Annotation:
In THE WORLD OF DOWNTON ABBEY, Jessica Fellowes offers a behind-the-scenes look at the popular PBS series, a soap opera-like confection about life in a British manor house at the turn of the 20th century. Fellowes is the niece of series creator Julian Fellowes, and she was given full access to the actors and set. She discovers that the actor who plays the chauffeur Branson must drive a vintage auto with a balky clutch and that dining scenes can take some 10 hours to capture on film, among other such bits of trivia. Fans of the show will find much to amuse them, and history buffs will appreciate the many passages on social and cultural history that the author includes.
