Say Farewell To Downton Abbey

As their story comes to an end this March, audiences will find out the fates of these cherished characters, including Lady Mary (Michelle Dockery), Lady Edith (Laura Carmichael), Tom Branson (Allen Leech), and more. “We are indebted to our UK partners for making a show which will go down in television history, not just for its impeccable writing, acting, and production values,” said Masterpiece Executive Producer Rebecca Eaton, “but most importantly, for its enormously warm-hearted audience appeal.”
