You've been with us through the good, the bad and the downright weird (Strumpet City, we're looking at you).

New Coin, New Handkerchief

The podcast that watched Downton Abbey so you didn't have to is still going! Just like your favorite British period piece, but with more feelings and swears! Bask in the glory of Dame Maggie Smith as hilarious Anglophiles Kelly Anneken &amp; Amy Schneider explore the class struggle, history, fashion, and the art of staring wistfully into the middle distance on Downton Abbey, The Crown, Mr. Selfridge, Peaky Blinders, every Titanic film ever made, Pride &amp; Prejudice, and much more! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

I started listening way after DA ended because I wanted a companion podcast for my rewatch of the series before I saw the movie. I had high hopes due to the long running time of the episodes because I thought it would include some cool facts I didn’t know about the time period or the filming of the show. I’m still going to try to power through in hopes that it improves, but right now I’m pretty unimpressed. There are some interesting tidbits for sure, but way more loud laughing, random uninteresting side conversations, and low brow humor about people being ugly (I mean come on, it wasn’t funny in third grade to literally make fun of someone’s face and it’s not funny now). The hosts don’t seem to like the show, which is weird because this podcast is advertised as being designed for fans of the show. Maybe it’ll get better, right now it’s meh.

Best out there. Can’t wait to hear your take on the movie. Honestly I’d probably listen to you rewatch it all again. Whenevs!

Rejoice, Cousins new and old! It’s time to recap Downton Abbey S4E1 with Kelly &amp; Tom and reveal a new UYDS! theme song.  This ukulele/guitar arrangement is by Cousin Matthew Lister and he is accompanied by Cousin Nick Lanzer.  Otherwise, Kelly &amp; Tom are beyond excited to meet the new Breakfast Club, say farewell to O’Brien’s bangs, malign the Skank Braithwaites, learn about St. Valentine’s Day and workhouses, think about werewolf employment opportunities, go nuts over adorable babies, and celebrate the triumphant return of our girl Mags.  Kelly finally pronounces Siobhan correctly, Tom wants some sarsaparilla, and everyone is reminded that “Grantham Knows Least.” Hosted on Acast.
