Downton Abbey's grandest dame

Perfectly cast, Maggie Smith stole every scene as the matriarch of Downton Abbey in this beloved, long-running, TV period drama.

Why

Why on earth did I just realize that Violet Crawley, the Dowager Countess of Grantham named her son, Robert after her deceased younger sister, Roberta?

"I don’t know if they will accept this. "

Fictober 2023

Category: Fanfiction

Fandom: Downton Abbey

‘You rang, Granny?’ Mary said, entering her grandmother's drawing room.

‘Yes, my dear. I wanted your opinion on something,’ the Dowager said, raising her face for a kiss.

‘Really? Well, fire away,’ Mary said, settling on the sofa.

‘It’s about a wedding gift for Sybil and… Branson.’

‘Tom,’ Mary corrected. ‘We have to call him Tom now. Well, we will after they marry. So, what have you gone for?’

‘Well, I did have it in mind to pass on a clock I received on the occasion of my own marriage. However, it is rather large and it might not be to their tastes or – more pertinently – it may be a tad too grandiose for their new living accommodation.’

‘Not that big ormolu clock in the hallway?’ Mary said, astounded. ‘Granny, they will be living in a small flat in Dublin, not a mansion! From what Sybil says, I doubt they’ll be able to swing a cat in their new accommodation, never mind house a huge thing like that.’

‘Oh, really? How distressing,’ the Dowager said, her nose wrinkling in disappointment that one of her granddaughters should be living in such reduced circumstances, especially voluntarily. ‘Hmm, yes, that is a concern. So, we think that is not a wise idea, then? I had thought it might remind Sybil of me.’

‘I think perhaps send her a photograph of you instead. That would be much more manageable.’

‘I did have another thought. A gift of an entirely different nature. There is a slight problem though as it could be construed as being of a monetary nature. I don’t know if they will accept this. Well, Sybil might, but Branson can be somewhat sniffy about these things.’

'Are you thinking of sending them money? Because I’m fairly sure the chauffeur will take offence at that.’

‘No, not money. I am not that gauche, Mary,’ the Dowager chastised. ‘I had thought to gift them a honeymoon.’

‘A honeymoon?’ Mary echoed, taken aback. ‘Where?’

‘At The Shelbourne in Dublin. A few nights there, that’s all. Do you think that would be acceptable?’

‘Oh, Granny, I think that is a lovely idea,’ Mary said, pleasantly surprised.

‘Excellent! That’s settled then. Although I think I shall also send them a photograph of me.’

‘I’m sure that’s what they have always wanted,’ Mary said, cheekily.

‘Just for that, I will gift you a copy too,’ the Dowager sniffed.
