This is such a wonderful compilation of Carson. Authoritative, puzzled, old school, monarchist and in the end .... a teddy bear made of marshmallows; all in a span of a single video.
Carson won my heart with that first exchange with the Dowager ("Well, we can always start with Mrs Crawley and Lady Grantham") and I think he was the perfect example of how modern changes affected a man so set in his ways as he was. I think he was the epitome of decorum and dignity and he carried that through all of the six seasons of the show
Carson's bond with Mary is one of the strongest points of the show. He constantly defends her actions however reprehensible they may be, because he still sees her as the little girl he had a hand in raising. But above all he truly believes in the value system of the British aristocracy and wants to see it flourish, and so he understands that even though his role as a butler is to stand by his master, the future of Downton rests on the ability of the next generation to challenge the incumbent.
Oh, does he ever. Remember how Mrs. Hughes said to Mary at the Schoolhouse (in celebration of their just having gotten married) that Mary could attack him with a brick and he would still (can't remember how she put it exactly) love her and how she could do no wrong. I had to laugh my rear bumper off on that one. And that was so the nail on its head.
In my humble opinion Jim Carter perhaps doesn’t receive enough credit for how. talented of an actor he actually is . The role of Mr. Carson cannot be an easy part to portray and yet he did it flawlessly. A lot of it is showcased in this compilation. The different voice tones and cadences to express different emotions, the physical gestures, every eyebrow and look. Similar to the character of Mr Carson everything was in the details! He was fantastic and his performance probably greatly helped in making him my favourite character on the show. Hence, I greatly enjoyed watching this compilation but I personally think a lot of his best moments were left out. Then again it must not be easy to limit this video to only 10 minutes when he gave us 6 seasons and 2 movies of excellent content.
Indeed! And certainly, not even half of his best moments and scenes can fit into a 10-minute video. I heard a little joke about Jim Carter that I love, something like, "He's actually two actors in one -- himself and his eyebrows."
@@rowanaforrest9792 That's funny. And yes, he certainly is. Elsie's "curmudgeon" That's a hilarious one as well. They entire cast really played so well together. I have seen the actor in one Midsumer Murders episode. But I have to admit - his best character so far has been Carson.
@@TDKiller415And Jim Carter is married to the actress Imelda Staunton who plays lady Maud Bagshaw in the Downtown Abbey films and who also played Queen Elizabeth II in the final two series of the crown, as well as starring as Vera Drake in the film of the same name and playing Delores Umbridge in the Harry Potter films.
My forever most beloved scene of Mr. Carson will be him taking out Miss Siby out of bed because she cries and talking to her. That was just such a wholesome scene and you can imagine from this few seconds, how he acted as a young man towards Lady Mary, which he, I assume, partly adores the most because she is the eldest of the Crawley sisters and occupied Mr. Carsons heart from the beginning. He is an amazingly composed character, portayed in a fascinating way by an extremely talented actor. I would state, he is one my favorite characters, but to be honest, basically the whole cast, the whole show, all the layers of the characters, their development and character arcs... Downton Abbey is, at least for me, the best made TV show ever, and I watch a lot of shows. I am still waiting for the next movie... new season... whatever, just give me more of this.
At 4:53. I chuckled way too much when Carson had to interact with that American man. His face just shows so much confusion and disgust with the impertinent, slang-filled language of this “colonial” from God knows where. The poor man version of Mrs Levinson and her zany American ways. Lol.
Carson was far more than the butler of Downton Abbey. That becomes clear when he held and consoled Mary, something that no ordinary butler of that era would ever consider doing. He was the head of the downstairs branch of the family.
4:55 "I wanted to ask you... man-to-man..." Carson: *I have never been so offended in my life* "Because I wouldn't want to push in..." Carson: *up until right now!*
The more I watched these episodes, the more I noticed that Carson never used slang words, and spoke in precise clear sentences. No sloppy pronunciation. Never slurred his words together. ETA I have to retract the “no slang words”. When the valet of Cora’s brother asks about Daisy, Carson repeats back to him that “there was nothing ‘going on with that fella’ “.
The proposal was on of my favorite scenes from the show. You could see from the first episode that Mr. Carson and Mrs. Hughes were made for each other. BUT since in real life marriages between servants were HIGHLY discouraged during that time, I thought it was just going to be a continuing theme in the show.
They will film the seventh season in Tangier, where the events will take place. Tangier, at the end of the 1920s, was an international zone governed by several countries, including Britain, France, Spain, and various other European nations, alongside an American presence. The city was home to a wealthy class, as well as numerous intellectuals, artists, and political activists. The social and cultural life was vibrant, and many events will unfold among the diverse communities living there. New stories will emerge for the main characters of the series, and new stars will appear. After Tangier, the events will move to the United States during the Great Depression. In Tangier, the story will begin with a hunting trip where Lord Crawley will hunt three Barbary lions. International newspaper correspondents present in Tangier at that time will report this news. Lord Crawley will transport these lions to the United Kingdom, where his accomplishment will impress everyone, making him famous in his homeland. He will present the three lions to the king, earning the king's admiration and receiving a new noble title.
In the bustling city of Tangier, diversity wasn't just a fact of life; it was the very essence of its governance. Amidst the labyrinthine streets, each community governed by its own unique symbol of national pride. The British, with their majestic Barbary lions, symbolized strength and regality. Every morning, the proud French residents awakened the city with the crow of their rooster, a call to embrace the new day with vigor. The Italians, guardians of the night, boasted a pack of Italian wolves whose haunting howls echoed through the moonlit alleys. Meanwhile, the Spaniards showcased their prowess with bullfighting spectacles, their magnificent bulls reigning supreme in the ancient arena that still stood proudly within the city limits. And then there were the Dutch, known for their amiable cows, whose gentle demeanor belied the strength of their dairy industry. Yet, despite their differences, these communities coexisted in a delicate balance, each contributing to the vibrant tapestry of Tangier's cultural fabric. Together, they formed a mosaic of traditions, customs, and beliefs, enriching the city with their diversity and unity. And in the heart of Tangier, amidst the clash of cultures and the harmony of coexistence, the true essence of humanity thrived.
The Germans, who were excluded from managing the city of Tangier, could likewise showcase their pride by owning German Shepherds, a breed renowned for its intelligence, loyalty, and versatility.
That's disgusting. i am well aware that the nobility slaughtered and captured the wildlife of nations around the globe for "sport" however i do not intend to view those crimes for entertainment.

