matthew: *_complains about having to marry the eldest_*
also matthew when mary walks in: "i take it back"
top comment is that he was 👁👄👁 the entire scene and it so accurate like-
I love how at the end she's literally looking down on him from her high horse
I hadn't thought of it in those terms; brilliant catch! :)
Great observation!
Nice
She's on another level
Very good catch. I noticed also that, when it all ended, Poor Edith outranked everyone, even her father, and Mary wound up marrying (again, literally) a used car salesman.
I love how Matthew never even saw her coming, his face literally said “👁👄👁” when she walked in 😂😂
Exactly 👍
Dajteprevodnasrpski
Great show and acting.
His face gets me every time 😂😂
@@dinadevic6637 I don’t speak Serbian… 😂
MY GODNESS! can his eyes be more beautiful or what?
I know, they are beautiful.
Watching this, I literally said out loud, "God his eyes!". Love Dan Stevens beautiful man and a beautiful soul
@parrotprodigy productions yes. very much so
They draw me into his soul each and every time I see them. Beautiful!!
In our house we just call him blue-eyes
Matthew Crawley is one of the most endearing characters ever to grace a TV series. Such a fine young man. Who wouldn't love to have him as a friend, a brother, a husband, a father? Beautifully portrayed by Dan Stevens.
AGREED .. and beautifully said.
Also very dumb to love a nasty woman like Mary who would be mean to Edith even in front of Matthew and he would still be like.. I love you.. instead of telling Mary to behave herself. He was her enabler.
@@desertrose00 he was awestruck by Mary who was a beautiful high class girl he probably had never met before. Class difference is a big reason. It helps that Mary is beautiful, stylish and smart. Men usually see that first and when he found out how she interacted in her family. It would probably be too late. He was either blinded by love or chose not to see. But he is a good man. There is a consistent message of being or finding “a good kind man” in this show. A good man/woman is a school. That’s how Mary becomes a better person refined by the relationship. That’s what makes this show more interesting than others as a lot of shows nowadays are typically bad man/good woman as protagonists and in reality there are more good women than good men.
@@desertrose00 bro , 95 % of the watchers absolutely adore mary , including me.
Easy on the eyes and a good actor, he can play any role.
Mary was furious when she strode in. Her smirk says it all. And Matthew was completely smitten. The very definition of love at first sight. Then, he shook his head, befuddled when he saw Mary cutting the sharp retort and go, and then he was like, 'Good heavens, what have I done?'
This reminds me a bit of Elizabeth Bennett and Mr. Darcy's first meeting in Pride and Prejudice.
Nina SAME
siiiiii p y p
I agree with you
With her being Darcy?:P
It's true, I remember such scene in pride and prejudice...
He was smitten the moment he laid eyes on her. XD
So true..
Kelaiah01 Oh yes!
Facts
He was so dumb on leaving the show. Plot would've been better had he been alive.
I always like love at first sight hahaha
He just met ''one of the daughters'' and found out she's a beauty, as sharp as a razor and NOT deaf..
Why would he date his cousin though
@@helenarichard People used to marry 1st cousins and 3rd cousins centuries ago, if they couldn't find anyone else good enough then the cousin would do. But not marry 2nd cousins because it meant their children could have deformities.
@@helenarichard she is his third cousin and third cousin marriage is normal
I think it’s 4th cousin actually
What do you mean by and not deaf. There was nothing wrong with her hearing from what i saw
He regretted those words as soon as Mary walked in 🤣 oh sweet Matthew 🤣🥰
I think Sybil had beautiful blue eyes and a gentle face, Edith had pretty blonde hair and a very regal beauty and Mary was the very definition of poise and elegance with her striking dark eyes and hair and alabaster skin.
I think that description is spot-on.
Yeah, Mary was the epitome of the Rich Bitch
I hated Edith
BeanKeeper She clearly doesn’t
Very well put!
Mary: *roasts him*
Matthew: *falls in love*
Matthew's response to seeing Mary was PRICELESS!!
