Fic: 165 Eaton Place

It was my associate lost_spook who suggested a Whoniverse/Upstairs Downstairs crossover when I was waxing lyrical to her about the latter show on Livejournal recently. Mainly, though, it was an excuse to write more about Gerald and Harriet, the two WW1-era Torchwood agents seen in the ep “To the Last Man”. As for the nature of their opponent here, it’s probably worth mentioning that the minor Upstairs Downstairs character Lord Charles Gilmour was played by a pre-Who Anthony Ainley… Obviously, none of the television programmes and characters featured here belong to me in any way, shape or form.

Capital idea for a crossover! Well done; well done, indeed.

Unfortunately, I don't think I've seen Anthony Ainley in Upstairs, Downstairs (by the way, what do you think of it being resurrected with Rose in the 1930s?) but since my mom and sister love the show, I've definitely seen enough scenes to recognize the household.

Thank you, thank you very much, the idea though was lost_spook's!

Ainley's only in a handful of episodes at the most, a very minor character, but he naturally seems to jump out at the watching who fan, because, well, he's the Master... XD

But yeah, it's a good show, I think. I've only started watching it quite recently but have become drawn into it very quickly.
