|
| Violet and Isobel:
| | === Episode #4.4 (2013) === |
| :Violet: Oh, what is the latest from your ageing Romeo?
| |
| :Isobel: If it's of interest, I haven't heard anything from him ~ since you and I last met.
| |
| :Violet: Oh, how disappointing.
| |
| :Isobel: To you, perhaps. Not especially to me. By the way, how is Spratt?
| |
| :Violet: He's well, I think. Why do you ask?
| |
| :Isobel: He wasn't there to open the door. I wondered if he might be ill.
| |
| :Violet: Oh, no. He's not ill. He's in Liverpool. His niece got married yesterday and Spratt had to take her down the aisle.
| |
| :Isobel: Oh. It seems unlikely to think of Spratt with a private life.
| |
| :Violet: Hm. Yes. Unlikely and extremely inconvenient.
| |
| :Isobel: But you can't begrudge him that. Servants are human beings too.
| |
| :Violet: Yes. But preferably only on their days off.
| |
|
| |
|
| Violet and Spratt:
| | === Episode #4.5 (2013) === |
| :Violet: I hope you're not too tired after your exertions.
| |
| :Spratt: Ooh, M'Lady. I'm not tired exactly.
| |
| :Violet: Oh, good. I'm glad if the wedding was a success.
| |
| :Spratt: Oh. The wedding was a success. Yes.
| |
| :Violet: Spratt, I have told you before, I do not appreciate a man of mystery. If you have something to say, say it.
| |
| :Spratt: I would, Your Ladyship, but it may not be quite right for me to tell.
| |
| :Violet: Well, if that is the case then do no say it. Do you have some other business?
| |
| :Spratt: Only that it may not be mine to tell, but it is, in a way, yours.
| |
| :Violet: You're testing me, Spratt. And I warn you, being tested does not bring out the best in me.
| |
| :Spratt: No, Your Ladyship.
| |
| :Violet: I will not repeat myself. Either impart this piece of information, if you can empower yourself to do so, or go.
| |
| :Spratt: Very well. I hope Lady Mary enjoyed her time in Liverpool.
| |
| :Violet: What?
| |
| :Spratt: I was standing outside the Grand Hotel this morning, M'Lady, when I saw her come out with her suitcases. She was accompanied by Lord Gillingham who had clearly also been staying in the hotel.
| |
| :Violet: Well, yes. They were both staying there. They were attending an informal conference of northern landowners. Lord Gillingham thought Lady Mary might derive benefit from it.
| |
| :Spratt: So you knew about it?
| |
| :Violet: Of course I did. Why? What do you imagine you were witnessing?
| |
| :Spratt: Well
| |
| :Violet: Nothing vulgar, I hope! Nothing beneath the dignity of a butler of this house.
| |
| :Spratt: Oh. Nothing of that sort, M'Lady.
| |
| :Violet: I'm glad to hear it. Now, if you'll be good enough to let me drink my brandy in peace.
| |
| :Spratt: Your Ladyship.
| |
|
| |
|
| Violet Crawley, Dowager Countess of Grantham, to Lady Mary Crawley:
| | === Episode #4.6 (2013) === |
| :Violet: I hope his arrival means you intend to make it public.
| |
| :Mary: Darling, granny, you know how much I value your advice…
| |
| :Violet: Which means you intend to ignore it.
| |
| :Mary: The point is I won't be hurried into anything. Not by you or him.
| |
| :Violet: But if you weren't certain, why on earth did you go to bed with him? Well, in my day a lady was incapable of feeling physical attraction until she had been instructed to do so by her mama.
| |
| :Mary: I don't believe that.
| |
| :Violet: Seriously, my dear, you have to take control of your feelings before they take control of you.

|
| Violet Crawley, Dowager Countess of Grantham, and Isobel Crawley:
| | === Episode #4.8 (2013) === |
| :Violet: Hope is a tease designed to prevent us accepting reality.
| |
| :Isobel: You only say that to sound clever.
| |
| :Violet. I know. You should try it.
| |
|
| |
|
| Violet Crawley, Dowager Countess of Grantham, and Isobel Crawley:
| | === Episode #4.9=christmas special (2013) === |
| :Isobel: Lord Grantham sounds rather more subtle than I'd realized.
| |
| :Violet: Well, like all Englishmen of his type, he hid his qualities beneath a thick blanket of convention so I didn't see who he really was at first.
| |
| :Isobel: It's lucky you found out in time...If it was in time.
| |
| :Violet: I forget.
| |
| | |
| Robert and Violet:
| |
| :Robert: He flatters her. He keeps asking her opinion on everything.
| |
| :Violet: Well, don't you ever ask her opinion?
| |
| :Robert: Of course I do. Sometimes.
| |
| | |
| Robert Crawley, Sarah Bunting, Mary:
| |
| :Robert: Obviously, the lessons have proved successful. I'm pleased to hear it.
| |
| :Sarah: Are you, Lord Grantham?
| |
| :Mary: Oh, for heaven's sake, let it go. You've proved your point.
| |
| :Sarah: Have I, though? All I've proved is that Lord Grantham would like us serfs to stay in our allotted place from cradle to grave.
| |
| :Robert (angrily): There is only one thing I would like and that I would like passionately. It is to see you leave this house and never come back! (He leaves the room)
| |
| :Mary: Happy now?
| |
| | |
| Violet and Edith:
| |
| :Violet: Edith, dear, are you still writing that very interesting column?
| |
| :Edith: Yes, Granny.
| |
| :Violet: Oh, you must show me some of them. What is the latest one about?
| |
| :Edith: What are they all about? The way the world is changing.

