Downton Abbey Biographical Notes Downton Abbey Biographical Notes Laura Carmichael Lady Edith Crawley in Downton Abbey Jealous sister, wartime nurse, jilted bride, Lady Edith has seen her share of stress, yet she launches into Downton Abbey, Season 4, with all the self-confidence of a new woman in the Roaring Twenties. No Crawley stick-in-the-mud she! Laura Carmichael plays this complex character with charm and vulnerability. A graduate of the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School, she recently made her West End debut in Uncle Vanya opposite Anna Friel and Samuel West. Carmichael's other 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. Michelle Dockery Lady Mary Crawley in Downton Abbey Michelle Dockery’s character, Lady Mary, returns to Downton Abbey, Season 4, as a brand new mother and widow. Considering the Mr. Pamuk incident, the ill-fated engagement to Sir Richard, and the on-again-off-again relationship with Matthew, she has already been through quite a lot. And it’s not over. Dockery has sailed through the emotional turmoil with critical accolades, including Emmy® and Golden Globe® nominations for Best Actress. In upcoming work, she stars with Liam Neeson and Julianne Moore in the soon-to-be-released action film Non-Stop. Recently, she starred with Charlotte Rampling in the BBC spy thriller Reckless, she played the socialite Princess Myagkaya opposite Keira Knightley and Jude Law in Joe Wright’s Anna Karenina, and she was Kate Percy in an all-star production of Shakespeare’s Henry IV Part One and Part Two, which will air under the umbrella title The Hollow Crown on Great Performances on PBS in September. A graduate of the Guildhall School of Music and Drama, Dockery was nominated in 2006 for the Ian Charleson Award for her performance in Pillars of the Community at the National Theatre. In 2007, she won second prize at the Ian Charleson Awards for her portrayal of Eliza Doolittle in Sir Peter Hall’s production of Pygmalion at the Theatre Royal, Bath, which also earned her a nomination for Best Newcomer at the Evening Standard Awards. In 2009, she appeared in Burnt by the Sun at the National Theatre, for which she received an Olivier Award nomination for Best Supporting Actress. -more- Funding provided by Downton Abbey, August 2013 TCA Bios, Page 2 Joanne Froggatt Anna Bates (née Smith) in Downton Abbey The most sweet tempered of all Downton Abbey characters, Anna has been at the heart of the series’ most shocking storylines: the stashing of Mr. Pamuk’s body in Season 1, and the murder trial and near execution of her new husband, Mr. Bates—a legal drama that reached a happy conclusion last season and won actress Joanne Froggatt an Emmy® nomination for Outstanding Supporting Actress during Season 2. The forensic work must have come in handy for Joanne’s starring role as Detective Inspector Sarah Clayton in the new feature filmuwantme2killhim? by Amityville Horror–remake director Andrew Douglas. She will also be seen in two soon-to-be-released films:Still Life opposite Eddie Marsan, directed by Uberto Pasolini (The Full Monty), and Filth alongside James McAvoy and Jamie Bell. Last year Joanne was featured in True Love, a five-part series for the BBC, in which she starred with David Tennant and Vicky McClure. In 2010 she delivered a hard-hitting performance as a female soldier returning from the Iraq war in the independent filmIn Our Name, earning the Best Newcomer Award at the British Independent Film Awards. On stage, Froggatt recently starred in a run of The Knowledge/Little Platoons at London’s Bush Theatre, earning rave reviews and in December 2010 she took a guest role in the Christmas special of the acclaimed comedy series The Royle Family. Her other television work includes Danielle Cable: Eye Witness (Best Actress nominee Royal Television Society Awards), the BAFTA award-winning See No Evil–The Moors Murders, Murder in the Outback, Island at War, and the multi-award-winning series for the BBC: Life on Mars and The Street. Phyllis Logan Mrs. Hughes in Downton Abbey Phyllis Logan stars as Mrs. Hughes, the redoubtable Scottish housekeeper at Downton Abbey. A Scot herself, Logan is known in Britain for some quite different roles—for example, the flirtatious Lady Jane in the long-running TV comedy series Lovejoy, or the passionate seductress of Bill Paterson in an episode of the BBC’s paranormal series Sea of Souls. A familiar face on British television, Logan’s credits include Lip Service, Kavanagh, Inspector Morse, Poirot, Dalziel & Pascoe, Alibi, Inspector Lynley Mysteries, Fields of Gold, and NCS Manhunt. Recent years have seen her in Vera, Wallander, Beneath the Skin, Silent Witness, Missing, Holby City, Hope & Glory, and Spooks. Logan’s theater credits include the original West End production of Marvin’s Room and Richard III with Kenneth Branagh at Sheffield Crucible. Most recently she appeared at the Bush with Joseph Fiennes and Ian Hart in 2000 Feet Away. For her film debutAnother Time Another Place, she won BAFTA’s Most Outstanding Newcomer to Films in 1983. Her other film credits includeShooting Fish, Soft Top Hard Shoulders, and Mike Leigh’s Secrets and Lies. Most recently on film Logan has been seen inNativity! opposite Martin Freeman. Sophie McShera Daisy Mason in Downton Abbey Promoted to Downton Abbey’s assistant cook in season 3, Daisy is tempted to high-handed ways with the replacement scullery maid, Ivy. Actress Sophie McShera stars as another despot in Disney’s upcoming live-action film of Cinderella, directed by Kenneth Branagh, in which she plays the wicked stepsister Drizella opposite Downton Abbey’s Lily James (Lady Rose) in the title role and Helena Bonham Carter as the Fairy Godmother. In 2009-2010 McShera played the role of Pea opposite Mark Rylance in the critically acclaimed play Jerusalem, which was given an extended run in London’s West End. Earlier this year, she starred with Sarah Hadland and Russell Tovey in The Job Lot, a new comedy series on ITV. Also on television, she played a student at a failing inner-city school in the long-running BBC drama series Waterloo Road. McShera began her professional acting career at age twelve in a production of The Goodbye Girl at The Palladium in London. -more- Downton Abbey, August 2013 TCA Bios, Page 3 Gareth Neame Executive Producer, Downton Abbey Gareth Neame is a Golden Globe® and Emmy® Award winning Drama Producer and Executive, based in London.
