Downton Abbey Water Bottle Debacle

8/16/2014

 
Picture
By now you have probably seen this infamous photo that was accidentally released by Downton Abbey. A anachronistic plastic water bottle was left on the mantelpiece in this photo of Lord Grantham and Lady Edith.  It exploded all over the internet, because of course people to laugh at other people's mistakes!  


To the great credit of the cast and crew of Downton Abbey, they have used "Water-Bottle-Gate" as an opportunity to promote the charity WaterAid, an organization which works to help disadvantage areas obtain and sustain clean water and safe sanitation. A photo of the cast each holding a water bottle with a mock "uh-oh" look on their faces has been posted to the WaterAid web site to help raise awareness for a water cause that actually deserves attention.  Bravo, Downton Abbey.
