The latest in
Downton Abbey wear. I love it! Though I really take exception to Rob James-Collier's
perception of his character arc on the show. Yes, he plays a pretty nasty guy, but "Thomas" has of late been rather softened by the depiction of his desire for "Jimmy" (Ed Speleers). Cruelly misled by "O'Brien" (Siobhan Finneran), he allows himself to believe his desire may be a two-way street, is humiliatingly rejected and has to withstand the condemnation of his boss and the threat of being cast out of his job to face an uncertain future. Baffling that James-Collier thinks "Thomas"'s actions toward "Jimmy" make him "an Edwardian sex pest" when in fact they provided the first sign that he had some of the humanity of which "O'Brien" seems completely devoid.
