In the years following World War II, the property is acquired by the National Trust and it becomes a site for group tours and afternoon tea. The family all go their separate ways and we never hear from them again.

If the franchise continues, Fellowes will continue with time moving slowly. He has stated before that he didn’t want to go into ww2 era. That’s why after ww1 ended on the show, the pace of the story slowed down in time, moving ahead only ten years.

I think if they do another film, it would be fun to see the Prince of Wales again. He doesn’t meet Wallis Simpson until 1934, so maybe they could show him with Thelma Morgan or Freda Dudley Ward again

OOoooooo yes! Juicy territory for those crazy '30s.

A lot going on too in the aristo world then. Without even getting TOO political, there would be the aristos who were into strong appeasement actions in secret, etc. The Wallis/King Edward VIII fiasco.

Loads to do with a new film even if they just stay in the 30s.

Hope springs.
