The Best of Iain Glen ''Mr. Richard Carlisle'' | Downton Abbey 

Boy, did he ever, alarm bells going off all the time. A real creep.

he is not acting

@Billie Bunker good actor point out bad please

Sir Richard never had the makings of a varsity athlete

Oh you best believe that. He was gonna beat her into submission or into ruin.

Where does that conversation take place in this clip?

Lady Grantham says it after that fight.

@@Onmysheet the quote is still not in this clip.

Yaaaaas I literally peed my pants as soon as he said that. That’s one of the most savage moments of the Dowager that I would watch a million times 😂

Lady Grantham burns again

Gosh. I didn't even recognise him as the same actor

He indeed was an amazing actor! He manages to make the char he plays to be loved or hated, it's quite amazing

When I saw him on GOT I thought "Oh no!" but loved him on that show.

ABSOLUTELY!! He’s great to hate and to love Fantastic actor (although him as Bruce Wayne is a hard pass for me)

She's great in Resident Evil too

They only met once so yeah I would ask the same thing

@@jehannethompson1432 I think they had met a handful of times, even if most of them happened offscreen.

...hear, hear...;)👏👍👏👍

@Auntie M My point exactly. He's a total control freak. I remember in the Christmas episode, he was criticizing every one of the Crawley's traditions, and saying they would NOT be doing things that way in HIS home. HUGE red flag there, at least it would be for me. That was just one example.

The things we do for love.

To a Narcissist, Control is Love & don't even think about appearing weak or become ill, As It's all about the Narc. Thier the Puppet Master so to speak & all others are merely appliances to be used & Controlled. She appealed to him because she is Strong, empathetic & beautiful. Classy, well dressed & rich. Well connected etc. the Jewel in his Manipulative Crown.

It's what the press do now and lap it up. Do something that people don't like, rake their past up and hold people to randsome.

Lol friendzoned in a made up middle ages time and early 1900 poor Jorah.

Lol lol lol lol

Lol

😂😂😂😂😂

Hahaha

you should be a writer

Didn't help him with the real one.

Why?

Friendzoned 😁

"Lady Grantham, my responsibility is to Khaleeesi!!!"

Beaten by a dead man too lol

At least this one wasn't a genocidal maniac.

at least here he's strong. Jorah is an unfortunate simp

Omg omg omg how come I can’t believe I just noticed that!!!! It is Ser Jorah

Well to be fair , he could given a nasty retort about “ happily promising to never mix with such pretentious but morally corrupt crowd “ . Both Mary and Violet have very little reasons to look down upon anyone else but they frequently do . Sad

Thought I heard that tooooo my god

hehe

I was confused by this exchange. Can someone explain?

@@margarettaylor473 the parody or the actual meaning of the scene?

@@margarettaylor473 it's like saying "knock on wood" for good luck. the english say touch wood

It was close enough. LOL 😂

Yes, he does all that to perfection! Why couldn't he have the proverbial accident while cleaning his gun/?

He would have a mistress and flaunt it infrobt of her because he felt he was entitled.

That vase endured the dowager's hatred for half a century it doesn't deserve to be disrespected like this 😂

Lisa Huber lol 😅😂

My favorite part:when Richard tells Lady Violet he wouldn't see them again, and she says, Do you promise. Lady Violet may sharp tongued and unsentimental, but she's a mama bear when it comes to her family.

..that was THE BEST part of allll...’I shall never see you again’...’You promise’???? :)!

That's the only reason I came here and when I arrived I heard Robert say he never stops touching wood

Loved him in doctor who

Yes he is! He's my GOT crush 😍

Abso fuckin' lutely!!!

Completely agree, but I've never been able to figure out precisely why. I kept a closeup photo of his face as my desktop wallpaper for the longest time. There is no particular feature of his face, except for those terrific cheekbones and that jawline.

@@valkyriesardo278 And the perfect nose, and pretty blue eyes, and... He's beautiful!

Only the reason he always get friendzone😀😂😂

I think it was becuse of the last conversation. Mary showed real maturity here.

You're so right. That's a stance that you want to watch all day, in front of a manteled fireplace. Noms.

According to you.

