Thomas Barrow | What Future?

Trigger warnings for attempted suicide, suicide and homophobia. But you all know that if you've watched the show. Spoilers for all seasons.
Give Thomas Barrow a boyfriend 2k19. More precisely September 2k19. Can't wait for the movie and I hope Thomas has a big part in it. The last 2 quotes in this are me @ him.
Everybody’s currently vidding Game of Thrones and Endgame in super high quality right after they’re coming out and here I am with this old stuff. Is the fandom even still alive?
Anyway, I started watching Downton Abbey over a month ago and worked on this for about 3 weeks. I hope it doesn't feel too crammed. I didn't even use all the scenes or voice overs I wanted. Also, the main reason I made this is that Thomas barely has any fan videos. He's only my second favorite character after my sweet boy Matthew who I love with all my heart but Matthew and Mary have a lot more videos than him, so I figured I'd make one with Thomas first. I still want to make one or two with Mary and Matthew but I don't know when and I also don't have a song for them yet. I have a few other videos planned too, like Tony Stark (since a long time), Jaime and Brienne, Jorah Mormont, Daredevil, Ward Meachum, Faramir and maybe Martin Riggs. Apropos Riggs, I got the song and a few editing ideas from this video: • Martin Riggs ✘ focus o... .
Please excuse the shitty quality of some of the scenes but I couldn't get them any better from the DVDs. I tried fixing the coloring of every single one of them many (!!) times and this is the best I could do.

Thomas is one of the best and most complex characters. He says and does such terrible things that you can't help but hate him. Then he says or does something so kind and your heart aches for him because he is so lonely and unhappy. He's one of my favorite Downton characters because he's so multi-dimensional. Villain, victim, vulnerable, kind...he's so many things!

[@xializ2357]

metro121482 And most of all, he’s so handsome!

[@lovemyself6441]

And so is every person in real life. Real world doesn’t have hero and villain. We all are villain sometimes and sometimes hero.

[@AceAutistic]

One of my favourite lines was him saying "I'm not foul." There was such self acceptance we rarely see from Thomas because of how beaten down by life he is.

[@id3794]

I think that just makes him choosing conversion therapy later on all the more tragic imo.

[@mollydoesstuff6255]

this is honestly the best thomas video i’ve ever seen, i’m sat here sobbing! god it feels good to watch this knowing thomas may finally get happiness in the movie though!!

[@svclana4ever]

Aww thank you so much! And yeah, I'm very hopeful for the movie. I actually teared up the first few times I watched the trailer because the Thomas scenes made me so happy :')

[@franckcoste3889]

Thomas is my favourite character. At the beginning of the show I didn't know if I would like him or not, but after many and many episodes, I understood that he was very unhappy and that he deserves better.

[@priam9376]

I recognize myself so much in Thomas. I love this character.

[@tamarbeker1701]

Yup!

[@reign8428]

girl your editing is **_kisses fingers and flicks them into the air like a proud italian chef_**

[@svclana4ever]

Why, thank you! ^-^

[@tullia9361]

Since I suppose that our Thomas won’t appear in DA 3rd film… can we all start a petition for a Mr Barrow’s spin-off?? What an amazing character. I’m not ready to let him go

[@goodowner5000]

Where do I sign?! 🗒🖋

[@uj.official]

We gotta see his past !! Signed!!

[@erinmacdonald5433]

So good!!! This video makes me cry so much. I loved Thomas right from ep 1 because Rob James-Collier did such an incredible job playing him!! He brought out his humanity and his suffering and you have captured it all so well here. Thank you!

[@svclana4ever]

Ahh thank you so much!! I'm happy you like it. And even that it made you cry lmao. I agree, Thomas is such a brilliant character and Rob was the perfect choice for him 💖

[@abigailhaslam1845]

A man so full of love treated poorly by society Thomas will forever be my favourite character not because he is perfect but because he is real and in pain I see myself so much in him the way he pushes people away because he never wants to get hurt and realises too late he just wants to be loved

[@outcastdefenselawyer93]

And im crying again over Thomas barrow. I love this character so damn much. Thank you for making this masterpiece

[@zebritah1]

I really felt for this character and actually can't blame him for all the wrong did he made. I cannot imagine how it must have been for him at that time. Having to hide who you are, not being able to love who you want and knowing you are rejected for the world by that, to the point you think there is something wrong with you. I would have grown resented and mean as well.

[@rp7912]

Thanks for compiling this video. Brought me to tears. Barrow, in my opinion, is the most complex and original character in Downton, infused with humanity and deep sadness.

[@shesh1614]

omg im crying thank you for this masterpiece, im so glad that people so interested in his story TT the best character of all in downton abbey

[@noahwords]

I’ve watched this edit over and over again, and I know I will watch it many times more, and yet it is still better than I remembered every single time.

[@svclana4ever]

Omg that's one of the kindest and most motivational things anyone has ever said about a video of mine. Thank you so much!

[@EllaLovesMusicc]

Bless you for making this!!

[@darnitmillie]

This was so well edited! I'm so excited for the movie because it looks like we might finally get some happy thomas and its honestly what he deserves.

