And what's also very interesting is that he's married to the actress Imelda Staunton who played Lady Maud Bagshaw in the Downtown Abbey films, and who also played Queen Elizabeth II in the final two seasons of Netflix's 'The Crown', as well as playing the title character in the film Vera Drake and the evil Dolores Umbridge in two of the Harry Potter films.
This man freaks out about scratches on spoons no one can see. 😂 I'd doubt it. I think if Carson were on the Titanic, because of his pride, hed made the Captain leave and he would go down with the ship. 😂❤
There was a definite pep in his step along with the smile on his face the morning he returned to Downton as the butler in the movie. That scene was a pleasure to behold. Probably why they made it a trailer.
He did an excellent job but truthfully I don't think he was well cast. My concept of a butler is someone less blustery and much more refined. The butler that the dowager countess had seemed to be a much better fit.
That scene where hes alone at the house with little sybbie and then he brings her around the house cooing at her was so sweet and you could see the sadness in his eyes from losing Sybil.
How he helped Ms. Pattmore reveal that she was losing her sight, how he treated Mr. Lang, he's always come off to me as someone who is happy to give chances to people who generally do their best and take the job seriously. His treatment of Alfred and how that played alongside Mosely was great too.
@Debbie LL, as awkward as the conversation must have felt for people of that period (as talking about your personal/private wishes was a big no-no), watching again how Carson talks about Elsie to Mrs Patmore made me gush with "aww"s. "Tell her that in my eyes, she is beautiful. I love her, Mrs Patmore. I am happy and tickled and bursting with pride that she would agree to be my wife, and I want us to live as closely as two people can for the time that remains to us on earth." 😍
The scene where they hold hands on the beach and the moment when he says the “stuck with you” line are my two favourite moments in the entire show, no question. I love both of the characters and was so pleased that they finally got together. Mrs Patmore talking to Mr Carson about the terms of the marriage was also wonderful, especially when he pauses and then says “I love her, Mrs Patmore” 😭
Carson is so fantastic, difficult to believe he is acting. I find his relationship with Mary especially unique and so very sweet, she is the daughter he never had, he, the Grandfather she has never had, so special.
The beach scene is probably one of my favorite moments in downtown abbey and on television, the dialogue between him and Mrs. Hughes and Daisy's and Mrs. Pattmores glance was so beautiful and funny and romantic.
I grew up watching "Downton" with my parents in my teenage years, and Carson definitely had an impact on me. I now work with children as a full-time job, and every now and then I find that it's best that they "have a good little cry". If a boy or a girl wants to sit on my lap, cry, and feel sorry for them self, I say: let 'em! It's good for a kid to show every emotion available to them. In the meantime I will make sure that they know I will do everything I can to make them feel better again. But sometimes all they need is to "have a goo little cry", and then they are ready to face the world again.
I never watched when aired it's 6 seasons in America I have been binge watching last 3 days slowing down only because I don't want to watch last 7 episodes quickly, I've grown to love these characters, ALL of them.. Even the Movie wasn't enough and I saw it twice, please bring the series back, I can't get enough
Sad it's over but try searching for Princess Mary on google. The rabbit hole of Downton period real history is great. I went from her to the Boer War, Russian revolution, Mrs Simpson and back in 10 minutes.
That story about Mary when she was 5 he tells, you can see the sentimentality, love and joy in his eyes like she was his own granddaughter 🥺 He may be stuck in the past, unable to cope with change, a slightly heavy handed head butler, but in the end he loves the Grantham's and Crawley's like they were his own family and thats all one needs in the end.
What a lovely relationship of comraderie and affection between Mr. Carson, Mrs. Hughes, and Mrs. Pattmore that they could be there for each other with health crises and personal matters.
Thank you Downton Abbey for all the drama and love you have given me. I adore the movie and I saw it twice! I absolutely love every character in the show. I love you!
Jim Carter’s character as Mr. Carson is such an iconic and AMAZING play! I love his sense of drama, sass, and loyalty to the family and servants. No one could have EVER played a better role! Jim Carter is a genuine ICON!!! Sending love to you Mr. Carter from Kentucky, USA! 💕
