(With a “10” meaning the event was fully conceivable while a “0” denotes a completely ludicrous killing-Matthew-off-in-the-last-30-seconds-of-a-Christmas-special kind of story turn.)Įdith’s Motherly Instincts Annoy Mary to No End (Believability: 6)Īs we’ve learned over the course of the last season, Mary’s hands-off mothering style involves minimal interaction with and discussion of her son George, who is more of an occasional hip ornament than a human being that she actually birthed. So without further ado, let’s look at the episode’s most interesting plot points and rank them on our Downton Abbey Believability Index. In fact, it was ditzy darling Rose, poor Anna, and Isis who inherited Edith’s crummy karma tonight.
And perhaps that is why, for once in the five-season history of the series, Edith does not have the worst luck in an episode. It certainly feels as though Edith, in a haze of love for her illegitimate child, is beginning to. Downton Abbey knows its worth, and hopefully one day, Daisy will learn the same. So good on it for offering up a new episode opposite the Hollywood awards show. Unlike the Oscars, Downton Abbey doesn’t suffer fashion misfires or the travesty of tawdry red carpet.