Oh dear, I can just imagine how offended Mary was when he said that, specially with how conceited she was in the first season. The fact that a middle class lawyer thought that he was above marrying her... You can see the shock when she walks in
Upper middle class lawyer... (lol)
@@weedermann But that's what he was...
She probably never was offended. She was upset that she would inherit anything
I remember a brief exchange between Mary and Mr Pamuk(?) that made me laugh.
Marriage was mentioned in a very offhand way.
Mary: My family would never allow such a marriage.
Mr P: Nor mine.
Mary:
He was in love with her that moment he saw her. Seriously, they should have never continued without him.
but she didn't deserve him
she refused him many times and when she couldn't have him, then she falls in love with him? wtf
tsevca It was a great show right to the end and I’m also looking forward to seeing the film later this year. Matthew and Mary were very cute together but I loved Henry!
@@madapigi1 People have the tendency to be very harsh to Mary. I see it differently. If it was a contemporary series and she refused him to work on her career, people would praise her for being a strong female character that puts herself before any man. She would be a role model. But that is exactly what she did. For women in her position, their social status was their career. The only career they were allowed to have. And she was very independent, femminist character in her own way. More than her sisters, despite the series not showing it very evidently. That's why she was my favorite, because she had no naive dreams like her sisters, she was very realistic. Being the law fair, she would inherit her father's title and she knew she would do well, but here comes a stranger taking her family's inheritance (Matthew wasn't happy about it, but still came and took his place, so from what she knew, it could have been just playing nice guy.) and the only way for her to stay in her own home was to marry the guy, who was just months before far beneath her. For a strong woman like her it was humiliating. Accepting him with open mind would realisticly never happen. And marrying him without being the heir would mean giving up everything she worked for her entire life (Those women built their social careers from before being even born). She didn't refuse him absolutely, she needed time to think it over, but he wanted her to decide immediately. She was a realist and just like I can't picture myself giving up my job and leave everything to be some man's wife in 3rd world country, that decision was equally difficult. Just because she had the brains to think about it before hastily saying yes and then not being able to live like that, that doesn't mean she didn't love him enough or deserve him.
@@tsevca thank you! Finally! Sybil might have been the one with more liberal ideology (though I hate how they killed her off without having her achieve something) and Edith might have had the most feminist arc, but Mary was the more strong and independent one, right from the start. I don't get most Mary criticisms, especially in the early seasons (the last season I felt that they kind of butchered her character to give Edith a lift, though why they couldn't have evolved the relationship between the sisters and have them work together, instead of the mess we got, I'll never know).
@@QuarterLifeCrises You know why the criticism? Because people are generally unable to judge historical shows with any consideration to the setting. They always only see it from the modern point of view. It's almost a new way to judge the quality. The better the authors capture the views of that period, the angrier reactions.
That look of fright on his face when he first saw her...
That's what falling in love looks like.
I absolutely love the look she shot him after saying she "didn't want to push in"!
3:26 (In David Attenborough voice) “It was at this point that the human male knew he fell to his own stupidity”
he probably was thinking the daughters were ugly, then he saw her and was made speechless by her beauty. lol.
more her night class and elegance I'd say
I'll never ever ever going to get over the shock of losing Matthew 💔
Matthew (Dan Stevens) was the perfect choice of the role. He's so beautiful man from head to foot. And his eyes are killing his fans. Everything in him is PERFECT.
He looks a bit like a young Donald Trump.
@Quaker 2019 Actually it’s not.
@Quaker 2019 I’m saying he physically looks like the D. 😆 End of Conversion.
Unfortunetly he changed now
Got a bit of a slouchy posture. Other than that, yes, he’s gorgeous.
Matthew was seriously smitten by Mary's coldness. Honestly, everyone needs someone like him in their lives!
One of my fav scenes. Matthew’s mouth could not shut - he had a crush on Mary at first glance
'I won't let them change me' - Matthew and Tom before they both changed.
Elizabeth McGovern was an impeccable choice for Cora -- innocent, yet no one's fool.