It is quite difficult in real life today to find peoples with Integrity, honesty, mindful for details as Mr. Carson. It is also difficult to get a person with extreme humbleness and generosity as Mrs. Hughes. They finally make a perfect couple. We might be surprised for our generation such peoples are fictitious...but not in those good old times. Much love from Ethiopia 🇪🇹 🇪🇹❤♥ Mr. Carson!
The complete perfection in the choices made of every cast member in this series is nothing short of miraculous and made Downton Abbey the award winning hit that it is. I’ve never been so impatient as when waiting for the the next episode from week to week and doubt that I ever will again.
Mr. Carson and Lady Violet Crawley should have their own show/podcast! Spilling all of the tea with the shade only possible from true and proper English folks! Sending love from Kentucky USA! ❤️
Well, Dame Maggie is known to be friends with Imelda Staunton, (as much as their acting roles together have often shown them as opposites - insert Harry Potter), who happens to be Jim's wife.
Carson and Mrs Hughes’ relationship was so lovely. The warts and all scene had me blubbing I was so happy. And the convo between Mrs Patmore and Carson was both hilarious and touching. It reminded me of my grandparents lol
Ive never watched downton so I don't know who is who or what is going on but the line "and Madge has found a job in a shop" made me laugh very loudly. Fantastically delivered.
You should watch. I love a lot of fantastic shows, but if I could only watch one series for the rest of my life I could watch Downtown Abby on repeat till I die Beautiful show, incredible world building, amazing characters. Top production!
Yehhh Bates too... who had made extraordinary sacrifice for the house and Lady Marry but no one knows it. A man of few words and extremely trustworthy.
When they cast Jim Carter for this role, it was dead on. No one could have played this part better.
And what's also very interesting is that he's married to the actress Imelda Staunton who played Lady Maud Bagshaw in the Downtown Abbey films, and who also played Queen Elizabeth II in the final two seasons of Netflix's 'The Crown', as well as playing the title character in the film Vera Drake and the evil Dolores Umbridge in two of the Harry Potter films.
Jim's voice is like warm caramel. I love to hear him speak 😊
The Titanic could sink and Mr Carson would still make me feel like everything is under control with a strategic plan in place.
This man freaks out about scratches on spoons no one can see. 😂 I'd doubt it. I think if Carson were on the Titanic, because of his pride, hed made the Captain leave and he would go down with the ship. 😂❤
That would be Mrs Hughes for me
It did, and it was.
Watch the 1st episode. IT DID
Funny 🤣
Flawless casting all around, but Jim Carter was born to play the butler of a distinguished house.
There was a definite pep in his step along with the smile on his face the morning he returned to Downton as the butler in the movie. That scene was a pleasure to behold. Probably why they made it a trailer.
I loved his character the most. I believe if “a man called ove” were to be adapted to film, Jim Carter would be perfect for “ove” role too
He did an excellent job but truthfully I don't think he was well cast. My concept of a butler is someone less blustery and much more refined. The butler that the dowager countess had seemed to be a much better fit.
That scene where hes alone at the house with little sybbie and then he brings her around the house cooing at her was so sweet and you could see the sadness in his eyes from losing Sybil.
Ikr! He gets all soft with the babes and the girls of the house🥰especially Mary🥺🥺
I absolutely love that Scene, it's so Beautiful
I still cannot believe just how much I enjoyed Downton Abbey, each and every character.
Neither can I, going by your username....
My favourite thing is when Carson teaches Alfred the difference between the silverware. He's like a proud papa.
How he helped Ms. Pattmore reveal that she was losing her sight, how he treated Mr. Lang, he's always come off to me as someone who is happy to give chances to people who generally do their best and take the job seriously. His treatment of Alfred and how that played alongside Mosely was great too.
Discussing the wife duties with Ms Patmor really got me 😂😂😂
only Carson could make "I do want to be stuck with you" the most romantic thing i've ever heard 💘
@Debbie LL, as awkward as the conversation must have felt for people of that period (as talking about your personal/private wishes was a big no-no), watching again how Carson talks about Elsie to Mrs Patmore made me gush with "aww"s.

