Downton Abbey Season Five Starts Tomorrow

Yes, I know it is unfair that the Brits get to see Downton Abbey before we do in the United States.  In fact, the finale for season five was shown last November (with a Christmas special broadcast last month) and we have yet to see episode one.  This is something that we need to fix, yet that does not deter from the interest in this Sunday's return of season five. 

Here is a trailer to show you whats in store as well as an interview with the characters on The View (we learn that Thomas was supposed to be killed off in the first episode).  The trailer indicates more change at Downton Abbey, including some mingling between the servants and the served.  Lady Mary also seems to be shocking her parents once again.  Finally, as you may recall from last season, we will need to deal with a questionable murder, ongoing blackmail, and Lady Edith, who still has plenty to hide. 

And if you want to hear a little more from Dan Stevens concerning his departure from the role of Matthew on the series, you can see him on the Today show.
