I thought Penelope's acting after her on-screen son Matthew died was stellar. It was the little nuances in her facial expressions, the eyes suddenly veiling over with a thin film of tears, the quiver in her voice, all the while staying dignified and generous. I really felt for her character, I could feel her grief.
She's outstanding, exceptional . I loved her!
I think penelope’s an amazing actress. She impressed me the most of the series.
💯
Damit, now I am going to have to watch the series again!!! I missed that.
This is so lovely thank you for all of these wonderful interviews.
Love Maggie Smith's reaction to Penelope's adoration of her. So humbled.
Penelope is also a Dame right? She is so lovely. And Maggie Smith is beyond words. I only wanted her to throw her sas to sir Ian and sir Ian doing her
@@SyedSaifAbbasNaqvi She is, which is interesting that they don't make mention of that in the video description but they make sure to address Maggie as Dame Maggie.
those two played their characters SO PERFECTLY off one another
@@Kristiekins2 What means Dame? In German in would mean "lady"
@@daimhaus It means that but in the UK it's more than that. It's an honorific title, the feminine form of address the honour of damehood.
Honours are given by the Queen/monarch. They are used to recognise merit in terms of achievement and service. When a person is a respected invididual who has been especially brave or succesfull and has brought pride for the country in one way or another, the Queen can make them knights (men) or dames (women). Men have the honorific title "Sir" to address the honour of the knighthood - and women "Dame" for the honour of the damehood (=female equivalent for knighthood). Out of respect those people are called by the title - as it should because those are not given lightly. Damehood/knighthood is a huge recognition.
I hope this answers your question. Sorry for possible mistakes, English isn't my first language. I knew about the subject and I'm interested in it so I wrote a terribly long response... Sorry for that! Have a nice day. :)
"Oh Do Stop"...My God...Is there Anyone like the Fabulous Dame Maggie Smith?? I LoVe her.
Yes! Maggie is the greatest!
More than myself!
*Such a generous, most marvelous actor and woman! A true legend!*
Yes DAME Patricia Routledge she is far better than her, naturally.
Me too! She’s amazing.
I wish Julian Fellows would take us back in time and cover the Dowager's life when she was young, and when she went to Russia... it would be magical as the edwardians were very eccentric! Julian if you are reading this PLEEEEAASE!!
I would like to see the courtship of Robert and Cora.
@@margaretmanion9121 It would be cool to see how he went fortune hunting in America and Found Cora, and then convinced her to marry him even though she knew he wanted her money.
wouldn't that be great?1
It would be very interesting. Only downside is that it couldn’t be with Maggie Smith.
@@LordIstar They could have her looking back inbetween .. I agree I love Maggie Smith.
I love that clip of Maggie and Penelope together. So sweet and endearing. Penelope has such a sweet voice. I love how she opened up about how she admires Maggie and I love Maggies response. So humble. Those two are gold together (both on and off screen). Two of my heroines!
Great.c
Penelope, a ‘sweet’ voice?! 🥴
I want them to be my mums
There will never be another TV series of this calibre. You could sit back for an hour every week for many years and totally escape into a world that is so foreign to most of us, but fascinating at the same time. I would like to think there will be something new to rival it at some stage, but I believe this was the pinnacle of British period drama.
@MrSteamDragon ... Yes, I agree, Downton was a truly special series of the highest quality, I always looked forward to watching it. Like you, I would like to think that at some point another programme will come along to equal this, bettering it though will be an almost impossible task.
I have to agree with you. These are immersion seasons. We can lose ourselves in their happenings.
Alas I think you may be right.
…. Although… thinking of this again… Foyles War was exceptionally well done too. Mr Horowitz’s writing in that series and the attention to detail in the production was phenomenal.
