Christmas is coming, and many television networks are starting to make changes to their programming, including the Catalan public broadcaster. There's a difference, however: while many networks are keeping their daily shows and using the time to give opportunities to substitute presenters and up-and-coming talent, TV3 has opted to forgo live broadcasts and rely on pre-recorded programming. These changes will begin this Monday and will last until after the Three Kings' Day on January 7th. The special schedule features music, film, comedy, theater, and some classic Christmas programs.

It took Julian Fellowes six television seasons and three feature films to bring the story of the Crawley family and the people who work for them to a close. The universe Downton Abbey It ends fifteen years after the premiere of the first season, covering a period in British history from 1912 to 1930, the year in which this, for the moment, definitive outcome takes place. Written by Fellowes with his usual skill in interweaving the private lives of the protagonists with the social and cultural context that surrounds them – the portrayal of divorced women as pariahs of the British upper classes of the time is especially relevant in this last film – the film opens with the Crawley family attending London Bitter sweet Christmas Coward.

In the British series Downton Abbey, which was broadcast on TV3 this summer, there were many stories in front of the camera, but also behind it. Just a few days after it was made public that Michelle Dockery, Lady Mary in fiction, is expecting her first child, it has also been learned that two of its protagonists have married, although neither of the interested parties has detailed when the ceremony was. These are Laura Carmichael, who in the series played Lady Edith, Mary's sister, and Michael C. Fox, who in the fiction played Andrew Parker, one of the members of the Grantham service. The actress has been part of the cast of the fiction since the beginning, while he joined the fifth season.

Michelle Dockery, well known for her role as Lady Mary in the series Downton Abbey, is pregnant with her first child. The British actress made it public during the premiere of Downton Abbey: The grand finale, the latest film in the period drama in which she returns to play her most famous character. The news became clear when Dockery, 43, appeared in a sky blue suit that emphasized her baby bump.

The commitment to British series has been TV3's most successful decision for this summer's programming. Television afternoons have been a necessary holiday tranquility. Prestigious productions ensure viewers don't feel abandoned during months that are often relegated to dull broadcasts that generate little interest.
