Examples of upstairs in a Sentence

1. Jim Carter:

   Filming the film which we finished in November, that was just like going back to the TV series. We all knew each other. As soon as Lady Carnarvon put Lady Carnarvon costume on, Lady Carnarvon're back in character really, but it was a slightly thinner experience because I don't think for instance the kitchen staff met any of the upstairs staff, or hardly any of them because it was... quicker, it was 10 weeks instead of six months.

2. Mary Saladino:

   It’s like your power goes off in your house and you have a backup generator, but your backup generator isn’t working so well, we see the disease manifest at moments when Henry’s tank is running low. It could be when he’s too hot, tired from climbing upstairs, or he’s hungry or his brain was working too hard during therapy.

3. Joe Biden:

   As we walked out of the room and walked upstairs, I said - I told him my opinion that I thought he should go, but follow his own instincts, i never... say what I think finally until I go up in the Oval( Office) with him alone.

4. Kurt Russell:

   We eventually found our way upstairs looking at imaginary furniture and we were in the imaginary bedroom now and we are realistically having sex when the police walked in, we had to break into the place to get in so the next thing I see is a flashlight and Goldie and I are like what? It was bizarre and weird. We were told to go get a hotel room which we did. That was our first date. It was a lot of fun I can’t believe it was a long time ago.

5. Dorothy Marcic:

   I’ve shared the medical records withtwo psychiatrists and three psych nurses, they all said there’s no proof at all that she was psychotic. She never showed any symptoms of it and nobody ever suspected of it. And if you look at her version of what happened that night, they were arguing, he was abusive and she went into a psychotic state and pulled the trigger. The problem is that they were upstairs and his guns were downstairs. He had a number of weapons because he was a former police officer.
