*FINAL*

As the series draws to a close in a feature-length episode, wedding bells are chiming for Rose and her lovely fiancé Atticus but, as the household decamps to London for the celebrations, there’s trouble on the horizon, mainly in the form of Atticus’s disapproving father Lord Sinderby and Rose’s brusque mum Susan. Something funny in the London air affects the staff, too, as Denker starts to show her true colours, while Daisy reaches a decision about her future.

Fortunately for Edith, her arrangement with Marigold is happily working out, but how long can she and Cora conceal the truth from Robert? Meanwhile, Branson has come to a heart-wrenching decision and just when we hoped that the relentless story of Green’s death was finally over, there’s a shock in store for Anna and Bates. They wind up behind bars! Viewers will have to wait until Christmas to find out what happens to them...