@rach d Because previous generations basically "sat" on their money or wasted it to such a degree presumbly drinking/gambling that estates simliar to fictional Downton Abbey fell into ruins of sort. So that around 1870s at the earliest American heiress were travelling to England to marry into noble households. That money is what recused somewhat estates like Downton
@rach d I was talking about BEFORE WWI hence why Robert had to marry Cora.
Her accent drives me crazy.
she's a terrible actress. by far the worst on the show. mosely is more believable than her
I love how Matthew can be stubbornly self-righteous at times, just like his mother and Mary can really strike a blow to that.
He's like "Oh she's not bad looking at all!"
He was awestruck by her beauty
“We don’t need a butler or a valet!....”
“We’ve always gotten by with a cook and a maid!”
Lmao ok bruh yeah
Sun Bull but there’s a huge difference .
Yeah I found that ironic and hilarious!
3:14 was the moment he fell in love with her. You can see how his eyes just soften and relent to her. Not to mention that beautiful touch of the piano there, that lasted for just a moment. He saw stars. _Stars._
Mary is so lovely here.
That look Matthew had when she said "I wouldn't want to push in"
Omg...Her Riding Clothes!! Beautifully done.
Dojocho Hear!! Hear!!
Little bit of a mistake with the skirt, though - the actress is clearly wearing a sidesaddle *apron* at 3:38 (for safety) where it's plain to see her boot and the stirrup, and the rest of the 'skirt' of her 'habit' behind her. I wondered how she mounted her horse so darned fast, apparently without aid of a groom (or one who vanished magically).
The befuddled Look on his face when he sees her is priceless Love at first sight
Mary is passive aggression goals
The expression on his face! Reminds me of the French (?) phrase 'coup de foudre' like a bolt of lightning struck him, or he couldn't breathe at the sight of the beautiful but haughty Lady Mary.
Ed Exley lol
I love how Matthew is completely a gog and stund by mary.. Truly love at first sight ❤
agog
Just like Matthew, my heart was stuck to Mary from the moment I saw her on my screen for the first time.
So true, she’s been my absolute favorite seen episode 1 😤
Dan has a pair of beautiful blue eyes 😍😍!
He always looks like he has adrenal fatigue or cfs though.
gray
Mat just melted when he saw her!!!!!
.. and I just melted when I saw him!
Matthews facial expression upon meeting Lady Mary the first time is priceless. She took his breath away. Quite understandable.
The fist minutes are SO important to a new series catching on. And Michelle Dockery delivered for Lord Fellowes in spades, here. She makes crystal-clear to us who Lady Mary is, IMMEDIATELY. It’s what Michelle did between her lines that created intrigue for me. I sat up and took notice after she dropped that proverbial mic in the drawing room. And once outside, as she flung one last frozen spike at Matthew’s ego, I knew I’d be tuning in again.
I agree. But this is the second episode.
You know what I'm gonna rewatch the whole show now
I'm going to do my *first ever rewatch* nearer the time of the release of the film later this year. ☺
IKR!
Matthew held his breath when he saw Mary.
I really like lady Mary’s character. She was a flawed character. Aren’t we all flawed in someway? We all can be good for some people but not good for others. Mary was caring and loving towards the people whom she loved. She was practical and always had internal conflict between her mind and heart. Being the eldest she had big responsibilities and was raised to be like that. She was traditional and loyal towards Downton like her father. Ppl had high expectations from her. On the other hand Edith and sybil were free of those estate duties. They had lot more freedom. Loved Lady Mary♥️. She never portrayed herself as weak to garner pity from other ppl. I like that strength in her. She rather showed her as cold than looking vulnerable. Michelle Dockery did full justice to Lady Mary’s character. Her voice and body language…everything was spot on.
Michelle Dockery, wonderful gesture actress. Mary looked powerful. Matthew, Molesly, and Isobel also were wonderul, I'm sure playing softer characters is no joke.
