Watching WW1 on #<\/s>Downtonabbey<\/strong><\/a> Trench warfare doesn’t look as bad as everyone makes out. There were only 6 Germans apparently.<\/p>\r\n\"\"<\/a>Craig responded, chiding his friend for telling secrets about the show:\r\n

@<\/s>monstroso<\/strong><\/a> Enough with the spoilers Charlie. #<\/s>Downtonabbey<\/strong><\/a> 2nd season is not showing in US yet. Now I know there’s a war & 6 Germans. #<\/s>arse<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\r\n\"\"<\/a>Charlie jokingly replied that he wouldn’t spoil other parts of the show:\r\n
