Although the characters Thomas & Sarah were not in the series Upstairs Downstairs very long i do think this was a mistake as i just loved them together, and so glad a spin off was made. I never saw it originally as i wasn't in the country.
Again i am catching up in 2017. I cant believe they never made a season 3 as you are left wondering what happened although i have devised my own ending.
Back to the series. The first one is Sarah without Thomas, he does turn up and they do end up back together i wont say much as it spoils plots. From then on they go on to have many a adventure together. Some of them surreal, some quite humorous and a few quite dramatic.
I loved the one in the school which showed their compassionate side and they saved the children there who were being badly cared for by a greedy principal.
I loved the old classic cars which were in some of the stories, especially so the Itala grand Prix car which was fabulous and the silver ghost again which was the Bellamy's car and was sold and ended up in Thomas hands through innocently taken on a chauffeur job and the employers were criminals.
Every story was complete, you get to meet Thomas family his mother and brother who is a rector and has a nasty secret, but not to worry, Sarah finds out about it and exposes him.
You get to see Thomas in a rage with revenge in his heart over something Sarah did to him.
You got to see them go from downstairs to upstairs but as usual it doesn't go well for them and they end up back in service where they meet Richard De Brassey a strange and lonely man who drinks too much, but love comes in odd places.
The very last scene of this lovely series is of Sarah at a graveside after Richard De Brassey and Thomas are caught in a barn fire, you never know who died who survived although wikipedia does say thomas survives they did film some of the next series so perhaps that is why then can say that.
For me they both couldn't have died, as she would have been burying two people. One would have died and one would have survived but hurt i am thinking in hospital, Thomas and I hope he went to America.
Its sad we never got to know as this last episode was brilliant and I really enjoyed it. Sarah really loved Richard and finally had the chance of a real life, but it was again taken from her.
The series shows a couple who live by their wits enjoying their life, aving a larf and even just about but not quite breaking the law to get what they want. Its funny, sad, surreal, but fabulous. I will watch it again.
