- Guy Dexter (Dominic West) makes a startling proposition that may save Barrow from a life of loneliness.
Downton Abbey: A New Era: In 1928, Tom Branson (Allen Leech), the Earl of Grantham's widowed son-in-law, marries Lucy Smith (Tuppence Middleton), the illegitimate daughter of and sole heir to Lady Maud Bagshaw, Queen Mary's lady-in-waiting. Violet Crawley (Maggie Smith), the Dowager Countess of Grantham, astonishes the family by revealing that long ago she was gifted a villa in the South of France by the Marquis de Montmirail, who has recently passed away. She is leaving it to her great-granddaughter, Sybbie, Tom's daughter with the late Lady Sybil Crawley, to ensure that she has a more equal social and financial standing to her cousins. The principal cast of the first film returned. Joining the cast are Hugh Dancy, Laura Haddock, Nathalie Baye, Dominic West and Jonathan Zaccaï.

"I hope you'll be as happy as our cruel world allows."
Almost a hundred years on and, though a lot of kindness has come about, the world is still largely a cruel one.
It's about time Thomas finely gets a chance to be happy and feel loved for who he really is.
For Thomas to get his happiness finally.....and for Lady Mary to be so understanding of his need for happiness.
This show. It is phenomenal in all aspects. But the actors and how they are so great......chef's kiss.
I want a sequel starring these two in 30s era Hollywood so bad...
I believe that’s called “Hollywood” made by Ryan Murphy
really? I mean not that id dislike any iteration of Downton abbey, but id much rather a prequel following the dowager and a young Robert and Cora lol
@@jeremyengalla6133 That wouldn't work, because the dowager would not be Maggie Smith, and that's just wrong.
Well, you’re gonna get one next September. :)
@@maxthecat14 lol you so right tho. Where else can you go now that they killed the dowager off
So not only does Thomas get the happy ending some of us have wanted - one that he's painfully earned in the last seasons of the show IMHO - he gets to live more honestly - something I didn't realize he wanted so deeply, but makes perfect sense in retrospect - and we see that Mary actually has come to value him and his capabilities, something that I didn't see in her when, in the previous film, she got Carson to take over for the royal visit.
And even as he's getting older, Dominic West is still handsome and very charming.
The only thing missing was a big old Hollywood kiss at the end
Downton is not a Hollywood film - it's British, dignity all the way
The term "Hollywood" is ubiquitous.
@@johnking5174 Well but he kissed Ellis in the first movie
Considering that Ellis dumped him Afterwards, i think He would have deserved a true loves kiss with Guy
@@johnking5174As much dignity as your teeth can permit.
@@lisawinter7842everything went wrong with all the guys Thomas kissed. So i guess big smiles at the end is good enough
I have watched this again and again. This scene is one of the great feel good experiences I’ve had in decades. I get butterflies in my tummy each time. It really is a beautiful moment.
I like Dominic West. He has that rare "thing" that makes some actors mesmerising.😊
I liked this movie, and love that Thomas got a happy ending, of sorts.
They have incredible chemistry
The kids are going to miss him and I think he will miss them
I am Sure Thomas and Guy are going to pay Downton a visit Form time to time 😉
But yeah he's going to miss them for sure
I know they're fictional but I would like to see these characters still together 45 or 50 years later when it's all nice and legal❤😊❤😊❤😊❤😊❤
Um...this was set in the 20s so they would be dead by the time that happens some 80 years later.
@@RocketeerAndRoll didn't it become legal in the late 60s or early 70s? I'm talking about them just being allowed to be together, not the marriage part.
@@jacquelineroque5707 homesexual only officially be removed as mental illness by WHO in 1990, so is not legal in the 60/70s, just as the LGBT movement go, Society become little more tolerance but still, not legal.
@@jacquelineroque5707 1967 to be specific. But him being a Hollywood star would mean he was basically immune to any prosection on that front and by extension Barrow. True they wouldn't be able to have any public displays of affection but it was much more of a free life than Barrow had in the past. And hopefully in the real world we will eventually get to where all people can state their love openly without fear.
Quentin Sidebottom who lives in Hancock Park....
tears of joy 😢 good for Mr Barrow ❤
I'm so glad he got a happy ever after ...but they should have had a big romantic kiss 😊
Yes 😭💛
I mean He kissed Ellis an was dumped by him in the end so he really would have deserved a true loves kiss with Guy 💛
I really hope they will have a guest appearence in season 7 👀
Considering Thomas moved to USA anyways, I wish Julian found a way to get him together (in movie 1) with Ellis. Maybe they could both resign & be business partners & roommates. Their chemistry was much better than these 2.
I came to comment the same thing that there was practically no Chemistry between Thomas and Guy Dexter. It was very disappointing. I was happy he found someone in the end but wish he had the same chemistry as he did with Richard Ellis.
@@-greentoadDon't forget Thomas recently got a Dear John letter, plus after that mistake with Jimmy and some others you can't blame him for being more cautious. Guy may have been also being discreet, being gay was still against law and he doesn't really know the people of the house.❤❤❤
I wish life was like that, but really was harsh and many times vicious..
Sweet and lovely and classy to watch.
Thomas barrow, my Roman Empire--this ending for him made me so happy.
It was a very romantic proposition for him guy is good to him
Your right, in a way Guy had asked Thomas to run away with him.
@@jacquelineroque5707 i Love Guy more than every other men Thomas ever... Well which word to use... Dated?
Guy was so carefull und patient with Thomas which was so beautiful to watch 💛
Tears of Joy .....
