Why Couldn’t It Have Been Bates?

Kelly and Tom sob their way through this emotional recap of Downton Abbey S3:E5, possibly one of the best episodes of the show to date.  The tearful twosome observe Daisy’s rapid transformation into Mrs. Patmore, Junior; welcome converts to the Church of Shank Bates; roll their eyes at the wacky exploits of Ethel in the kitchen; reveal who, in fact, is the walrus; marvel anew at the sheer awesomeness of Dame Maggie Smith, and wish that Thomas would find his own clock to wind.  Kelly demands a pie TARDIS, Tom finds a ridiculous description of medicinal history, and both of them make an unacceptable number of references to Macbeth. Also, once again, HERE BE CRYNG, so keep a hankie handy.
