Alexandria Library to Host 'Downton Abbey' Marathon

Beatley Library will screen Season 3 of the hit British period drama on Jan. 2 and Jan. 3.

If you missed the third season of “Downton Abbey” or want to watch it for a second (or perhaps third?) time, Beatley Central Library is hosting a marathon viewing of the British period drama in early 2014.

Set in the fictional Yorkshire country estate of Downton Abbey, the show has attracted a huge following in the United States and is preparing to air its fourth season on PBS in January. The library is airing Season 3 just before Season 4, which has already aired in the United Kingdom, runs in the United States beginning Jan. 5.

The “Downton Abbey” marathon will run from 1 to 5 p.m. Jan. 2 and Jan. 3 at Beatley Central Library.
