'Have you any detailed plans to commit suicide?' Madame is the kind psychiatric nurse in the University College Hospital, London. It's the third Tuesday in January, and the mental illness that has engulfed me since the start of November has stifled.

The ITV drama series debuted in 2010 and ran until 2015, with the first of the two films being released in 2019. However, just weeks after it was revealed that there would be a seventh series of the show after eight years, The Sun has announced that filming on a third film is also scheduled to begin. The same cast and behind-scenes crew are expected to return to Highclere Castle, Hampshire, where the new film will begin from where the second ended - in the late 1920s. The film, produced by Carnival Films, will see the complete cast revival, which is something that had been a logistical challenge due to its size.
