She is devoted to Robert and his family and thus feels it is her duty to speak her mind on every possible occasion, though her interference in her nieces' decisions often has disastrous results. In Series Four, Jimmy is something of an antagonist, stirring the pot for amusement and to get at Alfred, his professional rival. Timid by nature, other characters frequently take advantage of her naivete or pull rank by tricking her or handing her the more undesirable and menial tasks. After visiting Bates in prison, Anna declares that she will not rest until Bates had been proven completely innocent and is free. Cora and Edith make up a story to tell her father Robert, that the pig farmer cannot financially care for this child along with his own children, and Edith asks Robert if Marigold can become her "ward."

While her parents are posted to India, Rose stays at Downton, where she is living by 1922. The intended dinner conversation quickly becomes a heated argument in front of the bemused minister, and the Earl of Grantham collapses from a perforated ulcer, ending the gathering while he is rushed to hospital. Anna and Bates both visit Scotland Yard where Anna is forced to be part of an identity parade to which Bates is outraged. He is initially reticent about his family, but mentions that his great-grandfather and his family were Russian Jews from Odessa who had emigrated to England during the 19th century and eventually anglicised their family name. Some of the family do not recognize her at first, but when they do they are surprised at her elevated status. Cora is surprised but confused. Richard Clarkson (played by David Robb) is the Crawley family doctor. After the death of the heir to the estate and her unofficial fiancé, Mary's relationship with the new heir, distant cousin Matthew Crawley, begins coldly due to their different upbringing. Affable and good-natured, he was also a competent pianist (actor Thomas Howes is a pianist) and would entertain other servants during their free time. They had been too scared to come forward before but had now stepped forward and informed the police of his actions. He was further humiliated after being handed a white feather at a benefit concert held in the Crawley mansion. She also refused to hand the police the ticket regarding Mr Bates's trip to London on the day Mr Green died, telling Lady Mary she could never condemn a man for defending his wife's honour against such a crime. As Anna returns to Downton, Bates is still missing, leaving her miserable. Rose befriends the prince's mistress, Freda Dudley Ward, who comes to her when a letter from the prince is stolen by Terence Sampson, a greedy acquaintance from Robert's club.

After the war ends he covers for Carson when he falls ill with Spanish influenza, only to accidentally become drunk while tasting the wine for dinner.

He knew Mary since they were young children, but they did not become reacquainted as adults until after Matthew's death at the end of series three. In the first series, she is shown to have feelings for first footman Thomas, something that Mrs Patmore tries to discourage as she can see that Thomas is "not a ladies' man". Lord Merton remarks that both his sons are very much like his late wife, to whom he was not happily married. He returns to Downton in 1922, clearly still interested in the recently widowed Mary. She calls it off with him but he becomes angry and refuses to break it off with her. But she refused him and he married a woman named Ivy and had a son, Peter. It is impossible to recognise Major Gordon as Patrick Crawley because his face was severely burned during the Battle of Passchendaele. He is appointed Governor of Bombay that year, and he and his wife travel to India. In episode 2, without his knowledge, Anna visits Dr Ryder in London, who offers to perform a cervical stitch to rectify the problem with her carrying a child to term, but she must become pregnant again first. Thomas tells O'Brien that his father was a clockmaker. The episode ends with Anna and Bates sharing a Happy Christmas alone. Only the housemaid Anna offers him any sympathy and friendship. Almost immediately, Daisy Mason falls head-over-heels in love with Alfred, but is impeded by the new kitchen maid, Ivy Stuart, who Alfred is quick to develop a crush on. In the film, she has had a daughter with Henry named Caroline. Bates then invite O'Brien to his cottage, and whispers the words "her ladyship's soap" in her ear, before warning her that unless she calls Jimmy off, he will not keep her secret. Carson had expressed his concerns about Andrew's suitability to fill the new footman's post (because of the gambling club incident), but head housekeeper Mrs Hughes, Mr Barrow, and Daisy Mason urge him to give Andrew a second chance. Eventually, his wife persuades him to accept the child as his grandson, and Mr Bryant offers to adopt Charlie. They love to dislike her. She plays outside with her cousins Sybil and George, and does a little dance for Princess Mary. Despite misgivings, Mrs Crawley agrees with the plan, although Ethel seems unwilling to accept any position aside from one close to Charlie's new home. In the Christmas Special, she receives a letter from Alfred, implying that they keep in touch. In series six, she gets irate when her father in-law loses his tenancy on a nearby estate. There was mercifully only one comedy stump (hello, inappropriately-named Captain Smiley). Then she learns he got into a fight with some men in Munich after taking exception to what they were saying. He also helps cover up the scandal that the murder trial of Downton valet Bates would cause. She also seems to have protective feelings towards Daisy when she suspects that some of the other staff such as Thomas or Miss O'Brien are trying to make a fool or take advantage of her. Over time, however, the pair grow closer, and a romance develops. Using her husband's name, she obtains a service post in the household of the Marquess of Flintshire since the Marchioness of Flintshire is the Earl of Grantham's cousin. However, after James-Collier had filmed the first two episodes of the show the producers contacted his agent and asked if he would like to be optioned for the second and third series.[14]. By the end of the second series, the couple marry and move to Dublin, having finally gained Lord Grantham's blessing. In Series Four, Alfred pursues that interest and leaves Downton to become a chef at the Ritz. As the Minister for Health, the future Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain is persuaded to dine at Downton Abbey by Violet in May 1925 (his wife Anne is her goddaughter). Bates is angered when Miss Baxter informs the police that he could have made it to London the day Green was killed, despite her making clear she could not swear on the evidence. O'Brien, always against Bates, writes to Vera to tell her where he is and about his and Anna's blossoming romance. Out of spite, she leaves a bar of soap on the bathroom floor while Cora is taking a bath. Edith tried to make a joke of it but she looked rather downhearted. Horrified, Alfred is pressured by his aunt, O'Brien, to report the incident to Carson, as homosexuality is considered a crime at this time. Edith Pelham, Marchioness of Hexham (née Lady Edith Crawley; b. In 1913, three years after Ivy dies and his son joins the army, Joe comes to Downton and asks Elsie to marry him, but once again she refuses him, even though she has previously expressed doubts about choosing a life of service over having a husband and family.

In the second series, with most of the male staff depicted as serving in the First World War, Mr Carson finds himself under mostly self-imposed pressure to ensure household duties are carried out to his exacting standards. He threatens Mrs Hughes with leaving Downton in order to find out what is wrong with his wife. But when learning of his status, Matthew (as the heir to Downton Abbey) instructs him to put an end to his relationship with Edith.

In series six she married Mr Carson. [13], Thomas was originally meant to be written out of the show at the end of the first series once he had had his "comeuppance". In the third series, Thomas and O'Brien's alliance begins to fall apart with the appointment of her nephew Alfred as footman. The neighbour also stated that she had seen Vera walking down the street when the gas lights had come on (she said they made a sort of "halo" around Vera's head), which would have been when Bates was already on his way back home.
