Belgravia

It is not DA, & doesn't try to be. It is bleaker and more sophisticated. Loving the scripting & cast, really enjoying it so far.

It's natural that anything Julian Fellowes does will be compared to Downton Abbey, and whilst Belgravia isn't quite up there, it's still a good watch.

As you'd expect it's the war of the classes, here the families of historical grandeur are joined by the nouveau riche, the new money seeking a place in Society.

It looks fabulous, terrific sets and costumes, I thought the acting was great, Harriet Walter as always can do no wrong, Tamsin Greig was a joy, loved watching her.

It won't be for everyone, but I thoroughly enjoyed it, tea and scandal, great for Sunday nights. 8/10.

Was totally expecting a boring series, but to my surprise I was totally smitten by it. I can't wait for the next episode and I really am glad I picked up on this.

If you are planning to watch "Belgravia" then you already enjoy this type thing. The acting is great and the story intriguing. So far everything you could possibly want in a period piece.

Tamsin Greig, who looks so familiar to me but can't place her, is truly exceptional here. Why is she not in more stuff?

So far, so great. Let's hope the series continues the quality.

Critics have said: "Bad Language" - Horrendously dull - No Downton Abbey - wasn't impressed so far - Not Ready for another go yet... - Wow, this is bad They all seem bigger snobs than the worthless 'gentry' who think they are better than others and entitled to luxury by some God given right. I found the story captivating and the acting excellent. Those haters out there can "sod off!" My only regret is guessing the surprise ending.
