Downton Abbey Upstairs: The Real-life Partners Revealed | ⭐OSSA

Dame Maggie Smith was actually my favorite character. The writers did such a great job creating Violet Crawley. The snarky quips were fabulous. She actually made me laugh out loud many many times.

[@mackenziejoelle3226]

From a medical standpoint, it is actually possible for Matthew's spinal cord injury to have "healed", especially in those days when there was not as advanced medical practices. Spinal cord bruising or other muscular damages can result in moderate to temporary immobilization. As the swelling goes down and he healed it was found that he was not truly paralyzed. It's a real thing, check it out.

[@sjm2726]

Mackenzie Masden Lady Sybil also didn’t die whilst in labour. She passed away in the night after the birth. From Eclampsia. The symptoms of ore-eclampsia were argued over during her labour. Shame the narrator hadn’t done her homework on both Sybil & Matthews medical conditions.

Not wanting to sound ungallant, but I've admired Maggie Smith's acting ability for decades. She has a unique quality that impresses itself into every film role she's ever been in. She gets high points on timing, and she knows the value of a pause or a moment of silence.

Maggie Smith is one of the cornerstones of the Harry Potter franchise. I find it implausible that she could have ever have been/remained anonymous, in addition to her entire, great body of work/skills in the t.v. and film industry. She is truly brilliant :D ♡

@@AussteigenBitte so true. I remember that some where too. partly cause many people born in the late 80s and 90s /onwards know Maggie through Harry potter. Which lead people to watch a lot of the actors' works. Despite many of these actors and actresses had huge careers before hand

She has said that Harry Porter is the reason she lost her anonymity. Even children know her name and ask her stupid questions in the streets.

[@jackieotway8513]

Dame Maggie has been in film and tv for over 60 years, so I don't think you have captured her true fame that does her justice here. Oscar winner for Best Actress in Prime of Miss Jean Brodie as well as great performances in many known movies from the 60s through through present, the has had a brilliant career well before Harry Potter was ever written. Created a Dame by Elizabeth II in 1990, she is truly a legend of cinema!

[@王宇轩-n8b]

[@evelynbonner3908]

Absolutely love Downton Abbey. So many full bodied characters played by talented actors.

[@LadyLocket]

Do the producers actually know just who DAME Maggie Smith is???? I get the feeling very little research was done on this video. Her greatness may not have been so well known and loved in the US until Downton but doesn't mean she was some jobbing, bit-part actress (Harry Potter anyone?). In the UK she's a national icon and has been a revered actress on screen, film and stage for decades.

[@ourblueheavendesign]

Lady Locket Here in America as well!! Been watching her since the sixties! She won Academy AWard for Prime of Miss Jean Brody! This video is foolishly lacking!

[@jamyl2252]

Are you kidding Lady Locket? Of course the producers knew who DAME Maggie Smith was!! She has won five BAFTAs, in America two Oscars, four Emmys, and a Tony Award. Maggie Smith meant that without make up, she could blend in but after Downton, she was known all over the WORLD!!

My absolute favourite actress was Dame Maggie Smith ❤ her one liners are legendary and her character is one I think every family has one in the family be it an elderly Aunt or Grandmother..A lady of formidable stature and witt and of course wisdom. My second favourite is Michelle Dochorty as Lady Mary. She is just perfect for the part and plays it to perfection with just the right amount of strength but lso with that vulnerability that endears her to us all. It was tragic the way her real life mirrored her character's life on screen 😪 💔 Downton Abbey is my favourite period drama but I've always loved Brideshead Revisited as well. Can't wait for the new serious of Downton.

[@rianaengelbrecht7092]

[@mylenekellerman2413]

We watch downton abbey episodes periodically and love each and everyone of them; it would have been preferable if characters like Mathew Crawley had gone overseas to fulfill certain duties and obligations for a long period of time and then brought them back later to the drama series so we could enjoy seeing them again rather than killing them in the series. Maybe you can have an identical twin brother of Mathew be brought in the series or movie and bring out that Isobel hid that little secret. In that way Dan can return and Penelope can be happy again! Please bring this classic elegant show back…. Thanks.

[@joanies6778]

Ashamedly, I am new to Downton Abbey. How did this jewel ever slip by me? I had never watched it until this past weekend when E Network ran a 24/7 marathon of seasons 1-6. I was curious what all the hubbub was about, so I watched, rapidly glued at every turn and cliffhanger, and now I AM HOOKED! After viewing all 6 series, I watched the first movie via On Demand, and now am going to watch the new movie this week at the theater. Surprised Dame Maggie Smith felt anonymous,when hers was the only face I recognized. Violet is my favorite character throughout, but I have quickly grown fond of so many of the characters... rooting for their turning around to achieve true love and successes. What a fabulous series and superbness throughout! 💖💖💖💖💖 I am so excited to see the new movie, I am making a long distance drive just to see it. 🤗
