this clown was paid cash to push the jab agenda, no thanks
I am embarrassed to admit that I have watched this terrific series at least five times… Julian Fellowes is a genius!
Don't be embarrassed. You're not alone my friend, you're not alone. I could quote you the script just as, if not better than Julian Fellowes himself.
The so called creatives should be embarrassed that nobody else can make anything worth watching.
I have watched it many times myself. Love it !!
Why be embarrassed? It is an avenue of greatness all the way around.
I’ve watched it about 10 😂
When they put Mrs. Hughes on the spot, her defense of her ideas about her own wedding, I have to say it brought tears to this grown man's eyes.
So touching❤️
I love it when Cora dismisses Nanny West over her behaviour in a calm, angry, and very to the point about her disgust. Great way to deal with annoying disrespectful people
The nannie wasn’t annoying or disrespectful she was a bigot and an abuser
Don't be embarrassed, I watch it on utube every day, very addictive , as a great escape from the real world lol
In the 21st c.these houses are anachronistic one can't deny that some of the greatest moments in British history are to be found within the confines of these beautiful examples of a bygone age. Julian Fellowes is a master of his art and a visionary of historical dimensions.
I feel that the further we get away from these beautiful anachronistic homes, the more we yearn to return to them. It’s a beautiful thing
To be fair, it's likely a bit easier being a 'visionary' regarding things that have already happened (history) as compared to being a 'visionary' regarding the future. Fellowes does a masterful job of capturing the essence of the period. But insofar as the entire TV production goes, there were lots of people who used their talents to mesh with the talents of Fellowes -- especially the set and costume designers. And of course the grand historical nature of the home itself goes a long way to creating the overall ambiance.
So anachronistic that they provide hundreds of jobs.
Are they anachronistic? How are they any different from some of the mega mansion the super rich are still building and buying?
@@daniel_sc1024 to day clothes aren't as hard to put on . No courses ,zippers instead of hundreds of buttons. Then you have smaller generation numbers living in the home. Catering is you have larger numbers of guest or events have been replaced by personal chiefs. The large homes like this still needs cleaning staff, but not personal ( lol except personal assistants often do it for some wealthy)
I love that Mrs. Hughs insists on a sit down breakfast for her wedding and Lady Mary has a sit down meal at her 2nd wedding later on. It’s nice to see her grow by learning from others besides her own family and Mr. Carson.
Good observation!
Never noticed that detail!
Oh, good for you! I hadn’t noticed that!
I would love for them to make a show about the Dowagers youth and of Downton in its heyday. How fabulous!
I've been thinking of this, I would love to see her tenure as Lady Grantham and how the house looked fully staffed😍 (plus see a much younger Mr. Carson at some point~)
OMG I would love that!!! ❤❤❤
But who could play her? We remember Maggie Smith in her youth. How does one duplicate that extraordinary talent?
Someone needs to pitch these ideas to Julian Fellowes. 😊
I think we all would love an early life prequel about The Dowager Countess. But what young actress could possibly want to attempt it? I mean really, who follows Maggie Smith?
Gwen had determination and talent - but she also had a great deal of good luck, and considerable help from Lady Sybil. There were many others, equally talented, equally determined, who had no such good fortune.
I disagree-you make your own luck.Gwen had light,determination,and was dynamic.She PUSHED the boundries.She shared her dreams with Sybil and thankfully Sybil had the same mind and wanted to transform her life as well as Gwens by helping her!As you walk the way the way appears!Some people have to push and push for their dreams.
Boo hoo hoo.
You're right. These houses were meant to keep people in their place. It was tremendous luck that Gwen found someone to help.
@@afrozeahmed6515 So THAT'S why she gave up several times and was only successful because Sybil applied for her. Because she did it all on her own and made her own luck. SMDH.
@@afrozeahmed6515 In that time and that place???? Uh...no. Remember, this is fiction.
What I loved about the scenes of the tourists in the house, was how little the family really knew about their estate! I suspect that was very true. They had all these portraits of the former earls and ladies and there was history behind all of the China, knickknacks, etc., but they didn’t know it because they had lived in that huge house all their lives and thought everyone lived like they did! It was rather sad! I’m glad that the current Earl of Caernarvon who owns Highclere Castle, the house used as Downton, knows and treasures his family’s history!
