Am I the only one who smiles foolishly at Mary's words of "I won't answer unless you kneel down and everything?" And the look Matthew gives her and then sighs a bit, where his looks say "For you, I'll do everything" and then makes one of the sweetest proposals ever! I looooove Matthew and Mary together!
If Downton had ended after this episode, it would have been the most critically acclaimed series of all time! This beautiful scene is the climax of the whole series, and still brings a tear to my eye :')
Couldn't agree more! They should have ended with this episode and did a special or even a movie with the wedding and fast forward to a baby. The circle ended with Mary and Matthew's wedding. For me they lost the show after that
Omg had to rewatch this scene, why did Matthew have to die..and when that beautiful piece of music starts, omg my heart, he loved her sooo much...this scene was truely truely magical..what a masterpiece!
He brought out the best in Mary, and would have been such a wonderful ally for Edith! I wish we could have a "choose your own adventure" Downton where two different outcomes, one with Matthew and one with all of "Mary's men" culminating in Henry Talbot, were filmed in their entirety and viewers could choose which to watch.
The season 3 Christmas Special is probably the most powerful episode I've ever seen in any show. If it hadn't been for matthew and mary's will they/won't they relationship I might not have watched all the seasons. I have watched all six, but it just wasn't the same after season 3. Season 2 is still the best one, though. Having WWI as a backdrop worked wonders for the show and created a lot of drama, something that none of the other seasons had.
It's such a beautiful scene to watch, but there is romance everywhere you can see. People holding hands and people dressing up to go out is romantic. As a writer I hope to be able to write things as beautiful as this show does. It's sad that he did die, but when you saw how well suited they were you couldn't see them be divorced or cheat on each other or anything, him leaving the show (not renewing his contract) meant they had to kill him off. It's just sad that someone would want to leave a show that got them their big break. :(
Carey Coleman I agree, I know this reply is late but I seem to be the only person who cares that he left the show when Matthew finally seemed to be getting the life he desired, I felt like he didn't care enough about the fans, the show and most of all the character, I feel Matthew deserved more than that
Actually Dan was really tired of doing the same Brit character over and over again. He wanted to do more ( and he did after he left he went on to Brodway and to loose weight to do a psyco killer) but it's clear to me after seeing a lot of interviews, that he did not wanted Matthew to did. Saw one interview where he said he was extremely choked when he read it. I suppose he thought they would think of something to keep him apart and then bring him back to the finale. He seemed really opened to be persuaded to make special appearances and return in the end. So my saying? They were to radical about it.
They could not necessarily divorce them or do a cheating plot. Matthew could be needed in London. In America someplace else!! He could suffer an accident and be in a coma. ( and I think that is rad) . Truth is Downton is linger now. It should have ended long time !
After series 5 I agree. The 6th series was unnatural and disjointed with the developments and the rush to ends. If they would have had ended in two seasons they could have achieved a better end with consistant plot wiritng. Great dialogue does not ever excuse poor plots.
The writer and producers made a huge mistake by creating the flawless character like Matthew, without being certain that Dan Stevens would play the role until the end of the show. It was extremely unfair to the fans, as no one managed to fill his shoes, so it lost its thrill after 3rd season. I still gave it a chance, watched till the end, but 4-6 seasons were utterly disappointing. It’s just unbelievable that Mary who has experienced great love with Matthew, would get seriously involved with that superficial car racer. I understand how hard it was to fill the void left by Matthew’s death, but Mary didn’t have to find a new love interest. She could have become a strong, independent woman and cherish the memories she had with Matthew. I had a feeling that the writer didn’t want the show to become too tragic, so he almost ignored the mourning process that follows the death of the loved one. I know they portrayed Isobel Crawly as a strong woman who didn’t show her feelings, however it’s so odd how she almost never mentions him and is just cheerful most of the time. In the end it could have been a great show, had it ended with Dan Stevens’ departure from the show. This way they wouldn’t have to kill him off and Mary and Matthew could have been given the happy ending the fans deserved.
@@copperredable but he is a man. He should be a gentleman and give her his jacket even if he was cold too. Look, she is wearing a dress with off-the-shoulder; and he in a jacket, waistcoats and shirt
SPOILER 3rd season I just watched Matthew die. And because I'm stupid as fuck, here I am. I should rest before I do this to myself... I'm literally crying
Please let there be a season 3. And if so Dan Stevens better still be in it. Once I take a liking to a actor I become very stubborn and won't except a different actor.
SPOILERS AHEAD!! I saw Sybil just die and I had to go back to this to feel happy again... (I know there is more sadness to come so I won't read any of your answers to avoid spoilers)
No chemistry they trie to make this scene look like cliche proprosal in snow with mathew being awesome and this stupid actress trying too hard to act posh with fake voice. Hope they had lil chemistry
"We carry more luggage than the porters at King's Cross"....I just love that line!!!
"baggage"
"I haven't forgiven you because I don't believe you need my forgiveness" from perfect lines 101.
Am I the only one who smiles foolishly at Mary's words of "I won't answer unless you kneel down and everything?" And the look Matthew gives her and then sighs a bit, where his looks say "For you, I'll do everything" and then makes one of the sweetest proposals ever! I looooove Matthew and Mary together!
Nope. I smiled too☺
No you ar not
This is the most romantic three minutes in television history.
If Downton had ended after this episode, it would have been the most critically acclaimed series of all time! This beautiful scene is the climax of the whole series, and still brings a tear to my eye :')

