I love Downton. And Season 2 worked wonderfully on screen but I feel many scenes were better suited with actors than in print. However, what made this worse was Julian Fellowes. Like the first script book, Julian felt the need to offer asides when none was needed. If I ever get around to reading the Season 3 scripts, I’m going to skip the footnotes entirely. (

Picked this up at a library friends sale. As a fan of the show, I'm enjoying reading the scripts and hearing the actors' voices in my head. With Fellowes' footnotes about inspirations for scenes, viewpoints on history, and personal commentary, I am gaining greater appreciation for what the show has accomplished. Do I dare track down the other script volumes??? (
