Yes, the writing was amazing, but Maggie Smith is a treasure. I can't imagine anyone playing this character better.

She has portrayed many wonderful characters perfectly. Professor McGonagall, Mrs. Medlock, from the Secret Garden, Granny Wendy from Hook, Lady Grantham from this. She is a beautiful and worthy Queen and one of my favorite actors.

The Dowager was undeniably one of the best characters in Downton it is such a shame to see her go. No doubts Mary will turn out just like her but we wont go into much detail about that 😂. I hope in the 3rd film they go back to the style of the first few series as it focuses on Robert, Bates and Anna. Mostly Robert as i would like to find out about how he actually met Cora and how they fell in love a bit how they found out about the Dowager before she passed by going to the villa. Reason being i think it would show us a side of Robert that we haven't seen before and show us that apart from being serious and heartfelt he is actually really funny 😂. If they go back to focusing on Bates and Anna i'd like to see them and there son (John Bates Jr.) and how they live depending on the time jump there son going to school and how they manage there life aswell as both working at Downton. But that's just what i would like to see probably not going to happen but you never know! 😅