I love the outfits of the crawlers too they’re elegant

Her coat and hat when she arrives at Downton is one of my favorites from the whole series ❤

That's because he was self-made and of new money (granted, there were numerous other factors about his character at play here). Such hypocrisy is pretty typical of those who consider themselves of aristocratic birth and old money. They stick their noses up at those who have made their own way, despite the fact that more often than not (as we see in this show), it is the new money that shores up and saves the old money from self-destruction.

Mary tried to manipulate him، you don't manipulate people you love.

👍

Giggity

😂. I giggled 🤭

King of rude assholes, I think you mean.

Sunshine , 😂 LOL touché

If you get a chance, watch Glascow kiss (2000) and you'll see the widower he plays with a young son does get the girl in the end and what a bicycle chase yo catch up with her! And a terrific dancer too. :)

look at that skin and his smokers breathh but shesmokes too euros all smoke by the way

By 1919 (when Richard is part of the story) the word Computer had been in use for nearly 200 years. Before it was commonly used for the machines we have today, a computer was a person. Someone who computes, or does calculations. Carlisle is definitely calculative. Still applies.

@@toxicginger9936 thanks for information, however, I meant a machine.

He has such a hot, velvety voice

Yeah, fuck those anti-spoiler manic

Who is Jorah?

He's an actor he plays different roles. Stop being a silly fool.

@@ingriddubbel8468 Are you calling me a fool, for not knowing who Jorah is?

You know you can search it up

@@sarahkristensen game of thrones ;) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jorah_Mormont?wprov=sfla1 People likes to be rude on RU-vid

Agreed. Any man that threatens to ruin a woman's reputation doesn't truly love them. Mary isn't my favorite character on this show but I do agree that she, like her sisters, should marry for love and thankfully she did.

@@JJSparxx She was always horrible to Edith. She wanted to prevent Edith marrying for love.

@@vijithadsan8169 I agree. Mary was in the wrong for that but I am glad that all the sisters ended up marrying men they truly loved and it would seem going by the first movie that Edith and Mary get along better. Looking forward to the next movie once it comes out!

@@vijithadsan8169 Edith was equally bad to Mary too.

It was a different time, when ladies required their suitors to be rich, and so marrying an older man was the norm.

@@ariochiv Yeah, it was the reasonable choice, but the guys should not expect their partner to prefer them because of love or romance. I guess Mary would have been classy enough to go through this marriage had Carlisle not been so jealous or controlling.

You are so refreshingly naive. It's the opposite. Mentally, women are way more mature than their male contemporaries. Older men have cooled down into finer wine. Less clingy, more worldly, less temperamental and more knowledgeable. You'll see what I'm saying when you are much older.

@Arioch IV : a practically chosen marriage of convenience does not a love match make.

Una Nina Nine : We’ll just have to agree to disagree. Thanks for commenting.

Yes especially cuz of last night's episode 😭😭😭

@@biancao7631 omg yes :( I cried a lit

Yaaass!! I've been watching all the movies he has been part of. Im still healing from Jorahs death.

Yesss!! I'm having trouble dealing with the loss of Jorah!! Like I don't even know if I can watch the rest of the season.

C. S. Through the snow On a one horse open sleigh

alex thelizardking lol

Yup 🤣

That he does

Who in the world is Jorah and Kaleesi?! It's all over the comments.

@@gennag5637 they're characters from Game of Thrones. Jorah is played by the same actor.

MaffiiOrdaz thanks for clearing that up for me. I was so confused. 😁

Naaaaaw......they would not have been happy ...he is controlling .. manipulative...and abusive ....why should he be jealous of Mathew .....where was Mathew going to go ????

He was abusive, manipulative and wanted to control who she spoke with and whose jokes she laughed at. NOPE!

Raspberry Dove-Ali, not happy. She would never have been happy with him. She could see what he was.

A Happy Aristocratic marriage was few and far between in the 1800-1900s. Families like the Crawley's married for the following reasons, Wealth, Status, and Power. "Keeping it the family show." I do believe Lady Mary would have lived a life of Wealth, Power and Privilege. Her parents fell in Love with each other. Tis would Not have been the same for Lady Mary and Sir Richard.

