The continuing story of the Crawley family, wealthy owners of a
large estate in the English countryside in the early twentieth
century.
The royal visit of George V to Downton Abbey was based on his
real-life visit to Wentworth Woodhouse, a mansion in Yorkshire
which was used in this movie for the ballroom scenes at Harewood
House.
Bertie, the Marquess of Hexham, is offered and turns down the
position of assistant to the Prince of Wales (later Edward VIII)
on his trip to Africa in 1928. In real-life, the position was
taken by Alan (Tommy) Lascelles, cousin of Princess Mary (the
King's daughter) and Henry, Viscount Lascelles, whose
relationship is explored in the movie.
The movie is shot in the widescreen 2.39:1 "scope" aspect ratio,
unlike the television series, which was shot in 16:9.
As in this movie, in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
(2007), from the beginning, the characters played by Imelda
Staunton (Dolores Umbridge) and Dame Maggie Smith (Professor
McGonagall) were also at odds with each other. One of the things
Umbridge liked to do was throw around (and hold over others) the
names of the more powerful people with whom she had connections
in order to get things done her way.
Mark Addy, who portrayed King Robert Baratheon on Game of
Thrones (2011), played Mr. Bakewell in this movie. This makes
him the eighth actor or actress to have appeared on Game of
Thrones (2011) and Downton Abbey. The others are Rose Leslie,
Iain Glen, James Faulkner, Richard E. Grant, Simon Lowe, Martin
Walsh, and Ron Donachie all appeared on the television show.
