Downton set for downstairs love triangle Monday 20 August 2012 (RTE)


Downton Abbey's Rob James-Collier has said that his character, Thomas, will fall for a new member of staff in season three of the period drama. James-Collier plays the scheming valet in the series who is set to fall for new footman Jimmy Kent played by Ed Speleers.


"He comes into it as a bit of a mystery man - no one really quite knows who he's into. But as the series develops he gets himself into a couple of sticky situations.

"He actually realises that in order to succeed he's got to keep in with Thomas, because Thomas is directly above him and a valet is what Jimmy aspires to be. He doesn't know what the viewers know - and have known for the last two series."



The new scullery maid Ivy, played by Cara Theobold also falls for Jimmy.
