BBC Entertainment (DStv 120) can't yet say when South African viewers will get to see the 3rd season of the British drama hit Downton Abbey which started in Britain last night and which had 34,6% of all TV set switched on in the United Kingdom, turned on to Downton Abbey on ITV.
Downton Abbey, undeniably the best TV drama South African viewers will see all this year - quickly unspooled on South African television this year on BBC Entertainment with both the first season and the second season which recently started.
Plans for the 3rd series of Downton Abbey are still to be confirmed," I'm told.
BBC Entertainment would do well to keep up the momentum and show the 3rd series of Downton Abbey as quickly as possible in South Africa, or in conjunction with the American broadcasting schedule if BBC Worldwide wants to help grow and maintain South African viewership figures by piggybacking on the international hype while the show is on in the UK and/or America.
