Seit seiner Kindheit erzählten Hopwood DePrees Vater und Großvater immer wieder Geschichten über die adeligen englischen Vorfahren seiner Familie, die im 18. Jahrhundert ihr großes Anwesen verlassen hatten, um nach Amerika auszuwandern. Nachdem beide kurz hintereinander versterben, sucht der Produzent und Schauspieler aus Hollywood Trost in der Ahnenforschung – und stößt tatsächlich auf das sagenhafte Familienschloss, das sogar seinen Namen trägt: Hopwood Hall in Middelton, England. Fasziniert von seiner Entdeckung macht sich Hopwood auf ins Vereinigte Königreich, besichtigt zum ersten Mal das große geschichtsträchtige, aber recht verfallene Herrenhaus und beschließt kurzerhand sein Downton Shabby – wie er es nennt – zu renovieren. Und bekommt tatkräftige Unterstützung von seinen liebenswerten, aber manchmal schrulligen Nachbarn – über den schroffen Hausmeister Bob bis hin zu den örtlichen Aristokraten, die ihn irgendwie als einen der ihren akzeptieren. Und während Hopwood alle möglichen Hürden, Pech und Pannen überwindet, lässt er Hollywood hinter sich und findet in England und in seinem Downton Shabby eine neue Heimat. Ein unterhaltsames Werk über unerwartete neue Lebenswege, selbstauferlegtem Renovierungswahnsinn und die eigenen Wurzeln.

HGTV meets Downton Abbey! A ready-for-TV story—with charm and humor in abundance—about a Los Angeles producer who moves to England to save his ancestral castle from ruin. “A true delight...In this marvelous debut, film producer DePree leaves the Hollywood hills to resurrect his British ancestral home, a 50,000-square-foot estate in the English countryside. Readers are in for a treat."--Publishers Weekly (starred review) Hollywood producer Hopwood DePree had been told as a boy that an ancestor—who he was named for—had left his family’s English castle in the 1700s to come to America. One night after some wine and a visit to Ancestry.com, Hopwood discovered a photograph of a magnificent English estate with a familiar name: Hopwood Hall, a 60-room, 600-year-old grand manor on 5,000 acres. And with that, Hopwood DePree’s life took an almost fairytale turn. Hopwood Hall, in northwest England, was indeed his family’s ancestral home. It had been occupied continuously by the Hopwood family for five centuries until the last remaining male heirs were killed in World War I. Since then, the Hall had fallen gradually into disrepair and was close to collapse. When Hopwood visited, he discovered trees growing in the chimneys, holes in the roof, and water sluicing down walls. It would take many millions to save the Hall—millions that Hopwood certainly didn’t have—but despite the fact that he lived in Los Angeles and had no construction skills, Hopwood DePree came to a conclusion: He would save Hopwood Hall. Downton Shabby—the name Hopwood coined for the glorious ruin—traces Hopwood DePree’s adventures as he gives up his life in Hollywood and moves permanently to England to save Hopwood Hall from ruin. But the task is far too big for one person, of course. Hopwood discovers that the Hall comes with an unforgettable cast of new neighbors he can call on for help—from the electrician whose mum had fond memories of working at the Hall to gruff caretaker Bob, and the local aristocrats who (sort of) come to accept Hopwood as one of their own. Together, as they navigate the trials and triumphs of trying to save an actual castle, Hopwood finds himself ever further from the security of his old life, but comes to realize that, actually, he’s never been closer to home.

It's 1924 and there have been many changes in the world of Downton Abbey since we were first welcomed by the family and their servants twelve years ago. A generation of men has been tragically lost at the front, there are once again children breathing new life into the great house, a chauffeur now sits at the Grantham dinner table and hems are up by several inches. Yet despite all of this unsettling upheaval, it is a comfort to find that many things at Downton remain largely unchanged. There are still parties to be thrown, summer fetes to be organised, menus to be planned and farms to be run. Join us, then, as we explore the seasonal events and celebrations of the great estate - Christmas, Easter, the debutante season, the hunt and more - and peer with us through the prism of the house as we learn more about the lives of our favourite characters, the actors who play them, and those who create the world we love so much. Packed full of exclusive new photography and brimming with traditional British recipes for each calendar month, such as Eton mess and sloe gin, this beautiful book takes us on a fascinating journey through a year in the life of Downton Abbey.

Nach unzähligen Flugmeilen im gehobenen Dienst ist Engel Karlchen am Ende seiner Kräfte. Seine Schützlinge haben ihn geschafft - besonders die Prominenten aus Funk und Fernsehen! Das hat ihn den letzten Nerv, oder besser die allerletzten Federn gekostet. Dabei hat er noch einige Jährchen bis zur wohlerflogenen Rente vor sich - und deshalb will die Flügelgesundheitskasse ihn ganz, ganz schnell wieder fit machen. Also ab ins himmlische Sanatorium! So landet er in der Anstalt St. Angelius, wo sein angekratztes Nervenkostüm von unfähigem Personal und noch unsinnigeren Therapien schon wieder aufs Äußerste strapaziert wird. Zu alledem passieren ständig komische Sachen und irgendwie scheint alles schiefzulaufen... Ach, ob Engel Karlchen je wieder fliegen kann?
