2014, Liz White wore it as Lizzie Mottershead in 𝑶𝒖𝒓 𝒁𝒐𝒐! It was seen even earlier in a 2012 episode of 𝑼𝒑𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒊𝒓𝒔, 𝑫𝒐𝒘𝒏𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒊𝒓𝒔, worn by Anne Reid as Mrs.Clarice Thackeray. But that’s not all! Believe it or not, this costume has been in use since at least 1984! Follow the link to find out where else this piece has appeared and learn where it may have originated! Bit.ly/Acces089

Dear Gordon Jackson,
Happy Birthday!!
Today is Gordon Jackson's 1 century birthday so I created music video. His gentleness and Dignity was special, and I also like his sacred voice...!
I've been so into him since I watched "The Great Escape." I really like Mac and Roger and I started checking their other plays daily.
Again, Happy Birthday and Thank him for his unforgettable works.
"The Great Escape"(1966)/ "The Foreman Went to France"(1942)/"Nine Men"(1943)/"Millions Like Us"(1943)/"Stop Press Girl"(1949)/"The Night of the Generals"(1967)/"Upstairs, Downstairs"(1971-1975)/"The Professionals"(1977-1983)

✨️Fanfiction✨️
The One Where "Nothing Happened" But Everyone Saw It by LoveIsStrong
Have you ever watched period dramas and wondered what other people saw when the main characters were going through their shenanigans? If so - I have just the fanfic for you!
There's only one chapter up for this story so far, but I love how lighthearted this fic is.
Q: Have you read stories that showed you canon events from another person's perspective before? Is this a premise you like reading?
Let me know in the comments!

We recently went to Jordanstone House near Perth in Scotland for my sister’s wedding. This grand house was last inhibited by James Duncan and when his late wife Lady Duncan died the house was purchased, refurbished and sold on. It now is rented out to the public. The house was grand in the scale that a country house should be and had all the features expected such as the dining room, morning room, a vast greenhouse and a billiards room, all of which had been refurbished and only echos what once was. The places where the house lay untouched was the most interesting for me. The servants quarters. The servants quarters are hidden behind doors in walls and stairs closed off for the upstairs guests. As you descend down to the basement the past lives of the people and really come to life. Lost artefacts are left such as the range in the kitchen. Bottles of old homemade wine dated and sat touched in the 1970s. The bells where discs would flick when the upstairs would call. And all manner of bicycles. The one thing which struck me was no matter what was going on upstairs, standards were maintained downstairs. This was most apparent in the structure of the building. The two staircases up to servants quarters were at opposite ends of the building and the only way in and out of them were to go all the way to the basement where each set of stairs met outside the housekeeper’s bedroom. This ensured no maid would ever be alone with a footman at anytime and the housekeeper, knew where any servant was when not carrying out their duties in the house. . . . #history #scotland #architecture #uk #wedding #Jordanstone #jordanstonehouse #building #servants #upstairsdownstairs https://www.instagram.com/p/B0lDyIBF-kV/?igshid=12vlsbu8e87yr

#arthouse #film of the #day Metropolis by Fritz Lang Perhaps the most notable and influential of all silent films, It is, as A.O. Scott of the New York Times declared, "A fever dream of the future. At last we have the movie every would be cinematic visionary has been trying to make since 1927." Lavish and spectacular, with elaborate sets and modern science fiction style, Metropolis takes place in 2026, when the populace is divided between workers who must live in the dark underground and the rich who enjoy a futuristic city of splendor. The tense balance of these two societies is realized through images that are among the most famous of the 20th Century. - a #silentfilm #scifi #upstairsdownstairs #germany #feature #futuristic #art #metropolis #fritzlang #1920s SUBMIT your arthouse short on @filmfreeway TODAY!

New flash fiction after a quiet 2019, free to read online! Bit of dystopian upstairs-downstairs. https://www.harbinger.press/2020/01/best-home-on-the-worst-street-by-c-h-pearce/ Thanks Harbinger Press for publishing, and I love the illustration - stunning! ❤️ Ended up donating payment and a bit extra to Celeste Barber’s fundraiser re the Aussie bushfires, the hazardous air quality aspect felt too timely. 😢 #sff #dystopian #scifi #clifi #upstairsdownstairs #harbingerpress #flashfiction #shortstory #speculativefiction #podhome

Coming up September 19th @mofad - Dining at Downton: A Culinary History! Come celebrate the release of The Official Downton Abbey Cookbook by @dranniegray (and the new Downton Abbey movie @downtonabbey_official ) as she sits down with our founder @vflex for an in depth culinary portrait of the daily life and festive occasions in the Crawley household – from “upstairs” sumptuous dinner party centerpieces to comforting “downstairs” puddings and pies. Learn how Dr. Gray sourced recipes for the cookbook, the difference between ‘upstairs’ food and ‘downstairs’ food, and uncover who the real life Mrs. Patmores may have been. An informal reception with book signings and small bites and cocktails from the The Official Downton Abbey Cookbook and Cocktail Book will follow. Tickets live now in the bio 👆 . . . #ediblehistory #mofad #downtonabbey #downtonabbeymovie #history #food #culinaryhistory #upstairsdownstairs #historicfood #brooklyn #nycevents #cookbook #cocktails #dinnerparty https://www.instagram.com/p/B2CFYsujrrL/?igshid=nvgk79mdl540
