Wow; that's a gorgeous picture. I love his eyes, so piercing. While I love his character, Bates, I could see him pull off being the Earl of Downton.

It's true, his eyes are piercing. Even as Bates, I melt whenever he looks lovingly at Anna.

Aw, yeah.
What's everyone's thoughts on Bates/Anna VS Thomas/O'Brien? Their scenes/storylines throughout the series? |

I thought the SL done in S1 were better than S2. In S1, there was give and take, push and pull. By S2, O'Brien was still pulling strings to Vera to bring her back to DA (how did O'Brien find out Vera's direction?), but Bates was too preoccupied in getting his divorce to care or at least we weren't shown that he even thought once about who told Vera he was back at DA. It's a classic illustration of the difference in thoroughness between S1 and S2.

I agree... it's a bit of an interesting storyline, overall.

And I think Fellowes wrote him brilliantly. Having us see this man who doesn't blame anyone even if he can easily put the blame on Thomas and even Mr. Carson knows what kind of person Thomas is. He doesn't speak badly of anyone and is loyal to a fault.

Express.co.uk - Home of the Daily and Sunday Express | Showbiz :: Downton Abbey superfan pays �12,000 for a date with star Brendan Coyle
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/ar...dan-Coyle.html This one has pictures and she looks to be having a good time. Despite my love for Downton, I don't think I would have put that much money down for a date with Brendan. Sorry. __________________

Oh, wow. That's crazy! I bet she had a great time though.
Doesn't he look skinnier? |

He does look skinner. Perhaps they needed him to trim down for the prison scenes?

Thanks for the article. I love that he mentioned Maria Doyle Kennedy who's obviously a good friend of his.