The truth about the hunting of Barbary lions was undeniable, as these majestic creatures once posed a real danger to both humans and their livestock when they still roamed freely in the wild. Therefore, hunting them became an inevitable necessity.
I know it makes a lot of people uncomfortable but hunting has been practiced by humans since the beginning of our existence. When you watch Downton Abbey you are watching a historical drama meaning many things are going to necessarily be outdated. Considering the nature of the tv show, if you made it this far you probably already watched many thing that should not be considered entertainment.

He was n0 Teddy bear. Mysogonist
Ye high standards but..he only treated the women above stairs with respect
“Alfred is willing, you know. Even if he is Miss O’Brien’s nephew.”
“Clearly nothing worse can be said of any man.” 😂
I always admired Mr. Carson. A man of high principles, high standards, and high morals. We need more people like Mr. Carson!
Not really.
@@Effective_tool_of_Satanmore than you think
a little too high
Absolutely! Yes, I agree.
@@Effective_tool_of_SatanYes really!
I’ve always adored the relationship between Mary and Carson
And it’s later echoed in the relationship between Thomas and George.
I love when he tells the story of Mary running away and asking if she my take some of the silver to sell.
The scene where Mary apologizes to Carson, to me, is one of the greatest scenes ever and that not only includes TV but Movies!!
Carson won my heart with that first exchange with the Dowager ("Well, we can always start with Mrs Crawley and Lady Grantham") and I think he was the perfect example of how modern changes affected a man so set in his ways as he was. I think he was the epitome of decorum and dignity and he carried that through all of the six seasons of the show
Mary’s cry is the most realistic I’ve ever seen, from deep within her soul.
gut wrenching and superb acting...
0:35 I love Robert's momentary startled look of concern for Carson.
“I always think there’s something rather foreign about high spirits at breakfast.” Relatable.

Baby Carson said, “ACTING sergeant I believe!” That tore poor Barrow up lmao
That "I believe" was said with such a tone and expression I wouldn't believe Carson capable of.
The last clip was the best one to end the compilation.
Mr. Carsons proposal is so wonderful! ❤️❤️ Hooray! ☕☕💐
He's my favorite character on the show but they all are great!!
"A telephone is not a toy, but a useful and valuable tool."
@9:04 this has to be the peak of the series right there. Mr. Carson looking so unsure of himself!!! And when he asks "And you're not offended?" OMG!!!
What a snob Carson could be, but still a favorite!
I just realized there has never been a best of Mr Carson and I was going to ask you to do THIS very thing!!! and here you are!
Just the tonic needed on a rough day, thank you for this joyous compilation.👏☺️
I love this man! He's so stiff and tight but effective and efficient. I appreciate that despite the fact that I won't survive him 😂😂😂
I want a “Mr Carson” in my life! ❤❤
Not a maid in the dining room serving a duke! How ghastly! 😂
At 4:53. I chuckled way too much when Carson had to interact with that American man. His face just shows so much confusion and disgust with the impertinent, slang-filled language of this “colonial” from God knows where. The poor man version of Mrs Levinson and her zany American ways. Lol.
"Man to man", cue horrified look 🤣🤣🤣
Carson and Mrs Hughes's love story always makes me tear up
"The business of life is the acquisition of memories. In the end, that's all there is"
Mr. Carson
The proposal scene makes me 🥹
Carson was far more than the butler of Downton Abbey. That becomes clear when he held and consoled Mary, something that no ordinary butler of that era would ever consider doing. He was the head of the downstairs branch of the family.
The most human of them all.
He’s so amazing
In a sweet way, Carson was like a combination of Alfred Pennyworth (loyalty) and Darth Vader (voice and authority).
The telephone and the proposal to Mrs Hughes are my favorites but there were many other that made Carson great.
Carson bullying that poor guy about daisy and Alfred, hilarious
I would like to see the best of Mr Bates.
4:55
"I wanted to ask you... man-to-man..."
Carson: *I have never been so offended in my life*
"Because I wouldn't want to push in..."
Carson: *up until right now!*
Nice ending!
The more I watched these episodes, the more I noticed that Carson never used slang words, and spoke in precise clear sentences. No sloppy pronunciation. Never slurred his words together.

@7:00 One has to wonder if she had this kind of support from her father 6 months earlier, mightn't she have been well on her way to recovering by now?
They’re perfect for each other but I don’t think that I want to see them kiss!
More snob than his masters. But irresistible always. That voice! That discretion in action!

Are you serious that there's going to be a seventh season? I haven't even heard for certain that there will be a third movie.