Funny you say that ,my record would be on Sunday started watching at 9 am and finished at 11 pm
It was raining and with breaks for toilet and something to eat
I never knew I could be so hooked ,I watched 1 and 2 seasons in that 1 day ,and now I am watching 3 season but after work so from 5pm till 10 pm
I will be sad it will ends lol
I never knew ,it could be so fascinated ,I heard people gossip about it long ago and i am now hooked on it in 2024 😂❤
The finest actors in the world are British. Hats off to everyone who participated in this UTTERLY AMAZING series !!! 👏👏👏👏
This show is brilliant in every way - the writing, acting, sets/scenery, costumes, cinematography, music - ALL absolutely brilliant! Thank you to everyone who had anything to do with creating it.
That’s very sincere for a well known re-gifter.
@@MaxPower-vf8kt The label maker? That was the WORST gift I ever got.
I have never watched a series where I laughed and cried so much. Pure perfection
Let us now praise Penelope Wilton as well as Dame Maggie.
Penelope was one of my favorite characters. I think she’s so lovely!❤️
@Shelly D, I agree. Isobel was my favorite--with Cybil, then Rose. They were written as if they knew that "aristocracy" and "royalty" were exactly what they are--a charade and a much ado--unless one is using the charade to do good.
Penelope's character Isobel was my absolute favorite on the show, she was very kind and very progressive in her thinking. Mrs. Patmore was also a favorite of mine.
@@karlasammons5197 every main character is so likable... even thomas in the end
same i love her sm
Phyllis Logan is my favorite in all of the characters. She presents a strong, wise, self-aware person who knows her limitations and the limitations of human kind. I like to imagine her character as a young woman learning her craft and learning about life.
Her character is one of my favorites. I couldn't believe it when I read that she and Kevin Doyle (Mr Molesley) were an item for a while
@@TheMoorschaf do you mean Kevin McNally? She is married to him. As for Kevin Doyle, I believe he had a thing with Penelope Wilton (Isobel)
@@TheMoorschaf what! Noo!! Do tell
This morning I watched Maggie Smith on the old Carol Burnett show. I kept seeing The Dowager Countess, although she was so young.
I had a dream that I met Maggie Smith last night. If only... One of the things that I love about her is that she can be the Queen of Shade on the screen, but is so shy and humble in real life. That is a true artist.
Oh she can throw shade irl as well, watch her interviews with Graham Norton
Teary eyed over Penelope saying she looked up to Maggie 😭😭 Love these 2.
SEPTEMBER 20TH 2019 THE DOWNTON MOVIE IS HERE!!!!
World War Will
And to think Maggie Smith was worried/nervous about acting next to Kenneth Williams of the Carry on films fame.
This movie compare to the series is such flop very rushed and superficial......shame
@@user-uo3tm1dv5i are u crazy
I loved it.
@@charlesf4314 Good for you, we all crazy 😊
Time period pieces are great ,but is the acting ,directing and all that goes into a fabulous production like this that makes for an unbelievable series ,Dame Maggie Smith is fabulous as usual,her witt is like nobody else and of course one amazing cast !
I watched Downton Abbey each week it aired. Every special. The movie.
Then binge watched the entire series from start to finish at least three times since its release. Just two weeks ago my husband chose to watch the entirety WITH me. I am still over the moon!
I felt like I was sharing my family and friends with him. 💖 He really enjoyed it. Now I cannot wait for the next movie. 👍
I didn't watch it at first when it came on, started seeing during the last season but then binged watched it on Prime, have done so several times now just finished again on Netflix my husband who is British and at times reminds me of a mix between Carson and Violet. We got to see the movie in England as it was first out there, and just can't get enough of this show!!
I had the same feeling, as if I was part of the crew.
Watching this video explains why and how the British do an excellent job at making programs. They are meticulous about every aspect of the jobs that they do. Bravo !
Thank you all, every person who worked to make this masterpiece. It made my life so much better and happier.
So true.
It must be great, as an actor, to have the opportunity to work with Dame Maggie Smith, and admire that level of incredible natural talent, equally as much as one does watching her as a viewer and being totally drawn in to the character. To me, that is the sign of sheer brilliance, and she ranks with the Greats as far as I am concerned.
