So, we’ve decided to investigate the programme a little further and come up with some fun facts about the show, the characters, the actors and the abbey itself – which you can actually visit! Who knew?



We’ll also tell you which celebrity couple got married at the REAL Downton Abbey. Want to know whether the food they use on set is real? Or where all the furniture comes from? Course you do. The series also has a number of unexpected celebrity fans… and it’s won a bunch of big awards – want to know how many?



We can’t even tell you how excited we were to find out that one member of the cast performs magic tricks off-camera. Or that one actress is actually in a jazz band! And we bet you’ve been wondering whether Mr Matthew Crawley is on Twitter. And Mr Carson? WELL… we’ve done all the hard work for you… so put your feet up, and prepare to scroll through our 50 fun facts about the series… roll on series four!
