favorite downton abbey moment: hit it and car accelerates from 27 kmh to 35 kmh.
2013-02-28: Some shit early drafts:

As Daisy hands the knife to Mrs. Patmore, Daisy’s hand slips, stabbing Mrs. Patmore 7 times in the neck, chest, and arms. Mrs. Patmore falls to the floor, pulling the roast and pan with her, bleeding profusely, dead, covered in red-bliss potatoes. Daisy, horrified at the accident, backs up and slips on the roast, falling, and hitting her head on the open cast-iron stove door. She, too, is dead.

Enter Mrs. Hughes.

HOUSEHOLD SERVANT: I’m still worried about Rich Lady.

OTHER HOUSEHOLD SERVANT: Don’t be! She’s rich, ain’t she?

BUTLER: Didn’t you two talk about this earlier this episode?

OTHER HOUSEHOLD SERVANT: That was last episode.

BUTLER: It blurs together for me. I wish we had some subtext. Instead, we just keep saying the same plot points until whatever it is resolves at the end of the season. Oh, well, would one of you take this turtle soup with shellacked truffles up to the dining room? Do not make eye contact with anyone, including the turtle!