I desperately need more series like this.
We all do m'lady.
There was a series called Lark Rise to Candleford, not stately homebasedbut normal people, it was excellent.
It's not Maggie Smith nor a drama, but "you rang, my lord," an old British tv comedy series, tells a great deal about how these ppl lived from their hay day through the market crash.
It's one of my favorites.❤
Charles Camilla are still living this life but away more upscale with several palaces Grand Houses and a retinue of Servants at their beck and call
I wish people wouldn’t compare Mary and Edith all the time.they are both great characters with flaws you don’t have to pull down one to uplift the other. Both are successful in the end.
Thank you. Couldn't we apply your wise words more widely and have a much better world.
I can't help myself. Re-watching again. 🎉❤
And again, and again, and again!!!♡♡♡
Best series on TV. Couldn’t get enough of it. Especially while I was ill and housebound. ❤️
The best series ever as far as I’m concerned. They just don’t make them like that anymore. Nowadays unfortunately they think they have to use a swearword every other word in order to draw an audience. That’s sad doesn’t say much about our generation does it ?
I'm not surprised nothing this good is on American TV.
When the Crawleys planned on downgrading their life style just a notch, was quite moving, which was the realization of the changing times and the prospects of new wealth was being found in other areas and avenues, and no longer through investments and farming. I loved how they managed to keep as close to history as possible and that the storyline of downton mirrored such accuracy.
The attention to detail in all aspects made Downton such a wonderful show.
I will never stop loving this series💖💖💖
Hello..
Me too
Me too
I love the stately houses of England.
I remember my parents taking me
To England from Australia when I
Was ten. I loved those houses so
Much, it was like a wonderland.
I really appreciate all the effort that went into making this series from the accuracy of the costumes and furnishings to the manner of speech. I Hope there will forever be an England. 🏴 🇬🇧 🥰❤️
Joanne...Anthony Hopkins viewed the series - I admire him greatly as an actor! This would be quite a tribute to the cast (after they found out he watched the series).
It would be a blessing to see England endure after such a long, fascinating history...But like in America, people are being conditioned to question and hate their history, being convinced towards a more tyrannical type of rule...socialism and all that entails. I pray that cooler heads prevail, but who knows.
@@sabdav why do people think that Socialism is a bad word. If we didn’t have Socialism in America we wouldn’t have police, fireman, social Security ‘ medicare & so many more things that we enjoy.
There'll always be an England! For from it has come all that's good and kind and decent and it has blessed the entire world with so much but mostly with what England is based on and from whence all its goodness flows from and that is the eternal river of life, the Bible and the Lord Jesus Christ. Downton Abbey epitomises the heights of Englands grand and glorious destiny and refined culture through their ruling classes. In essence it is a sensitivity and refinement of thinking and feeling and way of life that considers our lives sacred and a calling whatever station of life we find ourselves in. There will always be someone greater or lesser than we and it is our duty to humbly do our best for all thinking of our wonderful Saviour who lived his life for his heavenly father and others.
@@sunnydaze2359There is such a thing as 'Christian' Socialism which is what our western societies are based on which is care and concern for all in our society whilst retaining the freedom and independence of a democratic society. In essence it is the Kingdom of God playing out or manifesting itself here on earth.
This was an still is a once in a lifetime amazing artistic journey, 4 us all. We all loved it.
Couldn’t tell you how many times I have watch and rewatched this series.
The open house episode remains to be one of my favourite ones
Marina W One of my most LOL episode 😁
Rona Rubis so true 🤣
I don't remember that one. What season and episode was that?
People get mad that some people have such a big home but it was those big homes that opened their doors to the sick during the wars. I love seeing big beautiful homes and helping the poor too. I just enjoy what I got.
Hello..
It was also the big houses that provided work. The Chatsworth estate still employs about 500 people.
@@mscott3918 Oh, How great! ... how generous. And just WHY did they have so much wealth to begin with??
@@mscott3918 And not very well paid either
@@alankobrin762 and WHAT is exactly wrong with having much wealth?
I have watched the entire series more than five times and I’m not embarrassed about it. I love it. The only thing I don’t love is the devotion of Bates to Anna. “She is incapable of fault “. It is wonderful to witness their love, but please.
