I thought the first two episodes were incredibly slow for something that has only 9 episodes per season, but I think they were just building to ep. 3.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I agree. Mary was driving me nuts. And Lord Grantham was being right old twat about including her (rather, not) in the plans for the estate. And I continue to completely distrust Edna (though Branson...tsk tsk tsk...former chauffeur or not, power differential there) and Jimmy.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I watched ep 4 and have not watched the show again. I was really really put off.

What, specifically? (Not a challenge -- just a curiosity.)

Aims,

Sorry, ep 3 is the last one I've seen. The end of the ep, I was done. This is Season 4 I am talking about.

I finished it off (Season 4).

Yawn.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

Just watched episode 1 of the new Bletchley Circle series. (I think I know why Holli is currently posting about princess coats!) I liked it: Susan is still traumatized from the previous series, and Lucy and Millie both have more interesting jobs. I did figure out the plot twist before the characters did, though, which I shouldn't have.

Writing an essay aimed at the UK market that is supposed to be informal and a bit colorful. Are the words "sucker" and "grifter" too American or do they work in a UK context?

Spontaneously, I would say that they're both quite American, but grifter is probably OK while sucker is not.
