Since Julian Fellowes is not on social media, he opted to say goodbye to the Downton mates with a traditional written message featured below:
“You know, it’s almost strange,” he said. “I’ve lived with these people for seven years now. They’ve taken me and all of us to the top of the mountain. We’ve had this incredible global phenomenon. Most people in this business, even those who have been very successful, never have something like that…Each time I realize I’ve written the last line of a particular character, I feel rather sad. At the same time I don’t think we’ve done the wrong thing. I’ve never felt, ‘Oh my God, what are we doing? This is a mistake!’”
Well you can always write the Downton Abbey movie script, Julian, to cheer yourself up!