14:02 “It’s nice to see our upstairs family in a very downstairs environment!”
That’s not what he said.
Faccio di nuovo o miei complimenti al signor Fellowes... dall'alto dei miei 59 anni mi permetto d' affermare che sia stata una delle migliori serie televisive di sempre.
Ad oggi non so ancora determinare quale dei personaggi di tutto il recitato compreso i due film e sia il migliore....(Sig.ra Maggie Smith a parte) ha solo individuato l' episodio preferito (forse ho già visto una decina di volte tutto ) e credo sia l'ottavo episodio delle terze serie...ma in generale la delicatezza di come sono trattati tutti gli argomenti presi in considerazione nella serie la silente e arguta giustizia con cui vengono puniti tutti i personaggi dei loro risvolti peggiori ed infine lei la granduchessa con il suo lungo sguardo e la sua arguzia nonché alla fine il suo vivere nonostante tutto da generico umano.
Grazie ancora signor Fellowes!!
I love this series. Amazing writing for each character.
Love how Edith and Ms. Hughes were the only people who had the spine to tell Mary , "IT'S NOT ALWAYS ABOUT YOU; How momma would respoond: THERE YA GO. ...and granny would tell her: you can apologize or continue to be bitter.
Edith is an absolute knock out towards the end. How did that happen? For me, she was the best Downton bride 2nd time around.
Stunning! 🤩
She finally dropped the "I just ate a rotten grapefruit" face she maintainted through way too many seasons, lol. Sad sack indeed.
Bobby...Edith was the middle daughter, insignificant, less pretty than Mary or Sybill. All this is due to the make up and clothing she had to wear - the problem with her is she always fought with Mary. Sisterly relations (you can only understand that if as a woman have a sister that you didn't get along with)! She had to earn a better disposition when she decided to get out of Mary's shadow - thank goodness they lived when they did, because 20 yrs earlier she was supposed to be looking for a husband and nothing else! That was their world and after 1919 (with the vote) they were able to get out and do something worthwhile.
I hated her hair. It was so unflattering and she didn't change it when the 20s hit. She had the same hair throughout the series 🤦♀️ I know it was a wig but they could have chosen a better one at some point...
IKR SHE SHOWED UP AND SHOWED OUT DIDN'T SHE❤😅😂🎉
It's because she married a man who adored her. She was happy! Love does that.
This was such a brilliant series. I must watch it again. ❤❤
OMG!!! It's so amazing having Mr. Carson's voice booming out of my speakers.
What a voice
simply THE BEST
all the cast & crew are so self-possessed & articulate!
So could you be with all that help, editing, theater training, etc.
I'd like Carson's voice to be my alarm in the morning
Seed sales
He would definitely wake a person up !
A rumbling bass. Unforgettable.
Bravo! Thank you for this great season👍 I see it as first time. 👏🏻👏🏻
It very much about opportunities behind the immediate. My family first left Lithuania/Poland in the mid 19th century for England for opportunity to a) eat and b) prosper. 3 generations later, members of the same family left for California and have succeeded beyond expectation. If an opportunity is presented, grab it. Do Not hesitate. Fear is one's WORST enemy.
Beautiful comment and very true. I experienced something similar before the "Iron Curtain" vanished. Never give up. There are Up´s and Down´s, but in the end all will be well :)
...Aaaaa-MEN, adapt or perish...!
It's true..... "America is a place where great wealth can be made if one is willing to put forth the effort?" But, I hope you, & your family become wealthier than you could've ever imagined. 😊
My dad had left his stable, well paying government job in order to move into a city, so that I could have a good education. At the time of his leaving, every one of his colleagues, even his own family and my mother's family had told him that he was making a grave mistake. Now, I have managed to go farther in life, than the children of his friends who had stayed back in the tea estate. Now, the very people who had once snubbed at my father for being a mere private accountant, are jealous of the way our family has prospered. Take the chances which are made available to you. Don't wait sitting around for some divine providence to come your way.
Wonderful series ❤
Rob James-Collier is just TOO gorgeous 😍😋
Exactly my thoughts! I paused the video at 4:30 just to look at him.
I did watch him it quite a few times. He was gorgeous each time I replayed it.
