Down reflects on 'Upstairs' legacy

In an era when news -- much of it bad -- travels at lightning speed, British actress Lesley-Anne Down says she thinks people still appreciate the slower pace and lighter tone of her classic drama series, "Upstairs Downstairs."

Jean Lyndsey Torren Marsh (born 1 July 1934) is an English actress, occasional screenwriter, and co-creator of the television series Upstairs, Downstairs and The House of Eliott.

Marsh received an Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series for her performance as Rose Buck in Upstairs, Downstairs in 1975. She has revived her role as Rose Buck for the BBC's 3-part revival of the series broadcast in December 2010.

Marsh was born in Stoke Newington, London, England, the daughter of Emmeline Susannah Nightingale Poppy (née Bexley), a bar employee and dresser for the theatre, and Henry Charles John Marsh, an outdoor maintenance man and printer's assistant.
