Monday's Man: Rob James-Collier

Have you been watching Downton Abbey, which premiered on Masterpiece on PBS last Sunday?  If not, get thee to a computer and watch it on-line.  The handsome footman Thomas, played by Rob James-Collier, is waiting to be of service. 


It's an English consume drama with an Upstairs, Downstairs feel.  Like all English costume dramas, there's a gay angle.  This one involves Thomas the Footman and a Duke.  I won't reveal anything here, but these screen captures are from the first episode.   

Rob James-Collier is well known to British audiences for his role in the soap opera Coronation Street where he apparently has been known to take off his shirt.  

And even grow a beard.
