Podcasts about Downton

This week's episode of the Empire Podcast might just go ahead, make your day, as Chris Hewitt (having recovered from a colleague-inflicted mischief) invites Helen O'Hara and James Dyer into the podbooth for a discussion of the best films directed by Clint Eastwood. Amazingly, The Rookie is given short shrift. Then, our intrepid trio take a look at the week's movie news, including the surprising return of Michael Caine, and review The Long Walk, Spinal Tap II: The Grand Finale, and Downton Abbey: The End Continues. Or is it Spinal Tap II: The End Continues, and Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale? Either way, it's a big episode for Downton fans, as Hugh Bonneville and Allen Leech bid farewell to the cultural juggernaut in the best way possible, by talking to Boyd Hilton. [1:04:33 - 1:16:31 approx] And Chris has a wonderful time talking tennis and more with Islands star Sam Riley, making a triumphant return to the podcast. [27:44 - 43:45 approx] Oh, and Noel Coward pops in for a little song, which is nice. Enjoy.

We'll look at the new movies out this weekend and Borderlands 4! Hear about everything in the #MikeJonesMinuteCon.

As the Downton Abbey franchise comes to an end after fifteen years, with the cinema release of Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale this Friday, we discuss the enduring appeal of the upstairs-downstairs class-based period drama with the chatelaine of the 'real Downton', Highclere Castle, the Countess of Carnarvon, and with Caroline Frost of The Radio Times. Suede frontman Brett Anderson talks to us about the 21st century anxieties which have informed the renowned indie-rock band's new album, Antidepressants. Two medical professionals who've turned a razor-sharp scalpel to writing informed by their careers in the NHS: Adam Kay, the junior doctor-turned writer of the bestselling memoir This Is Going to Hurt, discusses writing his debut novel, A Particularly Nasty Case, a murder-mystery set in the corridors of a busy hospital. And nurse and playwright Uma Nada-Rajah talks about her tragicomic production Black Hole Sign which is set in an A+E department and which opens in Scotland this weekend.Plus we hear about a new initiative - launched today - which aims to develop filmmaking skills in children as young as 3 years old. Presenter: Kirsty Wark Producer: Mark Crossan

This episode pulls back the curtain on the craftsmanship that made Downton Abbey a fully realized universe. Costume designer Anna Robbins discusses the evolution of style from Edwardian formality to 1930s glamour, while Production Designer Donal Woods explains how Highclere Castle and meticulously built sets created both grandeur and intimacy. Cast members reflect on how these details deepened their performances, grounding their characters in a believable world. Together, these creative elements demonstrate why Downton's immersive atmosphere became as iconic as the Crawleys themselves.Experience Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale in theaters on September 12th.Get tickets at DowntonAbbey.com.See Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale + one more film at AMC Theatres to start earning rewards.

As the new feature film Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale opens worldwide, we see for the final time the elegant, glamorous and always dramatic world of Lord and Lady Grantham and their family.  We also have a chance to look back at the evolving fashion and hairstyles of Downton's characters as they have evolved from the series debut set in 1912 up to this final film set in 1930.  Joining The Gilded Gentleman table to trace this fashion history is listener favorite Dr. Elizabeth L. Block, who takes us from the high Edwardian style we saw with Violet, the Dowager Countess, to the body hugging slinky styles of Coco Chanel we see on Lady Mary in this latest film. We also explore the flapper look, the influence of war years on fashion and how the great cultural forces such as the Ballets Russes all influence the styles of the Crawley sisters. And we even take a look downstairs and talk about how styles for domestic staff were shifting as well. This episode was produced and edited by Kieran Gannon.

