Looks like Hugh Bonneville in true Lord G fashion spilled a few beans about Season 6.
Hugh Bonneville confirms Downton Abbey Christmas 2015 special
The ITV period drama is currently filming its next run of eight episodes, which will likely air in the autumn.
Speaking to Digital Spy and other press, Bonneville teased what fans can expect when the show returns.
“We’re in 1925, so the series has nudged on another six months, and Lady Rose has been on her honeymoon and she’s now moved to America,” he said.
“Tom Branston has gone to Boston, and some faces that we met towards the end of the fifth season may or may not be coming over the horizon to break or make the hearts of Lady Mary and Lady Edith and people like that.”
Asked if they will once again film a Christmas special, he said: “We will. We’ll do a ninth episode which will come out at Christmas.”