[@fantasy_worlds]

I've just noticed here are so many scenes I haven't seen... like the one he's dancing with Edith and that girl from the kitchen... and many others... I have to re-watch the series again, CLOSELY O_O

[@svclana4ever]

Tbh I don't remember where exactly they're from either. I only know that the one with Daisy is from season 1^^ It seems like I have to rewatch the whole show too :D

[@HannahLucyBlake]

This is one of the best Thomas Barrow videos I've seen and I watched a lot of them. The song and the editing was perfect, I'm definitely gonna rewatch it.

[@svclana4ever]

Aww thank you so much!

[@deborahgreene6422]

Thank You! This is My favorite Thomas Barrow video ! I cried, The climax was so Beautiful!!

[@svclana4ever]

Thank you so much! The bathtub scene was actually the very first thing I edited and after that the sequence leading up to it.

[@KatieMH]

Omg this Video is amazing the way you used the song with the clips and that build up to the tub scene so good you used everything so beautifully.

[@svclana4ever]

Thank you for the compliment and for pointing that out! I'm glad you like it :)

[@eldervex]

I’ve always loved Thomas, he’s a jerk most of the time but I truly love him, and I’m so happy that he did find happiness

[@sj2024-u5e]

gorgeous compilation...truly one of the best Thomas videos :)

[@AkkrinWraith]

Great video. I've been waiting ages for someone to do a new Barrow vid. :)

[@svclana4ever]

Thank you! And you're right, there's a serious lack of Thomas vids. Hope the revival of the fandom via the trailer changes that a bit. Also yay for Stargate Atlantis! :D

[@AkkrinWraith]

@@svclana4ever Hopefully we'll see tonnes of Thomas vids after the film is released. ;) Double "yay" from me for SGA. :D

well now we have seen the movie....and the joy of the moments for Thomas were overwhelming

[@svclana4ever]

Thanks for watching 😊

[@emilypinching1731]

This is absolutely gorgeous.

[@ursoul111]

It's beautiful, I can't stop watching it. Thomas is my favorite character since I started watching this series, actually I watch Dowton Abbey for him, I know he manipulates people, he is mean, he lies and blackmails everyone but now I can see that it was not easy for him too, he finally cut his own veins. It is sad that no one could understand him as he is, he wanted a family, friends, a person who would love him, despite his character, he is a decent guy who knows how to behave in a difficult situation and although no one knows it, he also has feelings.

[@RitwikaDatta]

Absolutely loved this edit! ❤

[@Tom-zr6yn]

i’ve watched this so many times, so well made and goodd. the song choice is perfect. thank you for sharing this!

[@svclana4ever]

Thank you! 😊

[@iamsanna4567]

He went from being the character I hated the most to my favoutite character!

[@miramoerma4975]

What an amazing video! Ppl who still think that Thomas is pure evil after watching this video are more unkind than he is.

[@katebarton1018]

I love him so much, his character is one of the best I’ve ever come across Spoiler for the movie: When the guy from the queens staff (I forget his name) went to save him from jail I was so happy I accidentally scratched myself rather badly 😅 I was able to control my self slightly better by the time Thomas was the one who got a kiss 💙 Thomas truly deserves to be happy

[@laurahyvonen7063]

i just love him 🥺❤️

[@svclana4ever]

@@fantasy_worlds When you wrote that comment my roommate and I were watching Downton Abbey in the cinema (it was my second viewing). She binged all seasons in the last couple of days (using the DVDs I essentially bought for making this video) and is a big Thomas fan herself now, so we cheered for him together :) As did the two girls sitting next to us. And whoa thanks again, I highly appreciate that

[@fantasy_worlds]

@@svclana4ever same here! I've stopped watching DA series after the 2nd season (personal reasons, no TV for several years), and suddenly YT suggested me some video with Thomas Barrow and I ended up binging all seasons several times in a row just for Thomas' sake, and learned that there's actually a movie out!! Not yet out in my coutry, and I hate to watch it in my country's language, so I have to wait till it's out in DVD, which is Dec 17 and I CAN'T WAIT. Though I already know that Thomas needs a second movie to actually be 100% happy. :)

[@MsNuudeli]

Where is that 0:31 clip from? I've never seen it before. Beautiful video!

[@svclana4ever]

Thank you! That scene is from season 3 episode 8 after Carson tells Thomas that he won't give him a reference. BUT here's the thing: For some bizzare reason it's only in the German Amazon version, not in the English one and not on the DVDs. Also, it's in episode 5 in that one because they are cut differently and season 3 only has 6 episodes. It's just a short scene of Thomas going to a cemetery and crying for a bit. There's another one right after O'Brien tells Alfred to stand back and enjoy Thomas' fall and there's a little part after that where Mr. Bates asks her whose fall she's talking about and she says she can't tell, she doesn't remember. That part with Mr. Bates is also not included on the DVDs or the English Amazon version. Like ??? I'm not sure if there are other scenes that are just missing because I was only focussing on the ones with Thomas but I distinctly noticed the absence of those two. Anyway, sorry for the lengthy response but this is super weird.

[@Acrum99]

@@svclana4ever Hm, strange. I remember watching that scene online, and it was an English version. Perhaps it was only cut in the Amazon version?
