It was ten years ago this summer that global hit drama Downton Abbey first filmed at Alnwick Castle, for their 2014 Christmas special. The show returned to the Castle the following summer for what would be their final episode before transferring to the big screen (and Alnwick makes a small cameo in the first Downton movie as well).To mark the anniversary of Downton Abbey at Alnwick - or Brancaster - Castle, we gathered two of our team members, Film Tour Guide Brad and Downton fan Jody, to talk all things Downton. You will hear a freewheeling conversation with memories and stories from the episodes that were filmed at Alnwick - co-host Daniel was at the Castle at the time! - discussion of favourite characters and moments and what makes Downton so special - co-host Deborah is an expert! - and even some speculation about the upcoming third movie, which sadly does not feature the Castle but that we are very excited about all the same.Do you remember watching the Alnwick Castle episodes of Downton? Were you visiting the Castle during the filming ten years ago? We would love to hear from you! Get in touch by emailing podcast@alnwickcastle.com .To hear more Brad on the Alnwick Castle podcast, check out episode 42, about the most recent film made at the Castle, Dungeons & Dragons: Honour Among Thieves. And for more Jody, head to episode 24, all about working at Alnwick Castle!

For this month's podcast I had planned to take a walk through a few rooms at the real Downton Abbey with our castle manager John.

John has been at Highclere Castle for almost twenty years and this was a chance to look back on the many achievements we've celebrated during that time. The title of this podcast was our first major project. You can hear more episodes of Lady Carnarvon's Official Podcasts at https://www.ladycarnarvon.com/podcast/New episodes are published on the first day of every month.

Summer in Britain has been slow to arrive this year, but on a lovely sunny afternoon Geordie and I took a walk through the gardens to enjoy the sights, sounds, and scents that make up our beautiful surroundings.

So whatever you're doing come along with us on our summer walk. You can hear more episodes of Lady Carnarvon's Official Podcasts at https://www.ladycarnarvon.com/podcast/New episodes are published on the first day of every month.

Often the starting point for one of my books on the history of Highclere Castle is a conversation with David Rymill. David is our archivist and there's not much he doesn't know about the family history thanks to the extensive archive of documents and letters dating back to when the family first acquired the house in the 17th century. I find the archive here at Highclere fascinating so I was grateful to David for sitting down with me to discuss his work. You can hear more episodes of Lady Carnarvon's Official Podcasts at https://www.ladycarnarvon.com/podcast/New episodes are published on the first day of every month.
