Downton Abbey LIVE events: San Francisco & San Jose

Celebrate Downton Abbey in San Francisco and San Jose! 

Season 5 starts January 4. I've seen all the episodes, and they're wonderful. The acting is fabulous, the storylines riveting, and the costumes superb!

Join KQED and other Downton fans on Saturday, January 3 for an exclusive preview of the premiere episode of Downton Abbey Season 5. This year KQED will have four free screenings (2 in San Francisco and 2 in San Jose) of the one-hour premiere followed by a classic Maggie Smith film! Admission is free but space is limited and there's a waitlist. RSVP below for you and a guest. Phone reservations not accepted.

Saturday, January 3
1:00pm Downton Abbey Preview
2:45pm The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie (1969)

Maggie Smith won the Best Actress Oscar for her searing portrayal of a headstrong teacher ignoring the curriculum to spread an over romanticized world view to her 12 year old charges. Adapted from the novel by Muriel Spark and based on the play by Jay Presson Allen. Directed by Ronald Neame.