I've loved him for his days on Coronation Street! ❤❤
Carson and his baritone!
The most wonderful thing about Downton Abbey is to see the love of a family played out. And in this case a ruling class family that can do so much for others and their society. Downton Abbey is a whole economic unit or society within itself supporting and sustaining all within it. This series would make excellent educational material for subjects such as History, English, Domestic Science and Religion and at a Tertiary level Economics, Sociology, Psychology and Religion.
That conversation with the little boy was so cute
My top three favorite actors on Downtown are: Elizabeth McGovern bc she's an American and beautiful second is Hugh Bonniwell bc he's a terrific actor and third is Shirley McClain.
Longo live downtown abbey
Oh no - disagree. As much as I loved Shirley McClain i detested her in Downton - such a jarring classless character. 0unless that was the point as she was American)
@honeymcdonald9120
I loved the snobbishness of the Brits for the Americans in films. Maggie was the best. She always got the best lines. "Papa said America was made up of the sweepings of Europe." from LADIES IN LAVENDER, I think.😅
*"sweepings" YT thinks it knows everything. Corrected me then wouldn't let me change it. "sweepings" are the crumbs and trash bits that get swept up from the floor.
"Sweeping" can be a gathering of anything, like the ppl left after a war.
Not at all the same thing!🤔
I would love to see how Highclaire Castle was in 1861- 1865. It was great I'm sure.
I have seen it for 6 times know the script by heart love it
Lots of folks got you beat 😂🤭🤭lost track of the number of times 😂
Dont be embarrassed this is great series i watch it over over
The series was, in many features, a more reserved Brideshead Revisited though more contained. But the art of it was the perfect casting to fit the incredible writing framed by the expertise of Maj- Gen. Hon Alistair Bruce of Crionaich whose real life involvement with Her Majesty, the late bereaved Queen, of happy memory, placed him in a unique position to authenticate the fine authorship of Lord Fellowes who daily rubbed elbows with aristocracy.
Raquel Cassidy is such a great actress. Love her in Downton Abbey ! ! ! 🙂
The auction was heartbreaking. Here is the grandma here are the birthday gifts all going into some stranger’s hands.
The stranger might be buying for gifts for their grandma, which was bought from a previous owner who might be a stranger as well
Brideshead Revisited was prompted by the plight of the Grand country houses and the fear that they would all be lost.
I could never imagine living like this!
I’m afraid it would bore me to tears. I love the show but I would not want to be any of those characters or live the way they did.
My favorite part about the ending was the switch between Edith and Mary, with Edith becoming the more beautiful and fashionable as the show goes on, and shooting well past Mary to become a Marchiones.
Gerard Collins Edith was a bitch!
@@AloeVeraForTheSoul No more than Mary was.
@@AloeVeraForTheSoul Mary was the bigger bitch, momentarily ringing Edith's life out of bitterness. She was the one who drove Edith that far.
I agree. Mary felt entitled from the day she was born.
Having binge watched this series again, my first time view was that Mary was the bitch and screwed over Edith. However, my second viewing changed my opinion, I think Edith was the bitch and was very jealous of Mary and worked to screw her over (she nearly ruined over the pumuk incident). I also observed Edith's jealousy may have started over the first heir to downton, Patrick (who died on the Titanic) as I think Edith was in love with him and he was earmarked for Mary and Mary didn't even want him.
is it only british television that can do period drama ? love it, love it, love it
Not at all, the French can do some marvelous things too but the British set the bench mark very high indeed!
Korean period dramas are great
There are some great Swedish and Danish historical dramas as well.
There is an Australian period drama called A place Called home that was really good. They also have Frannie Fischer's murder mystery
@@zari2662 "Miss Fischer's Mysteries" in the U.S.!
I love the Downton Abbey series and the movies…
I love THIS family,it sometimes feel as if I was in the house I see me in so many of the caricatures I oh so relate. I really hate they're taking it off of Netflix😮😢❤
I am totally with you I tried to watch it to see if they would let it run over NOT! 🥲 I ALSO LOVE THIS FAMILY I FEEL LIKE I'M RIGHT THERE AT THE DINNER TABLE 🤣🤣🙏💕
Oh my I just talked to myself WOW 🤣🤣🤣💕🙏🤣🤣🤣
I purchased the full DVD set during the pandemic but have yet to watch it. I don't want to race through it but give it the time and attention it deserves. RUclips continues to pique my interest and I look forward to the day I can start the series from the beginning.