Carrie Pross Agreed!
I will never forgive It's writers for killing off Matthew.
Sumit Singh Thakur It's not writer's fault . Dan wanted to move on next project. So writer decided to kill his character.
For Mary maybe
I never watched it after this episode.
One of the most beautiful scenes I ever saw in my life. I don't understand or accept why he died.
+Nah Silvia he was off to new york
The actor wanted out, I'm sure he wasn't meant to die in the original plot.
Ana Silvia like ikr
Stopped watching it after they killed him off!!!
@@catrionacorigan9931 I did the same, please keep watching because series 4-6 are so special... I like them very much.
If only the youth today were this romantic.
"He's going to propose, he's going to propose!"
will you do me the honor of becoming my wife... the best line ever to propose someone. I'm obsessed with the line
Those British... What a perfect English!
seriously? who gave the thumbs down? its such a lovely romantic scene!!!
Not all people are the same
duh😅
Omg had to rewatch this scene, why did Matthew have to die..and when that beautiful piece of music starts, omg my heart, he loved her sooo much...this scene was truely truely magical..what a masterpiece!
La più emozionante commovente palpitante e bellissima scena di promessa di eterno amore nella storia della televisione. Un capolavoro.
Can we pretend he didn't die?? Please??
BlueSwampyCraft Yes please.
He's mine so back off.
WHAT A SPOILER
I always do it 😢
Don’t know what you mean -Downton only had three seasons 😂
I dont have courage to watch season 4 after matthew died, it was so heartbreaking for me seeing how devastating Mary that time.
I am the same. I can only watch it now.
He brought out the best in Mary, and would have been such a wonderful ally for Edith!

I've watched this ten times over now and I still get teary eyed. And it makes me grin stupidly throughout my day!!