I always loved period dramas but by far and wide, this is the best I’ve ever seen in every aspect. Totally and utterly enthralling
A brilliant series, I miss it, wish it would return, Sunday nights are not the same without Downtown Abby
They're doing a movie! Not quite the same but something to look forward to.
It would be a great open ended sequel. Perhaps a decade or two from where the series (or movie) ends.
I can get all the seasons from my library. In the middle of rewatching it all. I really miss it, too.
You can watch it on Netflix now lol
Siobhan is an amazing actress because she makes me hate O’Brien so much
Will never forgive her for Cora loosing her baby boy ! Bitch )))))
@@user-uo3tm1dv5i she (the character) can't forgive herself, either.
@@dianegaus3561 Yes, it is so sad. She changed her mind--but life changes in a moment.
Why did she leave so abruptly? Was there a salary Dispute?
She only ever wanted to do three years, apparently. She’s fantastic in everything I’ve ever seen her in.
The Lovely Ladies of Downton. Violet and Isobel …. they are wonderful.
The brilliance of Downton Abbey and wonderful characters. A million thank you for the joy
Perfect casting for this series! What a rocking brilliant triumph for the BBC - the best in the entire world! I literally grieved each time a member dropped out and again when the it all ended .. I so wish they’d start again ❤️
After watching this, I'm going to have to watch the series again!!!!
Seriously one of the best series ever.
It must have been hard on the family who live at Highclere Castle, to be invaded monthly, despite the fees paid by the movie studio to rent it. But imagine this show anywhere else, it would never have been the same. The castle was so grand and striking in beauty, that it became one of the characters in the show as well. I was struck dumb by that beauty in every opening shot. Thank you Highclere Castle owners!
As you can see in the show Downton Abbey needed to be self-sufficient. The same also applies to Highclere Castle. This is one way in which it remains, without falling into ruin - to use a theme from the show. :)
You should visit one day. Hope you get the chance. There are many other great houses and palaces up and down the country, which are open to the public. Some are bigger and other smaller, but each with their own history. Without tourism they would be almost impossible to maintain.
I imagine they had some other house or space to live in if it got unbearable.
I don’t think they live there full time
@@KoiYakultGreenTea They do en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Herbert,_8th_Earl_of_Carnarvon
That was a beautiful series. Plot, language, place, era... perfect!
What a fantastical peek behind the curtain. I've longed to see the true personalities of the actors behind the characters. What a joy. Thanks to everyone behind the scenes and in front of the cameras of Downtown Abbey.
Why is Siobhan so naughty though 😂 Honestly she's so funny and i just love her 😍 Also it just clearly proves what an incredible talent she is that someone as kind, warm and funny as that can play someone so horrid and cold and make so many people hate her! I love O'Brien and i feel like it was a shame they never explored her background or personal life more like they did with the others because she wasn't 100% evil, she was very complex and Siobhan portrayed that perfectly! ❤xxx
Dame Maggie Smith👏👏 Great cast.
I love watching both Maggie Smith & Penelope Wilton’s love hate to hate love relationship..🤣 Their sparing of wits, sarcasm and bitchiness always intrigue me immensely…Love all the cast of Downton Abbey. Best drama series I’ve ever seen! Kudos to everyone….👍👍👍
me too. But I absolutely CANNOT stand the interplay between Violet Crawley's (Maggie Smith) servants - Denker & Spratt
My maternal grandmother was married in 1920 though not aristocracy, a rural girl from the farmlands of the upper Midwest. The period fashion was lovely to see. Lady Mary's wedding dress and veil were just exquisite; I imagined seeing Grandma in her dress when Mary came down the main staircase...
Sabrina N ...... do you feel like you better understand how things were for your grandparents by watching this show?
My mom’s parents married in June 1912. They were both children of farming families. They ran his parents dairy farm in northwest New JerseyMy dad’s parents in 1917 before Grampa went to France with his Army unit.
