She was wonderful on Downton Abbey

No man would keep chasing Mary when someone like Madeleine was around. So unrealistic.

People kept chasing Mary when Sybil was around, and that actress is beautiful too! Of course in S2 she had her hair covered with a kerchief most of the time. Still looked good though.

Actually, my husband said that taking both looks and personality into account he'd rather date Edith than Mary.

And note that Madeline never appeared on screen with Mary or with any of the guys chasing Mary. Smart move. Because it would be a case of "one of these things is not nearly as beautiful and nice and charming as the other."
