My favorite character on Downton Abbey


I've always loved Maggie Smith and have seen many of her films. I LOVE her in Downton Abbey. She is perfect in this character and her acting is flawless. She has some of the best lines and has a delivery that often makes me laugh out loud. She is my favorite of this ensemble cast.

I think she's probably everybody's favourite character..... If she wasn't in the show it wouldn't be about to be in it's 5th series

My fave too. I love watching videos of "Stuff the Dowager Countess says" on youtube. Every snipe and tongue lashing and facial expressions she gives are flawless and perfect.

"Healthy" ? What do you mean ? Do you think she looks ill or frail ?

There had not been a long running series without her - would have lasted a season or two

Agreed, she never fails to steal the show!
