Very interesting video -- well done! What a remarkable story -- of the house and original owner and the architect. Very gracious of the current owners to allow filming in the house -- I appreciated how they have decorated the house and made it so livable for today -- great art collection, beautifully displayed. It goes so well with the outstanding architecture and general design of the house. Thanks for a terrific video.

Captivating! Not only because of its being a country house, nice enough in its own right, but also for the recreation of the life and lives of its joyful inhabitants and its creators. I could not stop watching and will undoubtedly call it up again when the love of my life and I need a bit of enjoyment together here in Utah, far from the Britain I also love.

Excellent. I especially liked the narration and the narrator. The The focus on history and architecture were enhanced by the introduction of people familiar with various aspects of Marshcourt’s existence.

I went to school there in the 1960s, as did most of my cousins. Maurice C A Wright (1907-1992) was the Founder and Headmaster of Marsh Court School

The only thing missing from this segment were the WW2 years: completely glossed over. I know that in England, many country homes housed children from the cities during the bombing of London and with Johnson's predilection for philanthropy I would have assumed that Marshcourt became such a place, especially with Johnson's death not occurring until 1949. Does anyone have information on this? Such a fascinating time period and even more fascinating a man. If the world today were built of "Johnnies," I have no doubt we'd be in a much better place.

Whoever is posting these episodes needs to refine the sequence and fluidity so it keeps showing each episode in proper order. This is a struggle to follow in terms of watching full series. Great shows. Messy presentations.

Bill Gates may not be a fitting analogy. generosity may not be a characteristic many people associate with Bill Gates, assuming of course that it didn't eventually yield an overwhelming return, or that genuine humanity played any role.
