Christmas special of Downton Abbey to be screened
Following the spectacular success of the first series of Downton Abbey on ITV1 it was a no-brainer that a second series would be commissioned pretty quickly, a fact that was confirmed quite soon after the first run.
Now not only do we have a rough time frame of when the second series is due to be shown but also the announcement of a Christmas special!
It seems strange to be talking about Christmas specials in January (as if autumn isn't long enough to wait for the second series!) but at least it's something to look forward to. An Edwardian Christmas sounds just the ticket and sitting inside watching Downton Abbey on a cold autumnal night doesn't sound bad either!