What I love about Dame Maggie is not only her great talent but also her style. Love her haircuts and clothing.
what a special series never going to forget it the actors, clothes, everything in that masterpiece is unforgetherbable like gone with the wind love it soooo much thank you for all this piece of my life that is going to remember it
My favorite series. I only wish it could go on and on and on. If General Hospital went on for 10 years I think, how come Downton Abbey doesn’t? Please keep on doing it!
Hello sweet soul friend, how are you doing today?
MUCH more expensive!
Down town abbey is my favorite because I love Maggie smith and Dan stevens and Lilly James and Sophie mcshera
General Hospital is at 60+ years ..lol
My wife and I just finished watching every episode of Downton. We enjoyed it very much and we were sad to see it end.
Siobhan Finneran was incredible with that menacing Sweeney Todd vibe of hers. There's one scene with the character Edith (the one who got knocked up by the soldier) where she stares at her with those dead shark eyes as she tells her "be careful what you wish for"-- makes my blood run cold!
All my respect and admiration for Mr. Julian Fellows, the creator of this wonderful story, characters, .......for the minute description of such a wide range of events,, characters , just for re-creating the atmosphere and environment at that time ...He's succeeded wonderfully !.... along with the actors and the whole team that made that visible ....
@ Penelope Wilton
I adore Maggie Smith as well, but love both of you!
There is only a few books that I have read that I would read over and over, and so are only a few movies that I would enjoy watching more than one time. In a few words I love what Mr. Fellows is doing with Downton Abby, and the actors and actresses are wonderful playing their parts. I will enjoy it as long as it is a available. Thank you.
Astounding actors all of them.
No comparison with what we have this side of the pond.
Ah, the two Dames interviewed together.
It was the best series of my life! Marvelous!
I absolutely agree. I LOVE it.
Maggie's voice, when it's calm, reminds me of my late Grandma whom we lost nearly 15 years ago. made me miss her. :-(
This was the best , beutifull and interesting series I ever saw ! I enjoyed over and over!
i am extremely late to this glorious party. but im okay with it. this show came to me when i needed it to. started watching it with my mother who was already a season in a month or so ago and i couldn't stop. i've just finished it last night on my own but im absolutely going back to catch all that i missed even tho my mother and context clues helped me piece things along. this show has changed me, this little rough n tough black girl. well, it saved me moreso. never cried watching anything else as much as i cried watching this splendor and heartbreak and sheer brilliance. to think that i found a show that takes me away from it all, like the walking dead did (a complete 180, i know 🥴) and more, says quite a lot. i loved it and will continue to love it. thank you to everyone who made it possible. thank you for bringing joy and love back into my troubled heart.
The best movie I've ever seen, all the actors are wonderful and all the people who have worked to make this series possible. Thank you very much for making us spend such pleasant moments. I watch the chapters every day on my computer. Thank you, Greetings from Spain. 😘
I loved Maggie Smith & Penelope Wilton on both Downton but also on Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, together with Judy Dench.
Maggie Smith and Penelope Wilton are basically Granny and Isobel! hahahaha My favorite pair at Downton hands down. Loved watching their moment there. So happy to know they are friends
As an american, i must say their is No one better than the brits to make the Best tv series in the World, so gourgeus touching and the Best actors in the World
Я просто влюбилась в этих двух чудесных, конфликтующих и в конце концов подружившихся леди, они всё время заставляли меня улыбаться своими пикировками по любому поводу. Чудесные женщины и актрисы просто потрясающие❤❤❤❤❤
They are all very convincing in acting their characters ❤
Just finished binge watching DA for the second time. Enjoyed it more the second time. I just wish I had been able to visit the Biltmore when they had the DA exhibit. I am such a big fan. Waiting for the new movie to come out.
Best TV show ever. I love everyone but Maggie Smith is my favorite.
The only moment O'Brien made me genuinely laugh was in this video
Whats it to ya?
O'Brien and Thomas were evil personified.. Ugh. Can't believe Thomas made it in the end, but more times than not, evil prevails. Ugh. …. PEACE to ALL ….
