Diagonaldi Very well executed

Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

Gurlyndrobb While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

Lollivan It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

donna-64012 The best of the best but I can only give it a 9. I'd rate Upstairs Downstairs a 10 if not for the awful acting abilities of Meg Wynn Owen. I haven't seen any of her other work but her portrayal of Hazel is bewildering. I wonder if the character is supposed to be so odd in her halting speech and mannerisms.

geordiesdad Perhaps, with the mindset of the naive 70's with hosts of mindless lookalike comedies this 'soap opera' stood somewhat above the rest but in my opinion, viewed from the caustic point of view of modern people it feels as subtle as a cartoon. Many.....too many incidents do NOT ring true to the spirit of the Victorian era and in that compromise lies, for me at any rate, the failure of this series in today's world. I am about to begin Downton Abbey and it will be interesting to see the qualitative differences between them. Were it not for Gordon Jackson and one or two others, I would have had difficulty even watching this to the end. Probably revolutionary in it's day it had, in my opinion, NOT survived the dramatic shift forward.

jajj2011 I watched your newly revised movie of "Upstairs Downstairs" and I really enjoyed it. I loved the downstairs housekeeper and the moment she found out that she was the housekeeper. I did not know about the old television show of it so when I watched the behind scenes part and found out about that I was really pleased about the reason for the down stairs housekeepers reaction to her getting the job! I really do hope the series will come back to T.V. I would stop everything I was doing to watch it. If they can have shows on PBS They can have this one as well.In all interest, Julie Miles

javieralbo I have recently finished watching all five seasons on DVD. I have to say I have been immensely happy watching it and that I will miss Rose, Mr. Hudson, Lord and Lady Bellamy etc. etc. more than I can say. As a Spaniard living in the U.S. I greatly enjoyed listening to the servants' accents, even though sometimes I missed words or even entire sentences! Rose's accent particularly intrigued me. Could anybody tell me where she was supposed to be from, according to her accent? Was she deliberately affecting it? I believe Jean Marsh was born and raised in London. I wonder if Rose's accent is a normal London one. Also, I remember seeing my mother watch the series in Spain. I must have been at least five or six years old in order to be able to remember that, but that would mean the the series was shown in Spain in the late 70s or even early 80s, considerably later than in the UK and the US, and probably other countries as well. Does anybody happen to know when the series was shown in different countries? Thank you
