Downton Abbey Story

This is the most famous British historical drama that shows the comparison and the lives of an aristocratic family, the Crawley family, and their servants. The story was set in between the time of 1912 and 1926. This series also shows the growth of the British social hierarchy as great events happened.

You will see the life of aristocratic families and the era of the Titanic, World War I, and the Spanish influenza pandemic. This show basically portrays the class difference and the relationship between the aristocrats and the servants. The episodes of Downton Abbey showed the parallel lives of aristocrats and their servants. It shows if an event is happening in the life of a rich woman, then it is also happening with the servant woman. If the rich woman cries, then maybe you will see the servant woman also cries. So, it is basically a show based on a comparison between the two classes of society.

This story is set in a time when great events were happening in the world. So, with the basic plot of showing the two classes of society, Downton Abbey also shows these great events one by one in every season. And pictures the growth of British social hierarchy. In the first season, the series shows the event of sinking Titanic. Then in season 2, it focuses on the three events including World War I, the Spanish influenza pandemic, and the Marconi scandal. The Irish War of Independence is shown in season 3, and the fourth season deals with the Teapot Dome scandal. Season 5 focuses on the 1923 British general election and the Beer Hall Putsch. Season 6 introduced the rise of the working class and the decline of the British aristocracy.

As there is no season 7, there wouldn’t be cast either. The show’s cast is huge, so we will share with you some of the members of the whole series, including all six seasons. The cast is almost the same for all seasons, which are as follows:

Hugh Bonneville as Robert Crawley, Elizabeth McGovern as Cora Crawley, Michelle Dockery as Lady Mary Crawley, Laura Carmichael as Lady Edith Crawley, and Jessica Brown Findlay as Lady Sybil Crawley. Maggie Smith as Violet, Samantha Bond as Lady Rosamund Painswick, Dan Stevens as Matthew Crawley, Penelope Wilton as Isobel Crawley, Allen Leech as Tom Branson, and David Robb. Lily James as Lady Rose McClare, Shirley MacLaine as Martha Levinson, Tom Cullen as Lord Gillingham.

Julian Ovenden as Charles Blake, Mathew Goode as Henry Talbot, Harry Hadden Paton as Bertie Pelham. So, this was the Crawley family. Now, jump onto the servants, or we can say, the household staff, that includes:

Jim Carter as Mr. Carson, Phyllis Logan as Mrs. Hughes, Rob James Collier as Thomas Barrow, Siobhan Finneran as Miss O’Brien. Brenden Coyle as Mr. Bates, Joanne Froggatt as Anna, Kevin Doyle as Mr. Molesley, Thomas Howes as William Mason. Rose Leslie as Gwen Dawson, Amy Nuttall as Ethel Parks, Matt Milne as Alfred Nugent, Raquel Cassidy as Baxter, Ed Speleers as James Kent, Michael C. Fox as Andy Parker, Andrew Scarborough as Tim Drewe. Lesley Nicol as Mrs. Patmore, Sophie McShera as Daisy, and Cara Theobold as Ivy Stuart.

The role of Dan Stevens is now finished as Matthew Crawley. As the contract of Dan did not renew by the makers, also, the makers did not want to cast him again. So, if season 7 comes (probably not), then you will not find Matthew Crawley.

  1. I usually do not like “Period Pieces” but I am addicted to this one. I just watched all six seasons and I will watch it again.

    Absolutely loved everything about it. I am so sad it was discontinued. I would definitely vote to have it return.

  2. Oh my gosh, I am so sad to have just finished watching the finale. With everything going on in our world today, it was wonderful to let myself go into what felt to be a “kinder” “gentler” period. I anxiously await the movie to be released this spring. So disappointed there will not be another season!