I loved Mary. As proud as her witty Grandmama 😊
I imagine Violet was exactly like Mary in her youth.
I wish I bring up my son to be like Matthew . Such mannerisms , elegance , calmness , style ...... I used to hate Posh lifestyle but Dowtown abbey managed to push it down my to inner soul to accept that culture and mannerisms is one aspect of posh lifestyle which makes life little exciting . Dressing properly , eating properly, behaving and speaking properly are some things which adds flavour to life...
So this was the start of Mary and Matthew's epic love! I still miss them😢 Wonder how story would have gone if He didn't leave and stayed with Mary
Matthew & Mary were the show for me and I stopped watching at the end of s3.
I think this is my favorite scene from the whole series. The dialog was perfect, the actors used it to set the frame for their characters, the timing and editing were en pointe, and it mercifully lacked the sadness and angst of other scenes. This is always a delight to watch.
I was only privileged recently to have access to DA via Netflix. I was skeptical but curious as to what all the hoopla was about. I was hooked from episode 1. I shouldn't have been so surprised, as I am a huge fan of British period pieces. (USA citizen here) Within two days, I had binge-watched the entire six season run. Bravo to the entire cast and crew, job more than well-done!! I wish you could've lasted longer!
It is enthralling, isn’t it? I’ve watched it in its entirety five or six times, and I notice something new every time. I just finished watching it the whole way through. I know the story really well, which makes it much easier to notice things like the furniture and paintings in the background. It’s really interesting.
Now that you’ve seen the series, you’ll have to watch the movie too. I really had misgivings about it. I didn’t think they would be able to give enough attention to each character within the time constraints of a movie, but it was managed very nicely.
@@lim4275 I look forward to it!
@@ginadisbrow9324
I think you’ll really enjoy it! 😍
same here. it took me a week. have you watched the 2019 movie?
@@ErenMortel Not yet, but I hear great things about it and hope that it will be released soon through Netflix or Peacock. I can't afford anymore streaming services. I hope it was very enjoyable for you!
Ahh, what a woman! Just two simple sentences and everyone is put in his place and up to speed! Respect and deference to the lady Mary. 😄
I love this episode look at Matthews eyes when he meets Mary ❤️❤️❤️
I adore his voice 😍
I liked how Matthew wanted to carry his own suitcases and do things for himself. He wasn't stuck up and I liked that.
Matthew: Ugh, they're going to push one of the daughters on me!
*Mary walks in*
Matthew: Push her! Push her!
love Lady Mary. she is so witty!
I can't count how many times I've watched this scene and every time I'm thoroughly entertained.
Wow the way she speak/ act..Lady Mary .so high class English Noble...
Dan Stevens is stunningly gorgeous and talented.. those eyes!!
The BEST scene of all the seasons!!! Lady Mary at her finest! Matthew falling for her already…. Swoon!
His eyes are so beautiful!
I get Matthews points but he didn’t understand that his view on things belittled those who proudly served in those roles.
Mary and Matthew forever! Who’s here in Dec 2020 ? 😷
I was hooked from the first time I was channel surfing (during Season 1) and came upon Lady Mary riding cantering side saddle in full hunt attire during a hunt with everyone all decked out PERFECTLY! That did it for me. I was like WHAAAAT is this? Loved every moment of this magnificent series.
I haven't been able to rewatch those first seasons because I don't want to cry again. It's just way too sad... 😭
It's on Netflix now
His face is priceless
Michelle Dockery, who has (as far as I'm aware of it) not a single noble bone in her body (dito for the drop of blood) does the frosty high and mighty with a natural grace in a self-evident manner as if she were princess of a ruling House. Splendid! Lovely even.
What Matthew saw in this clip is the daughter of an Earl...the well poised and high manners of an aristocrat. Which left him and us in awe of lady mary
Lady Mary is and will forever be a mood lol I so miss Downton Abbey
Mathew didn't expect Mary was so pretty.
