reveilles - Thanks for the fic update!

carrie - Thanks for that link! I love her hobo/rock chic look!

Btw, is Glastonbury kind of like Coachella in the UK?

Juliana - Me too!

Here's another pic of Lily at Glastonbury.

"Yes yes getting ready for Lionel !! #Glastonbury #coachfall2015 @coach #goodtimes . Match the bag to the sweater innit!"

I will watch "The Gilded Age" on NBC.

Some pics of Lily at Glastonbury......Glastonbury Festival - Day 4 - 006 - Lily James Online / Photo Archive

Thanks.

Glastonbury was on the BBC over the weekend Lindsay, have to say I didn't find much to interest me though, I hope Lily had more luck.

It's a little bit like Coachella, only all music on different stages. I think you'd call it an eclectic mix, lol.

Thanks for the extra pic too.

Ladies, While you await D.A., in the states the remake of Poldark is being shown. Perhaps some of you in the UK have seen it already. This guy is too dark for my tastes but more fiery than the original. It's a nice romance. He isn't as milquetoast as Matthew, though.

You can always do a rewatch of the series, I know people do that with other shows.

Starfield_Scribe · 06-30-2015, 08:18 PM

Well of course

I have all my DVDs good to go when I need them

the wait for DVD/airing in America is going to suck the most this time

I will watch this but I'll watch Wolf Hall first.

That's good to know. I know some people (elsewhere) just want the show to end.

BTS under the cut. It's not really spoilerish but I'll tag it anyway.

Spoiler:

lol, I was the opposite, I looked forward to watching it, and enjoyed it from the start.

I'm hoping the last series will be extra special at least.

Thanks for the links ladies. xxx

I know what you mean, he's too dark for my taste as well, I've seen Poldark in the UK, but just couldn't get involved in it for some reason.

Wolf Hall I skipped altogether, can't stand that smug looking actor Damian Lewis as Henry.
