Downton Abbey ends after Season 6, and it seems Maggie Smith couldn’t be more relieved.
The actress admits she’s glad the period drama is drawing to a close and says a seventh season wouldn’t have made sense, per Digital Spy:
“I’m glad it’s over, I really am,” she said. “By the time we finished, she must have been about 110.
“It couldn’t go on and on. It just didn’t make sense.”
Jezza in Oz says
Life doesn’t make sense Maggie, but I enjoyed every minute that you and your fellow actors plus all the amazing costuming, milnery, sets, cars and everything else it took to make such a memorable series. I’m sorry to think there will be no more of Downton Abbey to look forward to. A very fine series!
Thank you ALL for the pleasure you gave me!
