And now more is in store: A surprise seventh season of "Downton Abbey" -- the PBS drama that wrapped up its TV tenure in 2016 -- has quietly started filming in the U.K., DailyMail.com reported in February 2024.
"Filming has been going on for a few weeks now, it is all very, very secret. There are people working on it who have never seen secrecy like it," a source told the outlet, adding that its expected to be released at the end of 2024. "Those working on the set have been made to sign non-disclosure agreements so that they don't give the game away but there is a lot of excitement at the return of 'Downton.' It was such a huge success before and there are so many more stories to be told, it seemed such a shame not to be able to make more of it but they've made it happen."

(1,331 posts)Did they get the family all back, and how many of the servants? I don't think this info is out there, but I am SO curious. It seems we were in the extremely small group of people who never watched it when it was originally on, we only watched it all last year, all episodes and the movies. So it is all fairly recent to us. This is very cool!
