I’ve always been a sucker for a British Accent (and yes, I know there are at least a dozen variations of them). But this fun segment with some members of the case of Downtown Abbey perfectly demonstrates why.
Stephen Colbert asks Hugh Bonneville (the Earl of Grantham), Michelle Dockery (Lady Mary) and Allen Leech (Tom Branson, the former chauffeur) to do a scene from the show using American accents, and hilarity ensues.
This further supports my opinion that Michelle Dockery is a national treasure, and who knew “Tom Branson” could be so funny?
