I was appalled when the dinner discussion turned to the subject of staff stealing, whilst the young apprentice butler looked on. The hostess apparentlly saw no problem having such conversation in front of her own staff but it was cringeworthy and unthinking at best.

I remember when I was eighteen years old the lady of the house insisted I clean the floors on my hands and needs in order to get every crevice of the kitchen floor. I was to clean twice and rinse once and repeat, then she would inspect, and I would repeat this ritual on each of the tile floors including the bathroom. Needless to say, I finished college and quickly received a position as a legal secretary with no scrubbing involved .... thank you very much.

Everything Lady Campbell says about the new rich is true.

I also worked for a newly made multi-millionaire. What a f***er!!!! Nasty, impatient and treated his lovely staff like dirt.

With the aim of selling him off into slavery, the pirate captain asked what sort of work he was good at. After careful consideration, The Cynic replied that he did not recall ever being good at any sort of work - but, he added, he was rather skilled at ordering people about. By the time they landed at the nearest slave-market port several days later, the difficult old man had made the pirates’ lives so miserable that, despairing of him ever fetching them a profit, they released him. The long-suffering pirates even gave him the money for his return fare home - if he promised to make the sea voyage on board the ship of their most hated rival...

Im a retired Nurse so I understand how staff feel but we are there to serve and care for them. Let them say what they want it's there home and at the end of the day I go home and forget all about it.

Olga Romanoffs personality is amazing.. Such charm and grace while at the same time so down to earth. Lovely, just lovely.

Lady Campbell reminds me a bit of Eurydice Colette Clytemnestra Dido Bathsheba Rabelais Patricia Cocteau "Patsy" Stone 😂😂😂

My family were never royalty, nor were they particularly well off. In fact, I recall my great grandmother living in a small, terraced street, upstairs flat. 2 bedrooms. Nothing spectacular. In that small flat she had a butler, Smithy, and a Housekeeper, Cathy to take care of her. Of course she was very old by then, but after discovering that I was her great grandson (I was four years old and she had asked as I stood at the bottom of her bed, 'And who are you?'), she rang her little bell for something and said, 'You know, Duncan, you just can't get the staff, these days!'.

OMG hilariously delightful!

I would love to work in one of these houses. If I lived in you wouldn’t have to pay me much at all. I love all of the traditions.

The viewing public's nostalgia for Upstairs Downstairs and Downton Abbey doesn't quite make the transition in the real world. I commend all the participants for their courage in giving us a peep into their real lives.

Such pompous individuals. Not deserving of someone’s dedication of an entire lifetime

I have always wanted a Gardner and a house keeper/cook. It would be nice company. And life would have help. I am poor so not going to be able to make that dream come true. I had a grandma who I used to help in her garden. She had a huge vegetables garden and fruit orchard. And that was her job her employer treated her like she was his mother and did as he was told and looked after her till her death.

This is SO absurd........Not sure how much rudeness I can endure

Very cursory bit on the ironing of a newspaper. A newspaper was not just ironed after use, but first thing before use, every page both front and back, to set the cheap ink in order to avoid blackened fingers. Really can't get adequate help these days!

How rude to discuss thieving staff in front of staff.

butler-ing is ridiculous in 21st century - the conversation at the table about "the stuff" and nouveau riche was DISGUSTING ... those pompous people do think they are classy .... repulsive

What an admirable young man. It's refreshing to see someone develop such a strong opinion & actually stick by it

"Wakefield" is a piece of work.

Butlers are usually MUCH BETTER than the people they work for... not least because they are hired for their stellar qualities. Employers don't necessarily have those, nor need they provide recommendations. (!)

"Be the Better Me", may indeed be the necessary qualifications.

It amazes me how some of these people cling to their delusion that they are somehow part of a "ruling elite". These people try desperately to keep up appearances but it is clear to see that money is somewhat tighter than they would care to acknowledge. Great fortunes are almost always new fortunes, so these old-moneyed types often resort to pretense and snobbery when they can't keep up with the conspicuous lifestyles of those 'ghastly' newly rich parvenus.

"These people" do not fancy themselves part of the "ruling elite". They know only too well that fortune lasts very few generations, and influence perhaps a little longer. Theirs is no pretense or snobbery. They do have some of the vestiges of past grandeur, a house, some jewelry, a way of speaking and knowing when to speak and of what, but mostly some soupçon of life as it was without the wherewithal to live it. They are the downwardly mobile, the nouveaux pauvres, conservators of historic values and perhaps refinement, the living memory of family and cultural histories. New people and new money do not have this knowledge and these associations; they depend upon these has-beens to be examples of their new stations in society, to teach them the values, behavior, and refinement, the folkway essential to their settling into their newly acquired status. In a word, they embody the "class" to which the newcomers aspire, and they know that they have value only to the extent they share what they are and know. Otherwise, they will recede to the fringes of humanity.

Though some of the others are being used for obvious things like weddings etc, even hotels like in the instance of Swinton Park, though the Earl of Swinton moved out of there.

Anyone who expects staff at minimum wage that will give everything they have got blindly working is insane. People don’t want to work for pittance to do repetitive hard labour. If you want staff pay them over the minimum wage or give them advantages the average person cannot get (invited to events, gifts, free training, access to things that are inaccessible etc.).

I don't mind services when you don't have the time to do it yourself, but it doesn't look like these people are short on time.

You can't get the staff because you're only paying $0.04 and a chicken why don't they pay a decent fairprice wage that somebody could live on and they will have plenty of people

Lady Coilin Campbell, don't you know it is bad form to tap your glass with a silverware piece? I guess she married into the role.

Great kid. Well done stiking up for the animals and staying true to his values.

Lady Campbell is a phoney. She names herself after her former husband called Colin Campbell, She was only married to him for one year in the seventies. She was born in Jamaica and lives in a large house which she passes off as a castle. She pretends to be aristocratic, but you can see by the friends she has that she is just a another wannabe with delusions of grandeur.England if full of similar people. That is why they cannot afford to pay employees above minimum wage . Rob

“”Don’t believe anything they say at interwiew, it all lies “”kkkkkkkkkk so true

Most have never worked in their life so do not understand what the “title”of a job means. Just expect everyone does everything and be happy for the privilege. As someone pointed out they are “asset rich money poor” so they are always trying to impress to create an air of being rich and an invitation to an occasion to be “seen” as rich. Princess Olga says her gardener told her he would not lend his tools but here he is lending his tools to Susan to do an edge. What did she expect, someone run to the shop and buy one for her to use for a couple of minutes. Lady Campbell is not a lady she is not entitled. Pompous prat.
