Hello, everyone.As my hobby is watching movies and television.Today, I’d like to introduce an amazing television series-Downton Abbey, which has won many prices in its entire broadcast – including a Golden Globe Award for Best Miniseries [ˈmɪni:ˌsɪəri:z] or Television Film and a Emmy Award for Outstanding Miniseries.！-1 The series, set in the fictional Yorkshire country estate [isˈteit] of Downton Abbey, describe the lives of the Crawley family and their servants after the post-Edwardian era — with the great events in history having an effect on their lives and the British social hierarchy [ˈhaiərɑ:ki] in general.Such events described throughout the whole series include the news of the sinking of the Titanic in the first series;the outbreaks of World War I, the Spanish influenza [ˌɪnflu:ˈenzə], and the formation of the Irish Republic in the third series.！-2 Now, I want to introduce some details about this series.Royal and noble ranks: The aristocracy [,æri'stɔkrəsi] are people considered to be in the highest social cla in a society which has or once had a political system of aristocracy [,æri'stɔkrəsi].And the others are merchants [ˈmə:tʃənt] / craftsmen/ peasants/ freemen.And the Crawley family is of course belonging to the nobles.!-4 What impre me most is the characters in the play.Dowager Counte of Grantham, do you remember this old lady? Profeor McGonagall in Harry Potter!In this television series, she seems to nail her roles every time, and her acting in Downton is no exception."The mother of Robert, Earl of Grantham, Violet is proud, loyal to her son.This man is Robert, Earl of Grantham.And this is his wife, Cora, Counte of Grantham.I really like McGovern as Cora---she is beautiful and graceful, but also brave and levelheaded.The Counte of Grantham is a lone American among the British, which I love!Her costumes are downright gorgeous.-5 Lady Mary Crawley, The Oldest Daughter Michelle Dockery米歇尔多克里plays the eldest and coldest daughter of Cora and Robert....her parent's desire for her to marry Matthew in order to keep Downton in the Crawley family is just one focal point in Downton Abbey.-7 And this is Lady Edith Crawley, The Second Daughter Lady Sybil Crawley, The Youngest Daughter Sybil is probably my favorite of the Crawley daughters, she is the only daughter who seems to be even slightly interested in something other than herself.Her befriending of the maid Gwen makes me smile!:)She is the most visionary [ˈvɪʒəˌneri:] and forward-thinking of the three daughters.-8 Matthew Crawley He is a third cousin, once removed, of Lord Grantham.I think he’s so handsome and with a good personality.He and Lady Mary don’t like each other at the first time, just like Pride and Prejudice , but they are really a perfect couple in this story.-9 Anna, Head Housemaid Anna is a very kind character who is always there to lend a helping hand to her friends.She seems content with her life, but is in love with a fellow member of the Downton staff, who will not let himself become involved in a relationship John Bates, Lord Grantham's manservant.As the time is limited, I only introduce some of the Actors.-10
And then I find some more details about the TV series.The aristocracy [,æri'stɔkrəsi]’s favourite social activities are dinner party and hunting.The aim to held the party is not just eating and drinking, but to improve social relationship.And then I’d like to introduce some Victorian style costumes, which are from 1837 to 1901, during the reign of Queen.The era [ˈiərə] of women’s clothing is characterized [ˈkæriktəraiz] by extensive use of the lace, spinning, ribbons, bows, multi-layered cake cutting, wrinkle, and other elements, and the collar, prince sleeves, leg of mutton sleeves and other court style.In the conservative Victorian era, the need for pure culture, women must put their tightly wrapped.tail coat [teil kəut] Over the years tail coats of varying types have evolved into forms of formal dre for both day and evening wear.That’s my introduce about Downton Abbey.Thank you.
