Now this is good news for me - I'm getting less interested in Downton as history moves forward (is that sacrilege?) so I'm thrilled Julian Fellowes is talking about writing a prequel. Speaking to the BBC he says, "I do actually have an idea of doing a prequel of the courtship of Robert and
Cora, when all those American heiresses were arriving in London."They had a slightly troubled courtship, because she was in love with him before they married, as we know, and he married her entirely for her money," said Fellowes, speaking at the Bafta Screenwriters' Lecture series.
"I sort of feel there's something quite nice in there because he's a decent cove, and so he feels rather guilty about this which has affected their marriage beyond that."
Think of the wonderful costumes mmmmm