I knew Sir John but couldn't place him. Then i saw Mr Wickham from the only version of Pride and Prejudice worth watching!!!
What is so funny about the open house, is that no one knows anything about the history of the house they live in, or the art around them. The only one who knows is Mosely.
This was such a brilliant series. I must watch it again. ❤❤ I have to say that every episode has me in tears. Is that age?
What I found so curious about this episode is when the visitors would ask who's that pointing to a painting, and the Crawleys would say gosh I dont know...??REALLY? ITS YOUR house and your relatives...
My favourite house to have visited is Muncaster Castle where the all the stories in the audio guides are narrated by the family - including their opinions on the behaviour of their ancestors. There's also a good chance of meeting a member of the family whilst you're there.
I did research a couple of years ago and the family didn't know like 80% of their painting because it was not signed, they don't know the decade lmao (which easy to tell based on fashion)
I always loved how branson became part of the fabric of the family even after they lost sybil
Wishing you a speedy recovery. You are a real trouper!
Beautiful
Moseley was definitely ment to be a teacher at the school I think
... meant
12:48 - Mrs. Hughes speak was very kind!
It was hilarious… “full marriage “ 😂😂😂
Thank you for uploading this
There was a man who lived in one of these big houses, which is now owned by the National Trust. He bought lots of hand' crafted artifacts (?) from the houses that were selling up. His collection eventually filled the whole house and he lived in what was little more than a stone' built shed.
...Snowshill Manor is the name of the place.
I haven't seen the Gwen upstairs; I did not go ahead with the full seasons. But it is very emotional to watch this video, a lot of changes, upgrade, downgrade, in - out. It is the life, it is what it is.
Wonderful
Just me: I think all the actors look so much better in historical costume especially hairstyles.
Except Edith/Laura Carmichael, I think. They purposely made her dowdy and plain, but she’s gorgeous in real life!
@@elissalombard7021 yes they really had to work to make her look bad too
Carson is sexy in real life...
@@elissalombard7021 Lol not really. She had some nice outfits -mainly the red backless dress. She's just not as pretty as the actress who plays Mary. She looked less fashionable than Mary but many women their age and class weren't fashionable (you can see this is the scene when Mary is a restaurant table and exclaims that she is not a war widow).
Edith s hair was awful, even towards the end, I can't understand why they never changed her stupid hair/wig.
Mary went and cut her hair and it suited her very well, why the hell didn't they do anything for Edith s hair? Smh🤦♀️
Cora s hair was also kind of meh.
WW1, universal suffrage and 1929 had significant impact. But it was WW2 and the unexpected maintenance of war time tax levels into post war (to fund the Welfare state, NHS and war debt) that finally ended the means to run a large stately home as a family home. Full employment also meant rising pay and a large staff was impossible to find or finance. Most owners also had Edwardian values, that thought tax avoidance to be immoral: Tax planning and diversification has much to do with how the ones surviving today did it. Houses appropriated during WW2 were not often returned in good condition, needing significant rennovation and repairs. Few realise quite how extreme post war austerity was, which lasted until 1950s.
Today the mega yachts has replaced the stately home eventually these will be replaced but wealth creates these amazing show pieces
My friend in the 80s had a brother that liked to enjoy his long holidays as if back home so he bought into a share of a manor house that was quartered with a great look over a huge valley in the Cottswolds that didn't have much to loose as the lawn in the front of the house was separated from the outlaying pasture by a ha ha or ya ya, one of those ditches from the high side you would not even notice until you fell over the descended portion from the approach. When I did my semester abroad I looked at their furniture and found with the china that they had taken the sugarspoon from their mother's sterling set. Don't know how long they enjoyed it as my friend was gone by the time he was 71 and his brother was in much worse health and a good 7 yrs older. I wonder of the otherside of the road driving di him in as one of the other students in my group had planned to visit his son in the program and before i knew it the parents after starting out their driving portion of their visit in the cotswolds had returned after an unfortunate incident driving. He probably was on the wrong roadside?
