Creative Emmy Congrats!

So the teams of Downton attended the Creative Emmys this past Saturday, and Ms. Nic Collins, who hails from the Hair and Make-Up team nabbed one of the shining awards! So a big congratulations to her and her amazing colleagues who primp and powder those beautiful faces of the many cast members on the show!

Heirs and Graces

Check out the Belfast Telegraph for an amazing interview with the cast members. I was going to post it here but coupled with some transferring difficulties, there are some season six spoilers that are better left to your own discretion if you so choose to click the link! I will however loudly protest a snippet of the interview in regards to the Wife...

"...[Michelle's] planning her wedding to dishy Cork-born PR director John Dineen, her partner of two years."

Gahh! My aching heart! Was that really necessary? Assholes.

Just a Great Collection of Shorts

Here are some wonderful little interviews and tidbits from the cast...

Is this just an American thing? Are we hardened kleptomaniacs because that's all I ever hear about is how stars on American shows take keepsakes...we're horrible immoral valueless imps on this side of the pond..




And people just buy the box set...no matter what quest you will inherit from Target to Wally World to Barnes and Noble...the road is treacherous but the rewards immeasurable





Oh and here's the Wife just chatting her beautiful face off and hinting at my wildest fantasy of a lesbian Lady Mary at 4:20. Click Here for the video

Newly Released Season Six Promos

More amazing season six stills have been released, teasing for the upcoming release in the UK, which is in 11 days and counting, and torturing the rest of us who are clearly the dregs of western society, unworthy of a simultaneous release with the beloved United Kingdom. Guys, I begged, I pleaded, I bitched and complained, to no avail. We are at the final season, and the US will still have to wait until January. Whatever, that's fine, keep your stupid early release! You won this war, but we kicked your asses in 1783 and we will always have that! I'm not bitter...

 The Wife..le sigh

Time to Say Goodbye

The trailer for Season 6 has been released...and will begin on September 20th in the UK

And Sadly, That's a Wrap

CLAP! That was the resounding and deafening noise of a whimsical era coming to an end. Laura and Samantha Bond finished their scenes on Friday, which undoubtedly left everyone in tears and a rock in the pit of my stomach. The cast attended the final wrap party for Downton Abbey on Saturday at The Ivy Hotel in London, and they all looked absolutely fabulous. As usual, below are a select few photos, please visit the Far Far Away site for HQs and many, many more photos than my humble blog can manage...

and a bonus video from Instagram Shananwoods who was apparently an extra on the show...interesting fact: The theme of Downton Abbey is called "Did I Make the Most of Loving You?"