Happy Grand Finale week!  Leading up to the epic "conclusion" of the Downton saga, we're re-releasing our episode covering the second DA film.    To support the LoG on Patreon visit: https://www.patreon.com/lordsofgrantham To buy LoG Merchandise visit: https://www.teepublic.com/user/lords-of-grantham-podcast   Check out Endearment by Dux Somnium: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/duxsomnium/endearment/description

Var tar pulsen på hur tjänarna i stormaktstidsadelns tjänst hade det. Ny forskning ger perspektiv på kommande avslutningen av Downton Abbey-serien. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Nu avslutas superpopulära serien om Downton Abbey där brittiskt herrskapsfolk och deras tjänare skildras under det tidiga 1900-talet. Tobias och Urban pratar om hur det kan komma sig att Downton Abbey blivit så populärt i vår tid och hur den verkliga historien på slottet som skildras i serien kan ha sett ut.Dessutom tar vi pulsen på stormaktstidens tjänstefolk. Historikerna Anna Nilsson Hammar och Svante Norrhem har undersökt hur tjänarstaben runt förmögna familjen de la Gardie slet och gnetade, men också hur de hävdade sina rättigheter och satte greven på plats i 1600-talets adelspalats.Och så reder Dick Harrison ut varför vi kallar perioden för just stormaktstiden. Är det egentligen ett särskilt lämpligt begrepp för epoken som präglades av krig och armod?

Anglická smotánka sa lúči vo veľkom štýle, slovenský Otec ukáže, že nepozornosť môže mať tragické následky a štúdia maďarského školstva prináša nelichotivé výsledky. Čo z toho sa oplatí vidieť? Nová epizóda .týždňa vo filme je tu pre vás.

With plenty of giggles, some slightly outdated storylines (remember, this was before the first movie came out!), and a love for both the Enneagram and British drama, we uncover what makes these characters so timeless.As you listen, notice how each role – Victim, Villain, Hero, and Guide – shows up not only in the Abbey but in our own lives. Because even in fictional stories, we can find mirrors of our own journey toward a more wholehearted identity.RESOURCES FOR YOU: Book a High-Value Clarity Call with Amy Wicks https://www.simplywholehearted.com/callamywicks Wholehearted Enneagram Coachinghttps://bit.ly/SWcoachingcollectiveEnnea-what?

Another season of The Gilded Age has ended, and the frocks are more shocking than the bullets. As episodes build to the climactic end-of-season balls, we see the power shifts fracture the old ways, inviting in bold new energy. Even divorcees and suffragists are welcome on the dance floor! Join us as we break down Episodes 5-8 of Season 3: Gladys & Bertha fight a second revolutionary war at the Dukedom's dinner table (hint: come at seven, wear the biggest tiara you own, and be prepared cut your opponent with sharp words); Peggy triumphs in dance-floor romance and in her career; and Ada takes her seat at the head of the table. Then there's that other war: Mrs Scott vs Mrs Kirkland in the dressmaker's fitting room (come at noon, try on your gorgeous gowns, and prepare to throw your sickest burns). We cheer for both young Jack (or as Agnes calls him ‘a Rockefeller in livery'), and Oscar, who movingly mourns John while growing an inspired beard. And we grumble about the men who are making a mountain out of a molehill (ahem, Railroad Daddy). BONUS: More Downton Abbey callbacks than there are diamonds around Mrs Astor's neck! So drape yourself in your jewels, sip delicately at your champagne, and enjoy the podcast! And tune in for our Downton Abbey film podcast in September! (sniff, sniff) as we say goodbye to Downton!

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. Whether it was the heat of the day or the lively conversation we only made it to one room! 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.

durée : 00:55:02 - Blockbusters - par : Frédérick Sigrist - Qu'une série dramatique historique mettant en scène la vie d'aristocrates britannique et de leurs domestiques séduise le public anglais, c‘est une chose ! Qu‘elle soit un succès international, c'en est une autre ! Pourtant "Downton Abbey", la série créée par Julian Fellowes a réussi cet exploit.

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. I should say that although sunny it was a little windy but don't be put off by the background noise we do find shelter from the wind at plenty of points along the way. 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.
