Funny / Downton Abbey: A New Era

Go To

  • When Mary is asked to dub over Montmirail's lines she says she can't. Mrs. Hughes points out that Mary is being asked... to literally just speak in her own accent.
    • This becomes funny in a meta sense when one learns that Mary's actress had been playing an American for several years and as such actually HAD forgotten out to talk like Lady Mary!
  • Carson utterly refusing to wear anything but his full suit while in France, and thus constantly being overly warm but refusing to do anything about it.
  • As they film the final scene and get everything right at the very last second Cora and Robert walk into the scene, Robert utterly horrified that a room of Downton has been made up as a gambling parlor.
  • While occurring during the film's biggest tearjerker scene there is something very funny about the Dowager's final words to be her joking that her maid is crying so loud she can't even hear herself die.
