The Winner Takes it All - Mary & Matthew, Downton Abbey

NB - Contains clips from series 2, episodes 1 to 3.

A video for Mary and Matthew from Downton Abbey - by far my favourite couple in the show.

At this stage in the show (series 2, episode 3) I thought this particular song suited Mary and her relationship with Matthew very well. The song is The Winner Takes It All, by Abba.

I hope you enjoy the video and hopefully these two will sort things out soon so I can make happier videos for them.

I must say, I absolutely love those parallel scenes, when, for example, Matthew puts Lavinia's picture down inside the trench shelter, and then, in a later scene, we see him putting down Mary's toy dog in the same place.
Downton Abbey is a work of absolute genius.

i love that smile mary gives matthew whenever he catches her looking haha

[elisabethmees]

I love this video, because you can tell how much Mary loved Matthew. Even if she never tells him during the series, her actions and facial expresions speak for themselves

Watching this for probably the 20 th time. Not an ABBA fan but the music is just as good as it fits the story background. The love between Mary and Matthew was just sublime. The petit kiss scene at the train station was just the ultimate tear jerker. Downton Abbey. What a great story.

I love it. The scenes are in a perfect harmony with the lyrics.

Tears. How one is drawn into their emotions is so strong . These two faces are never going to be improved upon. The power of excellent acting . The beauty of Mary, Mathew. Subtile reticance. Is more gripping than. Familiarity. Although the lust of handsome Pamuk Was breath taking . Downton Nothing replaces you. Not even Pemberley.

This song was so totally made for these two in every single way and in every single word too I loved everything you did it was perfectly and wonderful and amazing done ✅

[cynthiagrada]

The Best story love in the Wold!!!! I 4ever!!!

[kegan]

One of the best versions of this song on YouTube.

[Fujikorific]

I ALWAYS think of them listening to this song. That and 'What's the Name of the Game?'...ABBA is so applicable to our OTP, is it not? Great job matching to the lyrics.

I think I've watched just about every Mary & Matthew video on here and yours is by far the best! I love it. It all works together beautifully. I especially like how every time the words "the winner takes it all" are sung, Lavinia is on the screen. As eolivet said earlier, Lavinia is winning the battle but not the war. It has to be Matthew and Mary together, nothing else makes sense for Downtown Abbey. Thanks for the wonderful video.
