Downton Abbey star Dan Stevens teases series three storylines! (UNREALITY PRIMETIME)



Downton Abbey is back on ITV for its third run on Sunday, 16 September, and ahead of the eagerly anticipated return, Dan Stevens, who plays Matthew Crawley, has been talking to What’s On TV about what’s ahead for his character.

And of course, the big Matthew news is that he’s to marry Lady Mary (Michelle Dockery) in series three.

So when he was asked, “Could you compare [the wedding] to Kate and Will’s nuptials?” Dan replied, “I guess you can compare them in the sense that Mary and Matthew are trying to secure the future of the establishment.

“But I don’t think there were quite as many people at our wedding as there were at Kate and Will’s!”

Dan went on to explain that Matthew will ask former chauffeur Tom Branson (Allen Leech) to be his best man, which is a decision that will raise eyebrows in the Grantham household. Branson of course married Lady Sybil (Jessica Brown Findlay) in series two, and the couple are now expecting their first child…

Of Matthew’s request to Branson, Dan said, “Matthew likes to champion the underdog, so he asks Branson to be best man to try and help him enter the family fold.

“They do become great mates – in fact I’d say their friendship becomes a full-on bromance!”

However, Dan added that between Matthew and Mary, there will still be some “drama” in store.

He said, “There’s still plenty of drama to unsettle the relationship as Mary and Matthew have some difficulties thrown in their path.
