What do you all think the plot might be for the upcoming movie? I'm just curious.
Though no doubt there are many ideas better than mine, here it goes:
Summer 1940. Of course, by then financial problems has let many of the staff go. But the climax is that the Abbey gets hit by a German bomber during the Blitz, and many of the key characters die. It would be a fitting, historically-grounded ending. For the survivors, I suppose it can be implied that they are absorbed into the common middle class. Better to go down with a bang than a whimper.
When was Carson on stage?,as it has been said that he had been at Downton since he was aboy?!

I always wondered what it would look like on the show if Tom Branson & Lady Mary Crawley got together romantically. I know this may seem controversial to some other fans, but Julian fellows himself and considered the pairing which I believe is saying something. Since we saw in the first downtown movie how badly same-sex relationships were treated, it made me wonder how sororate relationships were viewed at the time period of the show and first movie. For those of you who do not know, sororate relationships are when a man engages in romantic and/or sexual relations with the sister of his wife, usually after the death of his wife. Not to mention; The Deceased Wife's Sister's Marriage Act 1907 (7 Edw. 7. c. 47) was an Act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom, allowing a man to marry his dead wife's sister, was passed just four years before the time period when the series started in 1912! An ad for this fanfic will come soon. What do you guys think?
The Downton Exhibition page says Chicago, IL, but Skokie is actually a bit northwest of Chicago (about 20 min from the Chicago Loop by car).

Radio Times tends to be reliable, but may not completely trustworthy. What do you think?
Charles Grig was Mr Carson's dancing companion who Ms Hughes helped in Season 4 along with Isobel what do you think about her making such a bold act?
Anyone else have trouble with Fellowe’s having Anna arrested cause she stood near where Mr.,Green was killed? I find that premise “RIDICULOUS!” Police don’t arrest someone cause they were at the scene where someone was killed weeks LATER!