My question is what tripped Dexter's gaydar off. I looked for clues in their first two encounters, and other than showing interest in Dexter's career, Barrow was very discreet.
As a gay man myself, "gaydar" does exist and it is something that you have, you just sense it. It may sound stupid, I have experience of my gaydar being 99% correct.
Don't forget that incident with Jimmy not to mention that young man that ended up dropping dead in Mary's 🛏️ bed!! Clearly Thomas didn't want to make the same mistake for a third time!!!
Dexter is a professional actor. I think he is aware of body language and would pick up if there is an interest. He could of had discreet affairs already although he seems serious with Thomas
Normally I can tell If someone like me for the way they look at me. Its not obvious, and some people told me they can't do the same. I'm a woman, girls are not my thing, but i suppose its easier to a gay dude to know If someone else is gay If the person has interest in him, the exchange of looks can be very discreet and very informative.
I think Guy also has a certain confidence in moving through the world. While on one hand the higher up you are, the higher you have to fall, if there was a "gay scandal" surrounding him it seems unlikely someone of his social standing would end up in prison for being gay. Thomas, being working class, literally could, and so the stakes are higher and he has to tread more carefully... especially after the mishaps in early seasons. Guy may feel willing to take a few risks coming on to people. I love how he plays off the totally unnecessary smoothing out of Barrow's clothes like it was a normal thing to do, when it was "I'm just going to pet you for several seconds in case you weren't sure of where I was going with all this"😂
Bravo🎉
Thomas is so gunshy by coming on to so many men who were not gay. And he got kicked down for it and then falling for someone Ellis. And probably just having a very short-lived 1 week affair with him .
The the look on his face when guy leaves the room is priceless and it was one of shock and surprise and W. TF did he just ask me to go to the United States with him? He was like so surprised that in a good way. I don't think I've ever seen him so excited in as best way. They could ever see him as excited. I also think the problem with Thomas's character was that every young knew. Do you put men or Butler or valid that came into the house? He immediately was attracted to them. And that's where he ran into problems like he was very visual. And you can't be especially during that. of time coming on to every single young guy. So I think that's what that expression at the end of this was as though a rock hit him or something. He was like what someone literally wants me? Similar to like ellis. He the look on his face when he realized that ellis wanted him. It's almost like what you don't think you're cute enough to get any guy you want. He has a kissable mouth. I'll give him that.
"What's you real name?" "Quinton, Quinton Sidebottom", "that was a good decision!" lol !! .
Happiness finally!
I just think Thomas had that yearning look for Mr. Ellis though, more than Guy Dexter.
happiness
I'm not sure I would start a relationship with a boyfriend who wants me to be his valet and personal secretary. But I guess times were so cruel to gay men that this was the only acceptable compromise that Thomas could find without getting too much attention and raising too many suspicions.
At least he doesn't have to get pregnant. You didn't think your comment through before you said it, did you? That was the norm for women, so I don't know why you think being the wife is just a horror for Thomas.
Did you expect them to get married? I mean, at that time, it was a clever proposition.
you do realize that the big screen male actors were gay and the studios had them as roommates and fake girl friends during the 20's through the 60's right ? Rock Hudson with Doris Day and Tab Hunter and Connie Stevens as an example. According to my uncle he was friends with Tab Hunter, he never said how though.
That's what Thomas learned and what he's good at. Perfect disguise for a more intimate and equal relationship.
He was offering the part of lover/housewife. Same deal most middle class women got, though possibly more precarious.
Mary doesn’t take offense that he called serving the family/house a dishonest life.
no i think thomas was talking about being honest about expressing his sexuality, not his work at the house
That is not what he was talking about. He told her he had good years there.
Am I the only one who noticed that poor Thomas tends to be attracted to every male. That seems to come on to him or that he finds attractive or makes a move on him. Or he tries to make a move on his pen. Probably been at least 6 different guys. But you know he can only run into the people. He runs Int you. I think that. Dominic West is a very handsome guy and Barrow is cute. So I would have loved to see in a big kiss. Their kisses when he kisses a certain man. It's so quick for mench, kiss man. They don't make it until lingering kiss. Some shows half done that, but I guess in that particular error they were lucky to just get a small little kiss. PS Barrow has the utmost adorable smile. He could be a vampire in his next life I love those canine teeth
A faithful houseman for Daddy.
Did Thomas really go or did that fall thru ?
He does, he leaves with him, and it is a happy ending for Thomas for once - leading to speculation that Andy will become Downton's new butler.
@@johnking5174 whatever happen to the Royal servant that got Thomas out of jail after the cops raided the gay bar ??
@@xadam2dudex Never returned - Julian Fellowes seems to have forgotten him in the two year gap between when both movies were filmed.
@@johnking5174 Its to be expected. People move on, lose touch with one another. Just because he is not mentioned by name in the new movie does not mean the characters do not remember him.
@@johnking5174 Fellowes didn't forget. Thomas receives a letter from him in this film, which says he's getting married. Nice little scene between Thomas and Mrs Hughes/Mrs Carson.
Can anyone explain why they make? Daisy's character seemed like a such an airhead and that she could barely speak. Seems overwhelmed just by normal people and acts like a 15 year old actually acts like a 12 yr old. her barely able to soeak, and cries at anything. It's not a good character. I think no matter how young she was if she started at 16 or 18 she would be more mature than this actress is portraying. It's cringeworthy to watch.
Pooves and poovery.
“as our cruel world allows” 🥲 no you r crying!!!!!
Wish it was Richard Ellis same as last series he’s so much hotter and sexier