Why did I watch this? It just sucked me right back in and now I have tears. Miss this show.
that went south real fast: i thought u were going to say excited to watch it all over again
Her WTF face before stepping into the room!!!!💜
I miss Downton Abbey! My heart hurts.
Well the movie comes out later this year! :D
@@LucyLovettLestrange For real? Or are you kidding?
@@ladytrashcan5829 REALLLLL!!!!! :DDDDDDD
@@sousamina Oh wow! Thanks a lot. Now I am hyped
I miss it too😭 sanditon is pretty good
"I wouldn't say that, Not while your mother breathes air."
"I take that as a compliment."
He is really thrilled at the first sight of her... :-) He forgets to shut his mouth.
Oh my god, this is the first time I hear Dan Steven's real voice for Matthew (I saw the series with my mom in Spanish) and I didn’t expect that deep, sotisficated tone. I think I’m in love.
He fell for her, first look, so cute
The fact that they fall madly in love at the end makes this even lovelier
Gah! I cried so much when he died. Was very upset that I couldn’t bring myself to watch the next season’s first episode until after several months.
This is a late response but when I saw him dead my heart stopped and I screamed. Then I broke down in tears. My stress levels were like 📈📈📈📈📈
The first couple of series were ASTONISHINGLY brilliant.
03:02 and that how love at the first sight looks like.
It seems I need to start rewatching of the Downton Abbey...
I can watch this again and again ..
What a beautifullly made show…it was a pleasure watching it, listening it.
Matthew: I'll choose my own wife....(sees Mary)...never mind, push away.
3:02 and here is the “on second thought” moment when it clicked in Mathew’s brain😂
Matthew will always be in my heart 💓
There is just so much to say in favor of class! ("And I don't want to push in". 😂 Wonderful!)
His reaction to Lady Mary is brilliant acting, almost over the top
We’ve always managed perfectly well with a cook and a maid 😂😂😂
Sometimes you just have to rough it.....😁
what i wouldn't give for a cook and a maid. heck, just a maid would be find with me.
if i ever win the lottery i am not going to spend the money on frivolous things, just a maid.
When Matthew looks towards Isobella he like “I’m going”
Matthew was hit by lighting!
Matthew was more of a snob than Mary was a times..
Judy, I was thinking the same thing, and a rather moronic, unthinking one. LOL!
He sure was snobbish about his new valet. The way he ignores him made me laugh at first but then you really feel for the guy when he says "This is my job sir" and Matthew replies "Well it seems like a rather silly role for a grown man". But he's not a jerk, just kind of ignorant about the lives of the aristocracy.
@@elamplough1 Even understanding how it worked, many people would feel uncomfortable if they were suddenly expected to stand around while a stranger does things for them all day that they can do themselves, like pouring a cup of tea or even getting dressed in the morning.
@@snowangelnc Yeah, when you're not used to that kind of living it's just kind of instinct to such basic things yourself. Although I am glad that Matthew did make an effort for the valet feel more useful as time went on.
Matthew was a man of real character just like Lord Grantham. He was willing to give up millions of dollars he inherited from Mr. Swire just because he thought it was wrong. There aren't a lot of people out there willing to do that.
Oh gosh, Downton Abbey marathon for sure now!
same
I've got popcorn!
As soon as the regret washed over his face, I was a 10/10 Matthew/Mary shipper for life.
LOVE Mary's outfit!
I know Dan had other stuff to do, but I'll never forgive them for killing off Matthew.
Ikr, I was so sad when he died 😭😭
Matt! My dream guy
me and my mum, too. At 88 she was like "Oh, THOSE EYES !"
He’s a real man, not a 🧚♀️
Ok, youre pride of being gay. Congrats. You have the attention you wanted.
He will be a guy very soon
And remebering my comment
Creepy
I used to hate Mary in the beginning, but I’ve grown to appreciate her honesty and fearlessness
3:14 BRUH his eyesssss omg
Matthew had only just finished saying that he would choose his own wife instead of one of the daughters being thrust upon him then in walks Mary & Matthew is a goner, by the time she departs, he’s in love with her already.
