According to the UK’s Sun, a casting note went out for new-character Jack Ross, who is described as “black and very handsome. A real man (not a boy) with charm and charisma.” Click here to read more

The Crawleys made their annual trip to Scotland on the Feb. 17 season finale of Downton Abbey, but even though they got far away from home, they brought all of their baggage with them: Mary (Michelle Dockery) bickered with Edith about her relationship with that newspaper chap, Anna revealed her “racy” side to Bates, and the family officially decided to house Rose while her parents go to India — even though Rose sucks.