O'Brien is actually one of my favourite characters because Siobhan Finneran was able to make her such a complex character. I was quite upset when she left after the 3rd season because I was totally intrigued by the relationship between Thomas and O'Brien. I love that the "baddies" in this show turn out to be among the most interesting and complex characters, as they often are.
Siobhan Finneran is one of the most versatile actors in the business. She’s also brilliant in Benidorm which is a completely different programme.
This was such a well done series!
Lady Carnarvon is the best! She embraces everything required to keep the great ship Highclere afloat with grace, love and dignity.
Downtown Abbey was a great series. The actors from upstairs to downstairs were all great!!! Love the era ,place, actors. Such a joy to watch, good scripts, great acting, joy,joy!!!🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️
Dame Maggie Smith is just awesome.
The cast & crew seem to be a happy bunch esp. off-screen. DA is worth all the late nights I spent watching the series & film on Netflix late this year.
Tous les acteurs sont extraordinaires!
Great talent all around Downton Abbey
Thank you, GleePotter8468.
Only one I can watch over and over and over, love it!!!
God this is hard to see Sybil and Mattew. I still can't believe they were both gone on THE SAME SEASON
Such a magical show.
We need a prequel pls!
Two wonderful, amazingly talented actors...xx
Its 2021 and i finished watching it. What a masterpiece
Gosh, I miss this show.
Best TV drama ever produced.
downton abbey
could watch forever
This drama changed my life! Wonderful!
How lol 😂
I think Penelope is lovely.
Hello sweet soul friend how are you doing today?
this show and the subsequent reading i did about the Edwardian Era taught me a lot about British history. Lovely show
I love Downton Abbey I have watched all series twice
It has worked because all who work in it are class.Of course , Julian Fellows isn't a bad writer either...
love him.💘! The star of it all is the house...
"You've got from the legendary Maggie Smith, down to these, you know....these really talented youngsters." Clearly, the cast is caste.
Supposedly the Queen was watching and occasionally pointed out mistakes that were made.
What a wonderful show! That alone would be grounds enough to admire British TV. Seen it twice- may see it a third time. Greetings from Germany
Luckily he's now writing The Gilded Age. I have watched season 1 about 6 or 7 times so far. Look forward to season 2.
If I could be in a one minute scene with Maggie Smith I would be in heaven. Best I could ever hope for is maybe an autograph. She had some of the funniest lines ever. Love ❤️ her.
Hello sweet soul friend, how are you doing today?
The great thing about this series is it shows that even 100 years ago, though the struggles may have been different, people were just as challenged by life and had to overcome just as much as they do today. Today people look at the complexities of our modern world and think no group of people ever had so much to contend with as we do today when in reality, life and the world people live today is no more challenging than the world of 100, 200, or 1000 years ago. Which is encouraging because the triumphs of 100, 200, and 1000 years ago can be experienced today in equal measure.
“Most of the cast is good fun” 😂😂😂 emphasis on “most” 😂😂😂
Wonderful show, please keep it coming!
It’s really as if you lost friends- family- when the series finished.
AAAAHHHH !!GREAT STUFF LADIES !!ALL ACTRESSES & ACTOR'S WERE SUPERB INDEED !!!THE MUSIC WAS NEATLY COMPOSED !!!!LOVED IT ALL !!FROM (U.K.).
Wonderful series 👍 I really missed it
Série fantástica! Já assisti 4 vezes!😍
Brilliant series!
The greatest show ever made
11:28 Rob's laugh is so wholesome😍
This is one of the best series I ever saw, I love it!!
Maggie & Penelope are actually Dowager Violet & Cousin Isobel in real life 😂😂😂
Be it American, Brit, or anyone in the world, we all have one thing in common; Our love for Maggie Smith. The obsession is real.
Toutes mes félicitations… cette série restera gravée dans mon coeur …… merci à tous les acteurs 😊
Some people say there is no perfection. I think Diwnton Abbe is the perfection
Love that they for once didn't complained about the corsets. It sure is very different, but they seemed to be very well made.
