3 - Downton Abbey and the Crawley Legacy

Downton Abbey fans, this one's for us! Who else is part excited and part sad about the Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale movie that's out now? Grandmama won't be in it, and I'll miss her sass keenly for sure!SummaryIn this episode, I talk about the threads of succession planning that run through the Downton Abbey storyline. The Dowager Countess, Violet Crawley, is the matriarch of the Crawley family. Her son, the current earl, is the titled lord of the estate. He has a gorgeous wife and 3 daughters, but the entail of the estate requires that it passes to the next male relative. What could possibly go wrong? I have watched the Netflix series and the accompanying movies over the years. In honor of the grand finale, I am dedicating space on this episode to talk about their succession dilemmas and how they overcame them in the end. Did you catch the special note about weekends?
