The brilliance of writing is the whole spectrum they gave to the character of Mary. As an audience you despise her ... Get curious ... Want her to face the music and then points like these totally empathise with her so much so you want to be with her and shed a tear. Amazing
Oh no,Mary, you've told him a lie.Not about his legs...but you said he could have "a full and normal life" and Dr. Clarkson just told your father that not only has Matthew potentially paralyzed his legs in the battle, his sexual functions have also been damaged as a result of his severed spine. He won't be able to have children or a life with his wife in that way. That wounds a man more than the loss of his legs, I think....not being able to continue his name.

One of the most beautiful, emotional scene, too often forgotten. Now glad to watch it...💚💖💚🌹
Michelle Dockery was excellent in these scenes.
It’s heating up
Mary is putting on a
brave face.
Love this show
I sometimes forget that this is only a dramatic show. I feel like these people are real!!😉
I know! That's a sign of how good the actors, especially, ARE...
Remembering 2nd Lieutenant Edward Archibald Beauchamp, killed in action at Ypres, December 23, 1914
Lady Mary was often petty and mean-spirited, but I really did love her the most of the 3 sisters.
How poignant it was to see that he still had the little stuffed animal that she had given him when he left!😢
