All hail to the Barron Fellowes of West Stafford. Who, you say? AKA Julian Fellowes. Maybe, who again? Ummm, duh, the creator, writer and director of the highly acclaimed Masterpiece Theatre "Downton Abbey" that we are all obsessed with. Okay, let me take a breath now. If you're fan of this highly dramatic show, then you will highly appreciate this fun-loving comedy called "Monarch of the Glen" that Julian Fellowes plays a main character on, as "Kilwillie". Who knew he was better known as an actor before creating possibly one of the best dramas on TV right now. Also starring Richard Briers, Susan Hampshire, Alastair Mackenzie, Alexander Morton, Hamish Clark, and the lovely Dawn Steele. Don't despair - even if none of these names sound familiar to you, know that Julian Fellowes is involved and you'll enjoy this hilarious comedy about running an estate in Scotland called Glenbogle. (The series was loosely based on Sir Compton Mackenzie's "Highland Novels" and aired on the BBC. I currently watch it via Netflix.)