It was. Wasn’t it?
Read this as he said that right
As for me, (maybe because I was in my late 50's when I watched this) the most endearing couple in the series.
Only James Earl Jones has a more commanding voice - well done Jim Carter. You made Downton fun to watch.
to me they are completely head on head :) Love their voices!
Carson is one of the center pieces of the series! Loved Carter’s portrayal. Wonderful work!
Poor Mrs Patmore
YES!!! No one could have ever played this character any better! Mr. Carter is a genuine icon!

Mr Carson and Mrs Hughes were the mom and dad of downstairs Downton.
I always cry happy tears when he's singing that she's well.
Carson is so fantastic, difficult to believe he is acting. I find his relationship with Mary especially unique and so very sweet, she is the daughter he never had, he, the Grandfather she has never had, so special.
Jim Carter played Carson so well I forgot Carson was a fictional character.
"You keep telling me is permanent. But, from where I'm sitting, is looking less permanent... By the minute". Loved it
The beach scene is probably one of my favorite moments in downtown abbey and on television, the dialogue between him and Mrs. Hughes and Daisy's and Mrs. Pattmores glance was so beautiful and funny and romantic.
Absolutely, it's one of the best scenes
Priceless dialogue between Mrs Patmore and Mr Carson...
So awkward yet wholesome.
Oh wait I thought you were referring to the one about him and Mrs. Hughes having a "full marriage", but that one about frolicking was great too.
@@hollisjo4023 k
They were so perfect for each other. She had him wrapped around her little finger all the time. they were a good match in the series.

I bet the children like you the best. 🥰
Mr Carson is really a romantic, big teddy bear deep down. Happy he and Mrs Hughes found each other. 🧡
He has such a lovely bellowing voice
I'm tickled by the thought of Carson and Mrs Hughes living like millennials eating avocado toast every night. 😂
Mr. Carson is not an AIR HEAD OR BRAIN DEAD, THIS GENERATION IS F**KED IN THE HEAD FOR 2019 DUMB ASS DEMOCRATIC'S
@@trudifruty6078 mmm avocado toast
Your rant is hilarious!

uKET LIFE AND TIMES oh my I feel exactly the same way! Trying to slow down watching the show to make it last longer, but very hard to do!
Sad it's over but try searching for Princess Mary on google. The rabbit hole of Downton period real history is great. I went from her to the Boer War, Russian revolution, Mrs Simpson and back in 10 minutes.
Give it time and don't rush on it...Cherish it like a sweet candy slowly. It will take you through the summer.
Waiting on Downton Abbey 2 in March.
I binged watched the entire series in 5 days with regular office too..my eyes burnt but I was in love with all characters..
That story about Mary when she was 5 he tells, you can see the sentimentality, love and joy in his eyes like she was his own granddaughter 🥺
He may be stuck in the past, unable to cope with change, a slightly heavy handed head butler, but in the end he loves the Grantham's and Crawley's like they were his own family and thats all one needs in the end.
Funny thing that story always reminds me of my grandfather and me
"TAKE STEPS MR. MOSELEY, TAKE, STEPS" after Mr. Moseley dyed his hair was by far my favorite line.
Carson. One man, one name, the legend
I could sit and listen to this man talk about anything for hours on end and never get bored.
4:03 "Of course if Mrs. Padmore wants to spend her frolicking with prostitutes.." "Do I look like a frolicker?!"
Ha ha ha ha! Cracks me up every time.
His voice 💖💖💖 I could listen to him for hours
And Imelda gets to hear his voice whenever she wants to. How fortunate is she?
What a lovely relationship of comraderie and affection between Mr. Carson, Mrs. Hughes, and Mrs. Pattmore that they could be there for each other with health crises and personal matters.
I love Jim carter’ rich deep voice
Beautiful voice he has.

I recently watched this with my mother, she said that Carson "is so cute" 😂😂😂 you have no idea how unlike her that is

