Fortunately there was no breakup on the horizon for Edith and Bertie Pelham - quite the opposite, in fact.

I don't know about you, but I have a running checklist of things the show needs to accomplish before signing off. I need happiness for Edith, romance for Tom, a baby for Anna and Mr. Bates, and peace for Thomas. I definitely don't need any more deaths.

Torment, it turns out, looks rather good on Mary Crawley - maybe because, for the first time in many moons, we can feel the pulse of a human heart.

Death paid its annual visit to Downton Abbey on Sunday, triggering a series of rash emotional decisions - some more upsetting than others.

8/10

Episode seven provided some especially explosive action sequences, and while that may be the high point for physical action, there will surely be emotional eruptions to look forward to these final two weeks.
