The plot thickens
18 December 2017
There is so much going on in this exciting episode. I want to say that this is my favorite episode and also the best one of Season 1.

Here, Lady Grantham reveals that she is pregnant, much to the surprise of her husband and daughters. Lady Mary has trouble deciding if she is going to marry Matthew, but her aunt helps her to think about it. Lady Mary also finds out about her sister's scheme. Meanwhile, the cook Mrs. Patmore goes to London for her eye surgery. She is accompanied by Anna, who has the opportunity to investigate Bates' history and prove herself that he is truly a good man instead of what O'Brien and Barrows suggest.

I love watching them excited by the telephone. Carson is really funny. Meanwhile, I have to say that Siobhan Finneran is an amazing actress. She perfectly portrays the bitter and despicable O'Brien. O'Brien's actions on this episode are really horrible, but it did affect the whole Crawley family's fate. And the ending is fantastic, it makes me excited to see Season 2!