Beautiful and elegant , and Matthew is so handsome?❤️❤️
YES!!!!!! I'm so happy they are finally together, both of them with big smiles on their faces. They love each other so much and what a romantic kiss.
Well, it just doesn't get any better than this, does it?
I agree!
The best scene of proposal in the world. I have waiting that so much ❤️😍
God ! 2019 and i’m still watching this scene 😍😍😍😍 just love it !
This scene still gets me everytime
My heart jumped when he said 'No' at 1:01. Then I knew he was going to ask. I love this show!
Good job Dan Stevens is so amazingly adorable cause I don’t think I could have forgiven him for what happened to Matthew otherwise 😂
Oh how I miss this couple and show ❤
This clip still brings a tear to my eye. Even now...
This is the one time I will actually say that I shed a tear.😭❤️❤️❤️
My favourite scene in the series!
wonderful moment, can watch it 100 times
My heart is melting❤️❤️❤️❤️
i asked santa for this proposal in my Christmas list. Santa's a good man....!
I know it’s late but am happy for you 😍
I love this scene So MUCH❤️❤️😫
Matthew is amazing!!
Play, *swoon*, repeat, play, *swoon*, repeat....
Best comment👍😊
I swear if he just looks at me like he does to Mary at 2:24 I'll do whatever he asks xDDD
Great classic scene from a brilliant programme
And still I wondered why he didn't give her his jacket... She looked as if she were freezing.
TheRest IsSilence lol I think if she was cold she would’ve like done some chills or something. She didn’t want his jacket
@@sendmemoneythanks she just wants his arms around her body .thats all
Maybe he was cold too
@@copperredable but he is a man. He should be a gentleman and give her his jacket even if he was cold too. Look, she is wearing a dress with off-the-shoulder; and he in a jacket, waistcoats and shirt
best christmas gift. EVER.
Thank you for uploading this. Matthew belongs with Mary they should be together forever :)
For me this one of the best scene, bar none
i can't believe this amazing scene was 9 years ago already
Ya know guys, I really like Henry because he is her equal. but for fucks sake, matthew and mary were THAT otp!!!!
We have all been waiting for this moment and it felt so damn good
How I miss this show
That final shot is a Hallmark Christmas card.
Theyre soo cute i can’t come over it😍🤩❤️i loveeeeee theeeem❤️❤️❤️❤️
Mary and Matthew's chemistry was the best one in Downton Abbey. Matthew is irreplaceable one. I really don't see any chemistry with Henry
THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL
Mathew give your coat to Mary she is shivery BRRRRR!!!!
I swear to god 🤣 I was waiting for it 🤣🤣
My DA ended in season 3 just the moment they had baby George in their arms as a happy family. THE END.
Sólo me acuerdo y me entristece!
Matthew's death ruined Downton for me
My lady, Mary 🤗
@Fujikorific love this too, wished someone would propose to me like this. Love this couple so much. Can't wait for September's season 3.
2:47 is so so cute
i love them! ;)
So lovely
best ending ever :(
SPOILER 3rd season
I just watched Matthew die. And because I'm stupid as fuck, here I am. I should rest before I do this to myself... I'm literally crying
comfort video.
Thanks comments for the spoiler of HIS death

In this scene, you will say "At lasts" .
Mathew: would you stay if i asked you to
when mathew broke up with Mary and she said "would you have stayed if I accepted."
Que encanto esa escena

@TrojanWarior87 Not anymore! She is warmed by his embraces!!!
Only in the movies 😢

What is the problem of these 13 people!?
I once was able to recite this verbatim
@twilightseeker1 Don't worry! There is going to be a third season and from what I've heard Dan Stevens will be in it.
Please let there be a season 3. And if so Dan Stevens better still be in it. Once I take a liking to a actor I become very stubborn and won't except a different actor.
They butchered it with his death, I still haven't gotten over it sigh
Dan Stevens, the next James Bond??
It's a crime that Matthew dies
Peccato che non c’è più su Netflix
Wait a minute...when are they going to show this in the US? Just last night William died and Mrs. Bates sold her story to the evil newspaper baron.
🌹🌹🌹
Back in the day they didn’t need rings to propose?🧐
😍😍😍😍
SPOILERS AHEAD!!
I saw Sybil just die and I had to go back to this to feel happy again...
(I know there is more sadness to come so I won't read any of your answers to avoid spoilers)
Dead
@twilightseeker1 Sorry...he's being replaced with Charlie Sheen
What chapter and season is this??
Its the season 2 Christmas special ;)
Thanks!
All you must see
Xche non lo rimettono
How in hell could she stand in that flimsy dress and its snowing. Ridiculous
No chemistry they trie to make this scene look like cliche proprosal in snow with mathew being awesome and this stupid actress trying too hard to act posh with fake voice. Hope they had lil chemistry
