Wonderful season Marlise and Elyse!!! Well done to you both!! The Queen Mary is beautiful! Can’t believe DA ending after just one more season though!! I’m with Elyse,.. Boo Hoo!! 😦
The Downton Dish helps me enjoy the drama in an extra way. Marlise & Elyse find humor no matter how bleak things may seem. Their enthusiasm is so appreciated.
