Ok so I found this amazing video while I was reading a Sybil and Branson tumblr it's so good. I've watched a couple of video's by the same person and they are all good. So just watch it and cry.

Also I would just like to say I will be posting things that are not about Downton Abbey in the future but after the huge thing that just happened I don't really think there is much else to write about.

Downton Abbey: Episode 5

So I have finally built up the courage to write about last Sunday's episode but first
SPOILERS SPOILERS DO NOT READ IF YOU HAVE NOT WATCHED THE EPISODE

Well the main reason I haven't updated until now is that I have been way too upset to do anything, especially write about it. I didn't really stop crying for two days and still find myself tearing up, and if you watched it and didn't you are heartless. Sybil was my favourite character ever in anything in terms of that she was a really big role model for me. No-one can deny that she was the only really nice person in the show (except for Tom and maybe Anna) so killing her off was a really horrible thing for Julian Fellowes to do. I mean when I first watched it I was already exhausted because I have to stay up a bit later than I normally do so when it happened I burst into the biggest flood of tears I ever remember having. So maybe she isn't real and Jessica Brown Findley isn't dead but that didn't stop people all over the country crying and it definitely didn't stop me. I couldn't even sleep at all that night because all I could think about was 'No more Sybil, No more Sybil and Branson' NO MORE SYBIL AND TOM AT ALL how could this happen !!!!!!!!!!! I was thinking there would be loads more episodes of them but no, no more AT ALL. I'm so angry right now but there is nothing I can do. Tom's face when he saw her dead just keeps popping into my head, to be honest if it wasn't for him and the baby I would just stop watching right now because next episode I will probably start crying again. I have been in the worst mood all week and haven't been getting much sleep. ITS JUST NOT FAIR.

So there is my rant and I know I didn't mention anything else but thats all I can think about.

Sunday 14 October 2012

HI, I'm very excited at the moment because I just saw Austin Mahone at his first UK appearance and then I saw this which is brilliant, sorry I couldn't find a better picture but basically it's 'The Downton Times.' It was in the Sunday Times and who's on the cover ? Its Sybil, Tom and ... their Baby !!!!!!! and it is a cute baby too. Also just wanted to say that the "Best Glee Couple" poll results are in and the winner is ... Finchel which I could not be more happy about. Anyway I'll get a review up soon.

Downton Abbey : Episode 4

OK so I haven't posted for ages because in the house I am staying in at the moment, while mine is being done up has the worst Internet ever, so by the time I have watched some things the new one is out and my review would be completely out of date.  I have loads to say about recent TV though and decided to start with my favourite Downton Abbey

This Downton Abbey was one of my favourites ever! I was expecting a lot to happen as I watched the "next time" last week and all I really could think about in the week was whats going to happen to Sybil and Branson and to be honest I began completely over thinking it with things like 'he is going to be shot,' and worse. So I can tell you that watching the episode was extremely relieving. Though throughout the episode my mum was saying that she was cross with Tom I disagreed as really he did the right thing and these are the reasons why ... 
1. It was all planned out. It is not like he left her really as they had planned what to do earlier and not following it would have just been confusing.
2. If he had not gone straight away who knows what would have happened and everyone who has watched Downton Abbey knows that Sybil would have been far more upset if something had happened to Tom than her having to travel alone. 
3. Everyone knows that Sybil is strong and had no problem with the plan at all in fact she would have probably been more annoyed if Tom had not thought she could go on her own.
4. So maybe setting a house on fire was slightly drastic but he was fighting for what he believed in and everyone new that was what he believed in so they cant suddenly be cross about it now.

Anyway I should stop now because I've realised all I am really talking about at the moment is Sybil and Branson and people are getting annoyed but I do have to say one more thing. I am really worried that Tom won't be able to bare the humiliation of living at Downton and will go back to Ireland and be killed.
Anyway back to the rest of the episode. I was so upset when Ethel had to give Charlie away especially when Mr Bryant was so unkind to her in fact tears did come to my eyes when she waved him goodbye because its obvious that without Charlie her life has absolutely no purpose and she has no chance. Then I thought (and my thoughts were confirmed by the next time) that the only way for her to be okay again is for Mrs. Hughes to offer her a job at Downton. Edith writing to the newspaper about woman's rights definitely brought a smile to my face as I felt this was exactly what she needed and I loved how she and Sybil both now supported woman's rights, I also think this made Tom a bit happier and at home.