One of the best shows of the time in my opinion, it’s important that people understand it was NOTHING like this in real life for those type of people ..the Drama is all part of the entertainment factor...
What "type of people"? The aristocrats?
How do you know?
You realize this show and the writing is heavily researched, right? And you are just an internet know-it-all windbag.
Love the dancehall shirt!! 🇯🇲❤️🇯🇲❤️
So nice...
Mary should have ended up with Charles Blake. They had chemistry.
I'll never understand why they married her off to a wet noodle. Charles, at the very least could have held a candle to Matthew.
Charles could have kept Downton solvent, too--an issue close to Mary's heart.
Couldn't agree more. He was so much more interesting and seemingly compatible with Mary. But there would still have been room for tension due to their differing views about the estate
Loved the series , almost like family! But its still hard for women. Have a job, look after the children, cook, clean, wash and scrub, Never ending! While my husband rows, plays basketball and loves to go fishing each weekend. And most weddings now are smaller and more intimate!
Sorry I had to read your post several times, first I thought you were trolling... So why do you accept the situation, you being responsible for everything at home (as it sounds)?
Sorry, but that's not a marriage. It seems, you are the housekeeper for him, not his partner in life.
Why don't you go out too, regularly, while he looks after his children?
Tineke Williams You need to have a serious talk with your husband. He was obviously brought up to be waited on hand and foot and needs a big wake up call.
that's bare minimum... why don't you try provide financially fully and told him to take care of children, otherwise you can't complain. he put roof over ur head... while you whine because you have to clean house that he bought
I like that;
"Mary wants to do the things that society is against. But, doesn't want to give up that society"
Mary, does have that cognitive dissonance.
@ 9:30 Robert -- Ha! What did he think about all of the women working in service and on farms being "worn out"
Or, for that matter, the immense responsibility that Mrs. Hughes, the housekeeper, had to manage.
Land, people, the family has been (successfully) operating this Nation's affairs for well over four centuries... thank you, kindly?
It is sad to see the belongings going away.
Downtown Abbey is second only to Gone With The Wind. Just brilliant acting and story line.
Totally agree. It proves that wonderful pictures can be made without all the vulgarity & trashiness. That we have now.
Would prefer this with sound. Guessing has some points --- but on the whole would prefer to be able to tune in to the dialogue too. Thank you.
Stellar television, and the movie was almost as good.
What I like most is not so much the differences between upstairs and downstairs rather than the things they share. The women are looking for more equality and freedom to choose their path in life. The men are trying to cope with an everchanging post great -war period that is shaking up the powerstructures, where women are more and more of influence. This historical accuracy in social devellopment that is within the storyline, is to be applauded, and is one of the many contributions to the succses of the series. Downton Abbey just hits the mark on so many levels!
11:10 - Interesting comment regarding wedding. The end for some.
😂
I love watching Downton Abbey because it makes me stop and think that's how life works in England 🇬🇧 compared to the United States 🇺🇸 as being a head of time 1]
No. America is running now how Downton and the UK used to run in 1900. America taxing working class too much, which keeps them in their place. Fly the flag to keep them thinking they are part if it - but they're not.
If you really want to acknowledge determined strong women give due credit to Eileen Adkins and Jean Marsh, the original creators of Upstairs Downstairs of which most of Downtown Abby's plot is based upon.
....anyone with a brain can figure it out... so i didn't see anyone giving credit anytime they copied from romeo and juliet or other plot story

I love love this show and watched it so many times. I only have one criticism - the Crawleys were way too kind to their staff. I bet staff were treated very badly back in those times.
Oh, come on!
It is not like everybody treated their servants badly.
Idk you wouldn't want your staff up and quitting on you all the time wouldn't benefit you.
@@tristantries9211 Exactly.
A minority may have done but most employers saw their staff as part of the family. In some houses generations of the family grew up supported by generations of servant families. Check out Chatsworth for instance. It was usually mutual respect and care.
@@tristantries9211 Exactly. My mother was brought up in a very old fashioned way. She had a couple of people working for her for about 40 years.
Highclere Castle & houses like that will cease to exist when the public inevitably gets bored of it.
English homes will always be of interest. The Royal family & the aura around all that it holds with traditions & culture.
0:27 Mr. Wickham!
