Downton Abbey movie: first trailer promises warring butlers and mega-Maggie
The first full-length trailer suggests a faithful transfer for Julian Fellowes’ hit TV series as the household prepares for a royal visit
After the hors d’oeuvres of a teaser trailer, some posters and much buzz-building at, er, Comic Con, the starter has arrived in the lavish banquet that is the release of the Downton Abbey movie.
The first full-length trailer offers confirmation that the latest instalment in the fortunes of the Grantham clan and their adoring lackeys involves the run-up to a royal visit, with George V and his wife, Mary, coming for lunch some time in 1927.
