While Downton Abbey fans in the UK are counting down the hours until Season 3 debuts this Sunday night on ITV1, Downton fans in Toronto can take comfort that the Dowager is currently in Toronto promoting her new film, “Quartet” at TIFF (Toronto International Film Festival). I feel myself already correcting my posture.
Tonight she accepts a special award as the 2012 recipient of the Stratford Shakespeare Festival’s Legacy Award. The Stratford Shakespeare Festival is an internationally recognized annual celebration of theatre running from April to November in the Canadian city of Stratford, Ontario. It attracts some of the best dramatic actors in the world. Last year’s winner of this award was Christopher Plummer.
