Downton Abbey

I watch very little on TV these days, but made the effort this weekend to watch the first episode of Downton Abbey, (For those who don't live in the UK, a new big budget Upstairs Downstairs type drama about a grand Edwardian family in decline.) All in all it was a bit bloodless and anaemic, despite the cast including the wonderful Maggie Smith, but it gets worse! Despite a handful of pretty young daughters and the house positively crawling with an army of maids, scullions, and other female domestics, NOT ONE SPANKING!

What do we all pay our licence fee for?