We might be surprised for our generation such peoples are fictitious...but not in those good old times. Much love from Ethiopia 🇪🇹 🇪🇹❤♥ Mr. Carson!
Every minute is priceless. I just have to watch it over and over.
When Carson proposed to Mrs Hughes, I screamed with happiness
Carson was so old fashioned, but kind and like a favorite uncle.
Jim Carter really impersonates a devoted Victorian upper servant. Amazing acting!
acting like a stuff shirt bastard hardly requires effort
@@taroman7100 well, no, it requires quite some effort as he is much more than the upper servant
Downton Abbey wasn’t set in Victorian times
@@pedanticradiator1491 perhaps not, but wouldn't you class Carson as a Victorian man?
@@pedanticradiator1491 I remember Mrs Hughes having to tell Carson, "It isn't 1876 anymore" to which he says "Unfortunately!"
I have loved him ever since Black Beauty
Aww Black Beauty...now there's a blast from the past. I loved that show..
I've forgotten how great this series was. An all time great show! I loved the movie and I was finally able to get my husband to watch the show!
"A Hurrah for intolerance on both sides."
the fact that he says I when talking about Carson is more than heart warming
The complete perfection in the choices made of every cast member in this series is nothing short of miraculous and made Downton Abbey the award winning hit that it is. I’ve never been so impatient as when waiting for the the next episode from week to week and doubt that I ever will again.
Carson is a cross between that strict boss your slightly scared of and that kind hearted gruff uncle that you love!
Carson, by far, is the most endearing and adorable character. He’s just so cute. Mr. Bates is a close second.
I'm in love with Downton! Thank you so much! 😍❤️😍
I absolutely love Carson he's such a sweetheart.
I just binged this entire series watching every morning before work. Carson and Ms Pattmore were my favorites
I watch Downton Abby constantly. Doesn't matter which episode I find....I just start watching again.
I want him to read me bedtime stories. His voice is so soothing.
Me too then he can eat me out afterwards.
That voice. Oh my...
Mr. Carson and Lady Violet Crawley should have their own show/podcast! Spilling all of the tea with the shade only possible from true and proper English folks!

Hahaha that is genius!!

When hes sad, like when is eyebrows fall, something about it is so profoundly sad, I dont know why but it always hits different
"Yes. Thats it. I think we've got there." XD
Jim Carter is a fantastic actor. One of the best characters in the show. I love his relationship with Mrs Hughes. The most touching pair ever.
gross
@@taroman7100 you are gross.
@@MariaP1980 never mind her, she just wants to argue for the sake of arguing
@@sts1243 I think you are right.
Jim Carter and his wife Imelda Staunton are acting royalty. They are both superb actors and in this role especially, Jim is perfect.
Love Carson and Mary's relationship
Me too! Charming! And I think they need each other. I think he needs her and she needs him, do you?
The Downton Show yes
❤Jim Carter : "Mr. Carson" in 'Downton Abbey'❣️
I love Carson, he s really fantastic and person with great heart
I like Carson and Mrs Hughes such a cute older couple
I love listening to his voice
He and Violet were my favorite characters!
I adore him soooo much. My lovable snobbish Charlie ❤️
Love Carson & Mrs. Hughes and her incredible sense of humor!
What a great voice!!!
THERE IS ONLY ONE MR. CARSON. NO ONE ELSE WILL DO. FINE, FINE ACTING 😊
Série magnifique avec des acteurs formidables.
This made me cry..❤️
I had a BIG GRIN this whole video! !
Same!
Ive never watched downton so I don't know who is who or what is going on but the line "and Madge has found a job in a shop" made me laugh very loudly. Fantastically delivered.

I love when Alfred and Jimmy are just sitting doing nothing, and when Carson Coughs they start Polishing the Silverware lol
Carson and Bates are my favorite characters.
Yehhh Bates too... who had made extraordinary sacrifice for the house and Lady Marry but no one knows it. A man of few words and extremely trustworthy.
I love the fact that he’s talking in character, awesome.
Mrs. Patmore's "Yes, that's it. I think we've got there. " has to be the funniest line in this whole 18 minute clip, possible in the whole series.
Mr.Carson, love your character!
when I started watching downton,I didn't realize I was going to fall in love with Carter's Carson,the heart and soul of the program
That perfect voice💜
Carson has definitely got the stuff of a first footman and if called upon could dash away with a smoothing iron.
ALL the Downton Abbey Cast was/is Perfect 👍
I loved this charater , he was like a father to everyone, and was kind if old fashioned in his own way!!!☘🐾
Especially to Mary
I love Mr.Carson! I want a father figure like him.
Love Mrs Patmore, wish she was my cook!!!
My favorite couple!
Love, love, love this show!
Loved him in Shakespeare in Love.
I did love this storyline. Carson had to let go of his antiquated ideas, and it was so hard for him. He was such a stalwart for the family.
Carson is the King Downton Abbey
He's the true ruler
One of my favorite dramas
I love Carson!
I never laughed so hard as I did at the conversation between mrs patmore & carson and when his face changes with realization.
What pisses me off is, its so hard to figure out how to pay Amazon to watch this show!
Mr. Carson is one lovable character. Very victorian proper when it comes to being the butler and very sweet to the girls especially Mary.
He was brilliant, as the rest.
