Downton Abbey or Bust









What do you get when you mix Downton Abbey, Petula Clark and CATS???


*and a 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 ... to the tune of DOWNTOWN by Petula Clark*

KATIE:  ♫♩
When you're a cat and life is making you crazy
you can always go –
DOWNTON

Waffles is driving, better hold on tight,
Or you won't make it to –
DOWNTON


WAFFLES:  ♫♩
Just listen to my song so settle down and make some biscuits.
But look both ways for coppers cause we wouldn't want a ticket.
How can we lose?
There's no traffic here,
We'll forget all our troubles, but watch out for deer.


CHORUS:  ♫♩ 
Let's go DOWNTON!
Things will be great when we're DOWNTON!
No cooler place for sure,  DOWNTON!
The dinner gong's ringing for us.


KATIE:  If you're a regular visitor here, you're probably wondering why we're spoofing a TV show on a Tuesday as opposed to our regular Saturday Morning Feature. Well Glogirly got inspired when we were updating the graphics on our Facebook Page. She had Downton Abbey on the brain, and then there was the Seinfeld rerun where George couldn't remember why he was supposed to go Downtown... throw in a little Petula Clark ear worm and here we are.  And you though Lord Waffles was the crazy one.

WAFFLES:  LORD Waffles??? Sweet!

  1. I'm seriously starting to think I'm missing out on something special by not jumping on the Downton craze.

  20. Love those graphics. TW doesn’t watch TV but Downtown was one of the first 45s she bought as a kid. So seeing as you’re a resource for tv shows, can you recommend any other shows we may like? Hopefully they’ll star cats like Lady Katie and Lord Waffles also.
