  • MASTERPIECE "Downton Abbey, Season 5"
    BIOGRAPHICAL NOTES Laura Carmichael Lady Edith Crawley in Downton Abbey Lady Edith has been through a lot since the early seasons of Downton Abbey, when she was treated like the ugly duckling of the Crawley clan. She’s been jilted at the alter, had a fling with a married man, and now—unbeknownst to her parents and sister— she’s a mother! Actress Laura Carmichael plays this complex character with charm and vulnerability. A graduate of the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School, she headlined a 2012 production of Uncle Vanya in the West End opposite Anna Friel and Sam West to critical acclaim, and she will appear in a new film adaptation of Madame Bovary opposite Mia Wasikowska and Paul Giamatti. Carmichael's television and film credits include The Heart of Thomas Hardy, House at the End of Our Street, and Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, in which she played Sal opposite Gary Oldman, Colin Firth, and Benedict Cumberbatch. Her previous stage appearances include The London Cuckolds, A Chaste Maid in Cheapside, The Vicar of Wakefield, and As You Like It—all at the Bristol Old Vic. She has recently appeared in glamorous shoots for Vogue and Harper's Bazaar. Michelle Dockery Lady Mary Crawley in Downton Abbey Emerging from her deep depression after Matthew’s sudden death at the end of Season 3, Lady Mary is now an active partner in running Downton Abbey. Since the estate seems to be shaping up, she can focus on what to do about her suitors. Decisions! Decisions! Actress Michelle Dockery has sailed through Lady Mary’s troubles with critical accolades, including Best Actress nominations for the Golden Globe® Award and for a string of Emmys® (Seasons 2, 3, and 4).
