'Downton Abbey 2' Filming Begins as First Set Photo Revealed
The Crawleys are back at it!
Time to polish the silver, prepare a lavish dinner, and get ready for some low-stakes British drama, because Downton Abbey 2 is currently filming, and the first behind-the-scenes photo from the production is here.
The image, shared by Focus Features’ Twitter account, shows the film’s clapper, with a blurred scene going on in the background. The date on the clapper makes it look as though Downton Abbey 2 has been filming for at least a month. While Kevin Doyle’s Joseph Molesley can be seen at the dinner table, more important is that Allan Leech’s Thomas Branson is sitting at the head of the table in the servant’s quarters. Even though Branson used to work downstairs as a chauffeur, Branson has mostly stayed upstairs since marrying into the Crawley family.
