Has anyone watched PBS' Northanger Abbey or BBC's The Aristocrats?

On youtube I found the entire Northanger Abbey and The Aristocrats.  Both of these miniseries are period like Dowton and looked good.

 

Thanks for any help or other suggestions you may have!

Try Poldark. Another PBS period piece on Amazon Prime. Very good ... apparently a hit in the UK after a slow start. I'm enjoying it. More like a good Soap.

I have the BBC Blu Ray on Northhanger Abbey.  It is a period performance from a while ago.  Entertaining with some dark secrets.

Are you talking about the 2015 Poldark or the 1975 Poldark? I've only seen the remake and am looking forward to season 2.

 

If you like period drama, I've really been enjoying Mercy Street on PBS. It's set in a hotel-turned-hospital in Virginia during the American Civil War.

2015 Poldark is fantastic!  Irish actor Aidan Turner, who portrays Ross Poldark, is tremendously talented.  Worth watching, for sure!
