AND BELOW STAIRS...

-

It wouldn’t be a Julian Fellowes drama without servants helping to oil the wheels of skuldugger­y. Englishman Bannister (Simon Jones, above centre) is Agnes’s butler. Not only is he the keeper of other people’s secrets, he has a few of his own. Her maid Bridget (Taylor Richardson, above left) is an Irishwoman with a dark past. In the Russell household, Bertha’s lady’s maid Turner (Kelley Curran) is as ambitious as her employer but scathing of her mistress’s attempts to inveigle her way into society. Church (Jack Gilpin), the butler, has a shady background but is good at his job.
