synopsis

This prestigious ensemble brings the world of Downton to life with splendour and passion. Set in England in the years leading up to the First World War Downton Abbey tells the story of a complicated community. The house has been home to the Crawley family for many generations but it is also where their servants live and plan and dream and they are as fiercely jealous of their rank as anyone. Some of them are loyal to the family and committed to Downton as a way of life others are moving through on the look out for betterment or love or just adventure.

The difference is that they know so many of the secrets of the family while the family know so few of theirs. But for all the passions that rage beneath the surface this is a secure world serene and ordered and at first glance it seems it will last forever. Little do they know family or staff that the clouds of the conflict that will change everything are already gathering over their heads.
