More fruitcake on hand for another wedding at Downton (ITV)
Another Downton Day in America. This week’s episode S3E3 (E1 & E2 were shown on Masterpiece last week) of Downton Abbey led us on an emotional roller coaster. First it was happy days for fans as Edith’s wedding was sure to be more fun than Mary’s and perhaps we would actually see a wedding reception this time around. Meanwhile, Downton was in ruin and the Crawleys were sent off searching for a new home. In the end, the tables are turned: wedding goes down in flames, while Daisy saves the day by remembering that Lavinia had given her a letter to post explaining to her father that Matthew belonged to Mary and not her. I am still not quite sure how or why one would write a letter like that, or how Reggie managed to have amassed a fortune while Lavinia went under cover for Sir Richard to clear a huge debt that he held over her father. Regardless, Matthew can now claim the fortune to help save the day.