| |
| | |
| Rose, Violet, Dowager Countess of Grantham, Robert, and Rosamund:
| |
| :Rose: I say, some man has opened a nudist colony at Wickford on Essex.
| |
| :Violet: What do you mean a man's opened a colony in Essex?
| |
| :Robert: Not that sort of colony, mama. It's for people who want to take all their clothes off.
| |
| :Violet: In Essex? Isn't it terribly damp?
| |
| :Rosamund: Would that make a difference?
| |
| :Violet: Well, yes, if you had no clothes on.
| |
| | |
| Mrs. Hughes and Mrs. Patmore:
| |
| :Mrs. Hughes: Would you like me to leave?
| |
| :Mrs. Patmore: I'd love to think I have a secret that was too indelicate for a lady's ear but I haven't.
| |
| | |
| Rosamund to Edith:
| |
| :Rosamund: I gave up ten months of my life to make sure she came safely into the world.
| |
| | |
| Robert and Tom:
| |
| :Robert: I would only say this, Tom: In your time here you've learned both sides of the argument, befriended people you'd once have seen as enemies.
| |
| :Tom: That's true.
| |
| :Robert: You should be proud.
| |
| :Robert: Five years ago, would you have believed you could be friendly with my mother?
| |
| :Tom: (CHUCKLES) I'm not sure I'd have believed it five minutes ago.
| |
| :Robert: Don't make nothing of what you've achieved.
| |
| :Robert: That's all.
| |
| | |
| Violet and Dr Clarkson talking about Isobel Crawley and Lord Merton:
| |
| :Dr Clarkson: May I ask to what do I owe the pleasure of this visit?
| |
| :Violet: I'll get straight down to it.
| |
| :Violet: You know how Lord Merton likes to display his interest in all things medical? At least, he likes to, when in the company of Mrs Crawley.
| |
| :Dr Clarkson: Your confidence is a compliment.
| |
| :Violet: I confide in you, Dr Clarkson, because I must.
| |
| :Violet: Only you can help.
| |
| :Dr Clarkson: That is more flattering still.
| |
| :Violet: It's the family's fault, really.
| |
| :Violet: We've trained her in our ways, and the earnest and intellectual 'bonne bourgeoise' has been replaced by a rather less definable figure.
| |
| :Dr Clarkson: Are you saying you liked her better when she was more middle-class?
| |
| :Violet: No, I wouldn't go that far.
| |
| :Dr Clarkson: But you understood her better.
| |
| :Violet: Precisely.
| |
| :Violet: Now I do not know who she is.
| |
| :Violet: I do not know what it is she wants.
| |
| :Dr Clarkson: Well, there are many who wouldn't be puzzled by the desire to marry a lord and live in a palace.
| |
| :Dr Clarkson: Can I ask you a personal question?
| |
| :Violet: I've lived through great wars and my share of grief.
| |
| :Violet: I think I can manage an impertinent question from a doctor.
| |
| :Dr Clarkson: Do you perhaps resent the idea of a change of position for Mrs Crawley?
| |
| :Violet: I'm sorry.
| |
| :Violet: I do not quite grasp your question.
| |
| :Violet: It bewilders me.
| |
| :Violet: But I will say this: Do you wish to see her live a life devoid of industry and moral worth?
| |
| :Dr Clarkson: I do not.
| |
| :Violet: And when the glitter is tarnished, you know, what then? A hollow existence in a large and draughty house, with a man who bores her to death.
| |
| :Dr Clarkson: It's a terrible prospect.
| |
| :Violet: So our duty is clear.
| |
| | |
| Mrs Hughes and Mrs Patmore:
| |
| :Mrs Hughes: That's nice of you.
| |
| :Mrs Hughes: I'll just let Mr Carson know.
| |
| :Mrs Patmore: Oh, could you leave it, for a moment? He's given me his view, about my money.
| |
| :Mrs Patmore: He says I should put it into a building firm, WP Moss, or, if not them, then into some other building opportunity.
| |
| :Mrs Hughes: And you don't want to?
| |
| :Mrs Patmore: It's not that, exactly.
| |
| :Mrs Patmore: But I don't know about building, and I don't like to put money into something I don't understand.
| |
| :Mrs Hughes: Then why did you ask him?
| |
| :Mrs Patmore: Because he's a man, I suppose.
| |
| :Mrs Hughes: I'm not sure that's a good enough reason.
| |
| :Mrs Patmore: Nor am I now.
| |
| :Mrs Patmore: But I don't want to hurt his feelings.
| |
| :Mrs Hughes: I wish men worried about our feelings a quarter as much as we worry about theirs.
| |
| | |
| Rosamund and Violet, Dowager Countess of Grantham:
| |
| :Rosamund: I don't know what you mean, Mama.
| |
| :Rosamund: You question my motives every time I come here.
| |
| :Rosamund: It's as if I weren't welcome.
| |
| :Violet: Just tell me: what were you and Edith discussing in such a huddle?
| |
| :Rosamund: Well, it is very hard-
| |
| :Violet: Rosamund, you are addressing your mother, not the Committee of the Women's Institute.
| |
| :Rosamund: I'm afraid you've read somewhere that rudeness in old age is amusing, which is quite wrong, you know.
| |
| :Violet: It's about the child, isn't it? That is the secret you share.
| |
| :Violet: We both know you are not leaving my house until I learn the truth.
| |
| :Violet: So, shall I have a bed made up for you here, or are you going to tell me now?

