Great show for those who appreciate such stories!
I too usually need subtitles to understand British words. Downton Abbey is on at least one of the Orlando/Gainesville area PBS channels. You might be able to get the DVD of some of the seasons from the Lake, Marion, and/or Sumter County Library systems.
