Photos Galore!

     The paps and on-lookers were out in droves as the cast stepped out into the sunshine to film a few scenes for the DA movie. From upstairs to team servants and everyone in between, the cast gathered for what appears to be a fantastic formal event adorned with top hats, military uniforms, and a couple cellphones to boot. In previous interviews the cast have gushed over filming scenes such as these because the actors who are typically in the kitchens of the abbey (aka Ealing Studios) are rarely together with the cast upstairs who film primarily at Highclere, therefore these scenes allow for a full cast reunion. Check out some of the great photos below and see if you can start to piece together the plot!

Emmy Extravaganza: The Wife!

Finally the amazing babes of the Far Far Away site, after multiple delays, have posted a wonderful collection of the Downton Ladies on Emmys night! So of course, you can head over to their site for beautiful HQ photos, because there's a ton of them, but for a brief peek you can check out some of my favorites right here

So first up is of course, The Wife, because there's simply no point in denying my boundless bias for this woman any longer. Not only did she look utterly breath-taking, but she was having a blast the whole night long
