The scene where Maggie Smith sits in a swivel chair and loses balance is when she goes to visit Matthew in his role as a lawyer to ask him to examine the entail.

She asks Matthew is the swivel is some new contraption. He replies not really, it was invented by Thomas Jefferson. She answers something to the effect "why can't a week go by without some fight with an American?"

Maggie Smith as Violet contending with new technology such as a telephone and a swivel chair were worthy choices for best acting moments. She can be funny even when she doesn't have a hysterical line to say.

Allen Leech said “when she could act with just the back of her neck” - referring to Dame Maggie Smith. Also goes to show how much he himself is underestimated when this lovely actor is so observant.

After Sybil died and there was a rift in the marriage of her son and daughter-in-law.. the scene where she had Dr.Clarkson talk to them about the fact that Sybil would probably would have died, regardless... she turned her back and they reunited; and even with her back to the audience, you could feel the depth of her emotion.. giving them privacy while silently weeping for them.

For a second there I confused Tuppence with a young Helena Bonham-Carter.
