The final season of Downton Abbey kicks off tonight, but for anyone hoping to watch it on UTV Ireland, we've got some bad news for you.

The smash-hit period drama series will not be shown on UTV Ireland tonight and, honestly, we've no idea why. It'll be shown on ITV, if you've got the channels, but beyond that, no joy.

Naturally, this was met with furious anger on Twitter.

 

 

 

If you haven't got the channels, you can see Downton Abbey on Tuesday at 10PM on TV3. Otherwise, get one of your mates who's sound and into Downton to invite you over to watch it.
