Yes, yet more of what has consistently been one of my least popular series of captions : Downton Domination! I’ve done loads of these so I’m not about to stop any time soon. Sorry (not sorry).

Some might say it’s not quite summer yet, so it’s a bit early to be putting him outside for the night, but she says the fresh air’s good for him. |

It’s the extras that really define how well a marriage will work. This one looks strong. |

Har de har har. Sorry about that. |

Always a bit embarrassing to meet an old flame, but she’s making the effort so you should too. |

You know, her relationship with Raoul would probably break down completely if you weren’t around. Well done you. |
![]() |
Nice of her to ask, but she really needn’t have. |
![]() |
Don’t judge her, OK? Let her judge you. |

Every hour is devotional time, surely? |

Technically, it works just as well when he’s not conscious, obviously, but she finds it harder to get motivated. |

Poor things, I hope they’re not too cold. Thank goodness they have coats, anyway. |

Oh dear. You had one job… Well, OK, you had several jobs if you count all the chores and you even had two jobs at a time during the spit-roasting bit but you know what I mean. |

It’s their ‘rattan’ anniversary. |
![]() |
Maybe she should. I hope she makes her mind up quickly rather than dithering about it… odd, because she’s usually very decisive. |
![]() |
It’s the way she tells them. |

I usually find that my main thought during ‘thinking time’ is ‘I think I can’t stand this much longer’ but my SO says it helps and I don’t like to contradict her. |
![]() |
I think she’s over-reacting. First rule of army life: ‘stuff goes missing’, amiright? |

They do other things too. But mainly that. |

I think you’re about to make two lovely ladies very happy. |

“Do you still need the ring gag?” is one of those questions that’s often quite hard to answer coherently. |

You’ll probably feel more comfortable doing what you’re told, too. Or experience discomfort if you don’t – which is basically the same thing. |

He used to think size doesn’t matter. He’s learning that it does. |
Mistress Eleise de Lacy, there. Speaking, as we were, of feeling weak in the knees…

There’ll be thin lines in lots of places quite soon. Cris-crossing, some of them, and that can be agony. |

I’m not a very spiritual person, myself, but my guess is that she will. |
Fans (there aren’t many) of the Downton Domination series here probably, like me, feel a subtle frisson when contemplating the nannies, chaste husbands and simply frightfully modern lesbians who feature in those tales. How can we simply enjoy tales of thrashings, chastity and forced homosexuality among this carefree inter-war generation, knowing the global catastrophe that was to overtake them in a few short years? I don’t know about you, but I for one cannot enjoy a good wank to femdom porn, in the presence of uncertainty about how it relates to the rise of global fascism and the collapse of the false hope of international order founded on the League of Nations.
So today we run the reel of history forward, so to speak, to see the heroism of ordinary women and men – mainly women, obviously – from the darkest days of the Blitz through to the triumph of democracy.
NB: before anyone points it out, yes I realise the same lovely lady appears in several different roles in these images. She is not simultaneously a British secret agent, a headmistress of a rather superior girls’ school and a gallant Frenchwoman risking all to shelter a downed British airman. She is an actress.

Actually, she found him quite easily. She’s clever like that. |

Hmmm… well, I suppose it makes a change from having to deal with uncomfortably large things. |

I think your educational prospects just became a lot brighter. No one forgets a really committed teacher. |

Remember: professional submission is not prostitution. He should consider himself more as a therapist, helping clients deal with feelings of anger. |
Right… ten more years then. The terrible teens begin here. How terrible can they be? Let’s find out, shall we?

He should be thankful. Not for anything in particular – just generally, all the time. |
![]() |
Regrettably, he won’t be perfect for long. She breaks things. |

It is a good one. Here’s another: what do you do if you see a blonde undressing, through an open window? Eight years hard labour! Do you get it? Maybe one day you will. |

Look at the lovely lady on the right, there. Rightly proud of her work. |

‘Something plausibly similar to male genitalia’ is the best some of us can hope for. |

Looks like all those caning fantasies are going to come true. |

Bad Pookie. Just imagine being close to thinking about disobeying her like that! On second thoughts, don’t imagine it… she wouldn’t approve. |
![]() |
If there was anything she could do to make you feel better, she’d do it – you know that, right? |
![]() |
Anyway, maybe some of the other patrons would like to skip the queue too. |

Ooh – the tips of her shoes look just like the inside of my chastity belt! Maybe we could strike up a conversation, now I know we’ve something in common. |
And, of course:
