but god damn great writing (based on a robert graves novel) and superb acting. highly watchable and addictive. check it out some time. also, upstairs downstairs (the original, not the modern reboot which was crap).

Yeah, I know the novel, but it's never occurred to me to watch the '70s BBC-er-whatever adaptation. I will though.

Also, don't think I've ever heard of upstairs downstairs, but I'll look into that as well.
