The Dowager Countess VS. Lady Rose | Downton Abbey 

LOL, Rose was trying to be a hoochie, how progressive of her 😂😂😂😂, but Grandmama put her brakes on

I laugh at this line no matter how many times I hear it. There's just something in the way that it's delivered

@@querellenono2683 Thank God for Grandma! Remember, in those days, Rose had to protect her reputation in order to catch a husband. Also, there was no reliable cure for venereal disease.

That man said he was getting a divorce

@@anayadegani626 He told Lady Rose he would get a divorce, but that was far from the truth.

He did try to teach her that in a rushed way when they encountered her in the dance hall. I'd like to assume that afterwards he'd have gone into more detail.

I remember Matthew did provide some education on that when they were in the club, and to be fair most families do a horrible job of that even today. Rose was honestly incredibly lucky; other than the married man, every one of her love interests have been nothing but kind and sincere, and she ended up with a wonderful man.

I think it boils down to respect. They didnt really think much of her before this so why bother trying to teach her something she should have already been taught? It's easier to scold than sit down with someone and have a heart to heart and you'd only make that much effort for someone you actually respect.

I think after she moved to Downton Cora and Mary guided her

@@user1029xspl8dy Yes! True. Though, it took Lady Edith a while, due to various reasons, and distractions, but she ended up better than everyone, as far as aristocratic title, and position. Rose was a beautiful girl with a great, bubbly personality. Check it Out! Ciao!!!

I would love to be under the Dowager Countess"s power. She doesn't even know what a weekend is....

The Dowager always had the best lines and facial expressions, voice articulations to match. It was great.

So do I, Maggie Smith is outstanding and bewildering,who has made my day.

I completely agree! Violet and mary were the smartest!

Not to mention how she handled the Marigold situation. Total mess.

who do you think she would left her entire wealth too? sybil's kid? mary? edith? charity?

@@samanthasmith61 marigold

@@KarthiKeyan-zu2bx then edith? marigold is in edith's care and edith would outlive her aunt. so who would get it, i think she will divide it among equally but more for the improvished grand niece. but you can't divide her grand london house, that would probably go to marigold seeing sybil has a villa

Well, it was her...

By odd coincidence that scene just came up in my feed. I'd forgotten Maggie Smith was in Hook.

Well, she did have the experience with dalliances with married men during her life, so she likely knew how to stave off a scandal.

He was such a good big brother to all of the Crowley sisters and Rose. Mary didn’t deserve him!

they aren't just rich, they are Aristocrats😂..

You don't understand. The Russian Mafia is doing everything they can to destroy ordinary people in West-allied countries. The reason America is the illegal drugs capital of the world is because the Russian Mafia & its allies i.e. China, & the Russian Mafia's many drug cartels in the Anericas, & so many of their other co-conspirators worldwide are drowning our people in drug-poison as they work unrelentingly to destroy us. Not only that, the Russian has been embedded in our nation so many decades, they get laws and policies passed that weaken and destroy us. Your children are probably wonderful but our enemies aren't, & arent just attacking our political system but our families as well. You must be told to increase your extended family's chances of survival. My parents, one a retired police officer, all my siblings I was raised with, my doctors, my coworkers, my supervisors when I worked, tried to entrap me. The Russian Mafia, using compromised American law enforcement, entrapped them & sicced them on me. I'm 64. The KGB first attacked me when I was 11. We're in trouble. Please believe me. The Russian Mafia & their allies lie like a rug, have mastwred misdirection. Our nation is hanging on by a thread, the thread is President Biden, his Adm, our security agencies, our military & our security agency's allies. The Russian Mafia intends to install a proKremlin puppet into our Presidency in 11/2024. If we allow them to do that the proKremlin puppet will install a new gov, one owned by the Russian Mafia. If we allow that, we won't be coming back. I'm not exaggerating. Trust your children if they're not compromised by the Russian Mafia. At this time in our history you can't afford to release your children into our species & expect they'll be okay. They won't be okay. Sorry for any typos.

These are families that have a long history in England

Who GAVE me away

@@ingridwatsup9671 indeed!

@@rocioincera1 Comments can actually be edited quite easily.

@@duckduckgoismuchbetter thankyou! So constructive! :)

Nope. Violet never got caught!

Violet was a respectable married woman when she began having affairs, not a subdeb who hasn't yet been brought out into Society. Until then, the behavior had to be immaculate, or at least the appearance of chastity had to be preserved. Rose can get away with a lot, as the daughter of a marquess, but not beyond a certain point. She doesn't bring a fortune into any marriage she makes, she needs to marry money.

@@lemorab1 exactly being married give you advantage of flirting with others or more lol

​@@theoutlook55 didn't she said her maid betrayed her to the Russian princess and the princess dragging her from the courier by her arms and hair?

Impara l’inglese

@@ingridwatsup9671 It would be far easier for Google to fix the translation technology than for someone, let alone everyone on earth, to learn ANY second language. Especially English, which is the second most difficult language on earth.

The second most difficult language on Earth?? For whom, Martians??

@@adavanja5682 English is known by linguists to be the second most difficult language on earth to learn, after the Chinese language.

@@duckduckgoismuchbetter says who? what linguists? sounds awfully un-scientific and utterly bullshit to me

"Too modern looking"? What does that mean?

@@l.a.3479 I don't know how to explain it, Lily has milenial looks or someone in the 2000s, compare to the actress who play Edith who has classic looks or Mary that still can pull off someone in that era.

@@houseoftyrell1544 I completely agree, especially about Edith and Mary's look was more appropiate to the era. I think the actress playing Sybil had this "modern look" as well. Posh yes, but not the more classical look.

@@houseoftyrell1544I feel like Keira knightley has a vintage type face but not rlly old old period shows type

For a lot of people, those 19th century days were far from "gracious."

Yea let’s not do that

Ah, the halcyon days before penicillin and child labor laws!

Respect for elders. Let's try that one for awile, again.

@@patriciajrs46 *a while*

They were like celebrities, their lives appeared in newspapers. Anything could be damaging. Furthermore, I think it's the values that have changed, not the importance of reputation. If someone has a reputation for being openly racist or homophobic nowadays, that could have a severe impact in one's life.

@@marcosfernandes7324 I’ll buy that last one. A college professor of mine compared gossip to a shredded pillow whose stuffing had spread so far it could never be completely recovered. Don’t know if it was his original idea, but I guess it’s always been true.

@@Hallows4 Hehe that is true. But that analogy is quite frequent in catholic preaching. The only time I heard someone quote an author for it, it was St Philippe Neri.

Well everyone did know everyone else, so your reputation was important

Sybil was more into social causes though than being wild

Aren’t we jealous?!

@@SnowLeopardForeverSomeone else’s opinion means jealousy to you ?
