I like how Violet first tries to mediate between Rose and her mother, and afterwards tries to cheer Rose up with a story.

[GoldenRose]

Rose turned out so sweet and amazing despite her horrible mother.
I am happy she was able to go to Downton and in the end finally found her happy ending

[Happybidr]

Speaking of Bates and Anna, I love how he never lets his disability stand in her way, but always encourages her to do the things she is capable of doing. That is very loving.

[erracht]

I'm glad the father was not a coward but stood up for Rose and dressed down her mother.

[CzechMirco]

I love how even Violet with her proper ways calls him Shrimpy.

[connellwalker]

"Shrimpie Flincher, " what a catch! How far he is able to extend his loving nature! I'd greatly enjoy seeing him find a happy ending!

You know, you don't watch TV for a while; then your hit with a video like this. It makes it all the more worth it!

[barbarafordham]

Bates looking at Anna with pride and affection makes me remember how men are not supposed to hit you or spit on you.

[alyzu]

"Yes, she's marvelous". ☺️

I think that the Crawley Family are very forward thinkers and very good Employers and any Problems then the Dowager is on hand to help because she loves and cares about not only her family's but the Employees as well and as much as she tries to a Prood she is very Broad Minded and Dame Maggie Smith is Marvellous as the Dowager as you never get a bad Performance from her only a Brilliant one

[juliam.mallen]

Simply wonderful acting superb wardrobes!

[Strix]

Ladies, search for a man who looks at you the way John Bates does at Anna when she dances ❤️❤️

[cartmann]

Rose's mother is English through and through. Very aptly characterized

[blatherskitenoir]

Well, this explains why Susan is the way Susan is. Susan is very anxious, driven, and exacting, and her husband is so passive, he's done nothing while their entire fortune drained away and now they have to sell everything they own and their home. Susan feels she must take control, both because her personality needs stability like oxygen and because she no longer trusts her husband or thinks he's capable. But she is so high anxiety and so resentful of his failures that it twists. She isn't getting the reissuances she needs and has latched on to Rose as a thing she must fix and save, so she obsessively worries and criticizes. Hugh views Susan's comments as her being mean and nasty by nature (not as the result of her anxiety coming out wrong), and thinks he's being loving and kind when he steps in to shield Rose and let her get away with things. But Susan views Hugh as a waste who's ruined them, and when he interferes like this, he isn't being good--he's ruining yet another thing Susan is trying to hold together with duct tape. Rose MUST get married, and to a suitable person, before their ruin is revealed, and Hugh letting her do stuff like wear slutty dresses and sneak off actively undermines that. A softer hand might be useful with Rose, but Hugh has ruined Susan's trust in him and his judgement so thoroughly with his own actions she would never be able to believe him again.

They resemble the couple in Mrs. Doubtfire: one is all fun, and the other has to be the horrible stick in the mud and voice of reality, so the other one then tries to be even more fun, which then requires even more rule enforcing, and so on, until they are so far apart, there is no meeting in the middle anymore. I doubt Susan likes the person she feels she has to be when she's with Hugh, just as little as Hugh likes being criticized.

I remember watching the scene between Robert and his friend the first time and as soon as the friend said, " If I had modernized as you did....", I went, "huh, there you go Robert, you old fool, look at the future you would have had if you hadn't listened to your kids..." And I really like Rose's character....

[m.layfette]

It's a shame that this episode is the Only time Rose's older brother and sister are ever mentioned. I'm presuming by Lord Flintshire's tone that James went off to war and sadly never returned. Anabelle is married and living her own life far, far, far away from her parents. (Her mother especially)

[charlotteclarke]

00:06 that is such a mum saying 😂 "that is final!!" Doesn't help my mum is called Susan too 😂😂

[aperson]

What is the meaning of the phrase “a word you don’t often hear among the heather”? It must have a great story.

[NobodyInParticular]

Nobody:

Bates: "I love my wife."

[nounou]