Are you in your right mind???

That was your curry farts....don't blame him.

quite the opposite you stunk your own tv

There never were episodes showing them meeting. Mary mentions him to her mother and sisters, after they'd already met.

Targaryens before condescending snobs 😊

I feel these two would be good business partners, rather than husband and wife.

I liked him as well. Mary was quite disrespectful to him. She was going to marry him yet she was rude and disrespectful at every turn. Mary is catty. Carlisle was her match. As for him loving her, he actually would have loved her and fallen even more deeply, if given a chance. And his love for Mary would have made him WANT to change. He would have mellowed, he would have softened, and he would have cherished her. But she was witchy and rude. I couldn't stand the way she treated him.

They areboth good together. But obvioisuly it wasn't the best for the show

Why would he be?

I wish he was I feel so bad for him

No

That would be too awkward

Both Matthew and Mary were extremely unfair to sir Richard and Lavinia. When they both knew they weren't over each other, they should have not gotten involved with other people. And if they made a commitment to someone else they should have stuck to it and not gone around stealing glances and kisses when no one was looking. They behaved very disgustingly.

Seriously. It was fair, Matthew did love Lavinia and I wouldn’t say Mary loved Richard but Matthew and Mary belonged with each other even tho it ended so tragically. So to me it was fair and all this was to show that they still had feelings for each other. Richard was controlling and manipulative and in a way rude. So I don’t blame Mary. Lavinia was overall a good girl and Mary treated her like a friend so it’s not like Mary treated her like garbage

Inayat Ahmed they never got married in the first part bc of the uncertainty of the gender of Lady Granthams baby and Pamuk. so therefore it’s not a sin to move on and to love other people

Your opinion. But to me Sir Richard was horrible but Lavinia was a sweetheart and Mary was nice to her even tho she still loved Matthew

I agree they were unfair to Lavinia and Mathew should have been honest with her about still loving Mary. I also agree that Mary's obvious affection for Mathew probably was irritating to Richard and her being wishy washy wasn't right. HOWEVER, that does not excuse or justify Richard's pushy and manipulative tactics to shove Mary into Marriage. If he truly loved her he wouldn't have tried to repeatedly blackmail her and hold his "favor" to her over her head!

He said he loved Mary...don't think he did. He constantly reminded her that he could expose her....tried to bribe Anna? Love? They are are family events ..Mathew is going to be there ...he is constantly haranguing her about Mathew ???

He was a manipulative and controlling abuser.

Sunshine Which is why I said I didn’t like him, in fact I loathed him from beginning to end, but for just a moment I could see things from his point of view.

He was a control freak, and an abusive bully. IMO, he displayed all the warning signs of a potential abuser.

In the words of those days........he was an unimaginable bastard.

I’m a romantic at heart admittedly, but I would have said yes to Sir Richard as well!

That should be 'Batman'

No ser for you.

Rebekah Martin: I think he loved her, but not in a healthy way. It was very one-sided.

He loved her, but her constant rejection made him ugly.

Melissa Forkner Lesher : I question the sincerity of his “love.” I have loved people who were unwilling or unable to return my feelings. I was hurt and disappointed, of course, but... I still love them and I genuinely wish them happiness and prosperity. Genuine love is simply incapable of selfishness. I have also been in a relationship where the love was very uneven (though I didn’t realize it). I genuinely loved and appreciated the man, but there were multiple incompatibilities that kept me from really bonding with him in a deep, passionate way. He felt my lack of involvement and was very hurt and angry. Meanwhile I was confused by his anger/hurt because I really was giving him the best I could.

He was only after a title.

To me, he had all the markers of a potential abuser. Controlling, manipulative, eager to 'punish' at the first sign of being crossed, and the way he sometimes physically forceful. Mary could have easily ended up being beaten by his guy, or at least emotionally and mentally abused.

Yes, same!!!

Amen

Probably bc he was rich and Mary needed to be married.

Feblik probably by a few years. Sir Richard could be Mary’s father lol

Feblik lol. The only reason why I liked him a little but was bc he was Ian Glen but I must say he doesn’t look extremely old but compared to all the other younger men in the show he does look quiet old lol. But he isn’t bad looking
