by Myslikova street in Prague

...long since I last got a feeling of déjà vu, like from an earlier life


but two months ago it happened, like an imagination I hade really lived there

on a Prague street I didn't expected, since this Myslikova is located on "the new" city side (closer to the Jiraskuv bridge than the most famous bridges), in a relatively anonymous area where I never experienced something memorable during my three visits before...

Maybe it was just some symbol I saw or smell I got reminded by, right there or delayed from while I was walking again through many corners of this cozy city.

Downton Abbey, first season


in which I find those most memorable roles
filling the model of Princess SnowWhite &
The Seven Dwarfs (or two opposing dwarfs of every kind)



Beautiful roles

more soulful beauty ANNA SMITH (head housemaid)

more physical beauty GWEN DAWSON (servant maid)



Happy roles

better LADY SYBIL (youngest daughter)

worse LADY MARY (eldest daughter)


Grumpy roles

better CARSON (Head Butler)

worse SARAH O'BRIEN (personal chamber maid)


Crazy roles

better DAISY ROBINSON (kitchen maid)

worse LADY EDITH (middle daughter)


Shy roles

better JOHN BATES (Valet of the Lord)

worse WILLIAM MASON (second footman)


Explosive roles

better MRS. PATMORE (chief cook)

worse ISOBEL CRAWLEY (widowed nurse)


Exhausted roles

better VIOLET CRAWLEY (Grandmother countess)

worse MATTHEW CRAWLEY (cousin and would-be heir)


Wise roles

better CORA CRAWLEY (Wife countess)

worse THOMAS BARROW (first footman)




Well, not until this summer I began to watch the perfect drama Downton Abbey, after people declairing it's greatness during several castle visits. First episode seemed an extremely difficult pace to follow, but since I learned the roles in their social pattern I could feel more and more immediate excitement over every step in and around "their castle".
