5 Downton Abbey characters on and off-screen
PaperMag has collected some off-screen images of all the actors who play major roles in Downton Abbey…because it’s almost impossible not to be curious what they really look like compared to the more stuffy (in a good way, of course) characters they all play on-screen.
Here are 5 of them…
Mr. Bates, played by Brendan Coyle

Anna, played by Joanne Froggatt

Mrs. Hughes, played by Phyllis Logan

Sarah O’Brien, played by Siobhan Finneran

Thomas, played by Rob James-Collier

Shocking!! Love it!
Wow. I probably wouldn’t have recognized Mrs. Hughes or Sarah O’Brien!
It would have been one of those “I know I’ve seen her somewhere before, what has she been in??” Followed by a trip to IMDB and then a big AHA!
wow!! quite a transformation!!
WHY IS O’BRIEN POSING WITH MR. GIBBS?
Thomas is the most shocking, I thought…
