In the latest episode of Downtown Abbey, Lord Grantham suffers a burst ulcer and projectile vomits all over the dinner table. The fans all over Britain are left shocked after witnessing the gruesome episode.
TV presenter Lorraine Kelly and TOWIE's Ferne McCann compared the ITV period drama to a string of grisly horror films including Alien, Saw and the Exorcist. While most viewers were left horrified, some saw the funny side of things.
Property expert and TV star Kirstie Allsopp, 44, joked, “How on earth did they all keep a straight face?!! #Downton Abbey', alongside some laughing emojis. The reaction came after the Earl of Grantham took to his feet to declare he felt unwell during a dinner party to discuss the future of the local hospital.”
