*Spoiler alert klaxon - whoop, whoop!*
Big up to the eagle-eyed Downton Abbey fan at the Daily Telegraph who spotted the massive spoiler in Thursday's press release from ITV about the commission of a third series of Downton Abbey. Monkey can't find the offending release on the ITV press office website (though it's possible it was removed when they realised the howler) – so would anyone other than journos actually have known about the spoiler... if the Telegraph hadn't put it on the front page? Monkey's just rejoicing that there will be more Downton to provide light relief on Sunday nights. No other show on UK TV currently delivers so consistently when it comes to unintentionally hilarious plot twists.
