My favorite scene from the season finale
Mrs Crawley: ‘Well and they are? …’
Duchess: ‘How do we get a guard to take my luggage and when we get to London? What happens then?’
Mrs C: ‘Fear not. I’ve never traveled with a maid you can share my knowledge of the jungle.’
Duchess: ‘Can’t you even offer help without sounding like a trumpeter on the peak of the moral high ground?
Mrs C: ‘And must you always sound like the sister of Marie Antoinette?’
Duchess: ‘The queen of Naples was a stalwart figure. I take it as a compliment.’
Mrs C: ‘You take everything as a compliment.’
Duchess: ‘I advise you to do the same it saves many an awkward moment’
Love that Downtown Abbey!! :-)
ReplyDeleteI just love the bantering of these two! The Dowager is one of favorites as is Mrs. Hughes :) Can't believe I have to wait until next year for the next episode! :(
ReplyDeleteI laughed so hard at that exchange on Sunday and now I'm counting down the days until we get to see the next season.
