Reviews (1)
It's hard to believe that Season 4 is so modern. Edith writes for the newspaper, Mary chooses between new suitors, and Downton hosts a young relative from Scotland who is a true frog of her time. A visit to the royal court is about to take place, and new blood is bubbling under the stairs... but there are also downsides. Unplanned motherhood, and a racially mixed family. It's as if we've run out of general themes and our friends at the BBC just wanted to remind us that virtually nothing has changed in the last hundred years. After one world war, one world has disappeared and there is no going back. We need to spread our wings and let the modern age flow.
