    It seems that Laura Carmichael, who plays Lady Edith Crawley, has recently had a broken wrist but thankfully, her time in a cast has only been short so all should be well for the end of filming. Get well soon, Laura!

    ***Article contains spoilers***

    This article mentions a Christmas especial. Has anyone heard anything about it?

    I've read quite a bit about and heard who the guest actors are going to be but that's about all. It's not all that far away now. Laughing

    Can you share the information about the guest actors or is it considered a spoiler? Is there any other thread where I should ask about it? Thanks

    Oops, sorry! It might have helped if I had actually NAMED the actors but my internet was misbehaving and I told myself I would do it later.


    Ok, the excellent Nigel Havers will play an aristocrat by the name of Lord Hepworth who will be at Downton over the Christmas/New Year period. Sharon small from 'The Inspector Lynley Mysteries' will also join the cast as a maid to the visiting Lady Rosamund Painswick. (Samantha Bond.) Creator and writer, Julian Fellowes, says there may be more to come yet but if so, he will reveal more as the air date approaches. Sounds like fun! Laughing

    Julian Fellowes, Gareth Neame and Liz Trubridge have all hinted strongly that there will be a third series of 'Downton Abbey' which will take the Crawley family into the 1920s. Gareth Neame (Executive Producer) has stated in many interviews that with Fellowes' writing style, the series could definitely continue for three of four series, maybe more but Julian Fellowes himself, while hinting strongly that a third series is extremely likely, says that if it happens, the show would end after that. Amy Nuttall who plays Ethel Parks in series 2 has also hinted that there will be a third series by stating that 'my character will not be seen in the third series.'. Fellowes says the final decision has yet to be made so I suppose we will all just have to wait and see.

    I just read about that. We have had major storms and no internet for about a week so I am only just catching up. Great news!
