Grab some tea and crumpets, and put on your finest evening wear! Join Irvin, Sam, Sierra, and special guest Dr. Louise Freeman in a discussion about all the connections between Harry Potter and Downton Abbey.

In this episode:

• It’s our first show after summer vacation… Our heads are bare and full of air, dead flies and bits of fluff

• House elves and servants

• If Gilderoy Lockhart gets hold of Riddle’s diary, he ends up as Paul Atreides

• How much of Downton’s popularity is due to the HP connection with Maggie Smith?

• Everyone wants to give O’Brien a kick

• Redemption arcs done right!

• Who’s the less fun Rita Skeeter?

• Lots of late-in-life tragedies for folks who don’t deserve them

• All the characters will be recast as Nigel!

• Tom = Harry’s man through and through
