Farewell Downton

I love ❤️ saying Downtown Abbey

Photos from the premiere.

Wobbert takes a moment to speak out about Gaza at premiere.

Allen Leech looks too thin. No ass to grab onto!

R4, back when Allen Leech was on "Rome" as Agrippa, he had quite the chubby body on him:

You must have the chiseled body of a professional athlete if you're calling that guy "chubby", r5. Perfect example of porn rotting someone's brain.

R6, Allen Leech looked a bit out of shape to be playing a rugged Roman general. I'm not saying he had to be ripped, but I remember some of the comments about his slightly flabby British body on the 'Rome' threads at the time.

Btw, as for me, I'm not a professional athlete, but I do work out and have a more toned body than Leech does.

That heavy coat McGovern is wearing on the magazine cover appears out of place in front of what I assume is a summer garden.

I wish Cora had died instead.

His flabby Irish body.

They keep banging on about how this is the finale and they are done making Downton movies.

However, it may all just be semantics. They may be done making Downton movies but not done making a weekly series. Perhaps a series reboot centered around George and WWII. The original characters on the peripheral or recurring.

Or a prequel, movie or series, centering around Violet and Robert and Cora's courtship and early marriage with all new actors.

^Agreed; given how wildly popular DA is with the frau-set, they are going to keep beating this dead horse as long as possible. Series about WWII have been done to death, but given the interest in the Gilded Age, I could see DA prequel in which stupid broke Robert goes trolling to America to find himself a wealthy dollar princess to subsidize his crumbling pile of a home and crabby mother.

Unfortunately, this will be akin to the Eagles’ Hell freezes Over Tourssssssssssss

McGovern looks every inch the star in that cover photo.

Do featured celebrities have any say about the outfits chosen for them to wear in magazine shoots? So many of the outfits McGovern is photographed in for the Tatler issue are horrendous, to the point of comedy.

Link R15?

I said “farewell” long ago.

R16 The article link was posted by OP. Photos from the magazine are within the article.

I recently started re-watching it on Prime. Can't believe it is 15 years old.

But it's nice to stream all at once - which wasn't an option when it came out (?). Also I already know the characters - so the first few episodes gel more and I'm not trying to figure out who is who.

Forgot how good it was. Dan Stevens was so hot. And the Dowager was right to get annoyed with Mrs. Crawley - she inserted herself into EVERYTHING and was smug as shit about it.

You better believe it. They also have a say about what they wear in their movies and shows.

I think Elizabeth looks fantastic in that pic. She looks so frumpy on DA most of the time,even in beautiful antique dresses. So glad to see Hugh put some weight back on. He looked ghastly thin ! R7 do you also have a huge dick snaking down your pants leg ? Hence Alan will ALWAYS be chosen over you Dear one.