| |
| | |
| Violet, Dowager Countess of Grantham, and Isobel:
| |
| :Violet: I do apologize.
| |
| :Isobel: Oh, don't. I'm enjoying it immensely.
| |
| :Violet: That's what I was afraid of.
| |
| | |
| Dr. Clarkson:
| |
| :Dr. Clarkson: Harsh reality is better than false hope.
| |
| | |
| Robert and Violet, Dowager Countess of Grantham:
| |
| :Robert: Maybe it would be good for (Edith) to have a bit of time on her own to think.
| |
| :Violet: All this endless thinking. It's very overrated. I blame the war. Before 1914, nobody thought about anything at all.

| |
| | |
| Violet, Dowager Countess of Grantham, and Rosamund:
| |
| :Violet: We have to tell Cora.
| |
| :Rosamund: Well isn't that rather a betrayal?
| |
| :Violet: If anything happens to Edith and Cora learns later we knew all along, she would never forgive us. And I wouldn't blame her. You see, as a mother, it is her right.
| |
| :Rosamund: But you don't plan to tell Robert. He is Edith's father.
| |
| :Violet: He's a man. Men don't have rights.
| |
| | |
| Mary and Violet:
| |
| :Mary: What's the matter, granny?
| |
| :Violet: I was worried about Edith.
| |
| :Mary: I can't think why.
| |
| :Violet: My dear, a lack of compassion can be as vulgar as an excess of tears.

| | |
| Violet, Dowager Countess of Grantham, and Lord Sinderby:
| |
| :Violet: Is it a long list, Lord Sinderby? The things you disapprove of?
| |
| :Sinderby: No, as long as I can steer clear of card sharps and undercooked fish.
| |
| | |
| Violet, Dowager Countess of Grantham:
| |
| :Violet: Love is a far more dangerous motive than dislike.
| |
| | |
| Susan and Violet, Dowager Countess of Grantham:
| |
| :Susan: I don't believe it. Is that it? Am I just expected to be a good loser?
| |
| :Violet: It's too late for that, my dear, far too late.
| |
| | |
| Susan and Rose:
| |
| :Susan: Whatever I said or did was done from love.
| |
| :Rose: I'm afraid we must have different definitions of the word.
| |
| | |
| Lady Anville and Cora:
| |
| :Lady Anville: I do feel for you. It must be very trying but I so admire you for putting on a good face.
| |
| :Cora: I wonder if you remember that my father was Jewish.
| |
| :Lady Anville: Oh. I'm afraid I, that is, how interesting.
| |
| | |
| Barrow and Miss Denker:
| |
| :Barrow: Why are you bullying him, Miss Denker? Can't you pick on someone your own age?
| |
| :Denker: He'll have fun when he gets there.
| |
| :Barrow: Maybe, but I suspect you're a bad influence all the same.
| |
| :Denker: Then I suspect we have something in common, Mr. Barrow.
| |
| :Barrow: Cheeky!
| |
| | |
| Mary:
| |
| :Mary: Now that Lord Sinderby and Lady Flincher both have a reason to look down on the other, that should keep them quiet.
