Ms. Patmore: "You couldn't be harder on those potatoes if you want them to confess to spying." I think at the end there Barrow poisoned Robert's drink with salt-of-sorrel but it will turn out to have had the reverse affect of curing his fatal appendicitis, and when Dr. Clarkson discovers it in his lordship's system it will turn everyone against York's modern medicine forever thinking him to have been suffering for salt-of-sorrelitis. Ignore that all my previous predictions turned out false.

It definitely looked like appendicitis. They couldn't have telegraphed harder without use of flashing neon signs.

Everyone here has watched Another Period right? It's a farcical parody of this show, with lots of LA-based comedians you may recognize. Michael Ian Black plays the stand-in for Mr Barrow and he's hilarious.

My prediction about layoffs: Carson and his wife lay themselves off. Thomas becomes head butler, weird hair young dude becomes grantham's man, Thomas' aunt or whoever becomes lady grantham's girl. Daisy leaves to <do stuff> eventually.

End of series (not including inevitable Xmas special) Live or Dead prediction matrix: Dead: Bates - Now that Sarah is pregnant its 'better' for the plot if she is a bereaved single mother widow ala Lady Mary. William Mason's Dad - Causing the family to get its wish after all as they try to conceal their glee that they have more room for pigs Lord Merton - Shot in the chest by his awful sons when they learn he plans to court cousin Isobel once again. They really are awful sons. The Dowager Countess - Travels to major hospital in York and promptly dies wearing a satisfied grin. Edith - Run over by Lady Mary's car-racing beau. To Lady Mary's infinite irritation. Alive: Lord Grantham, as saved via Thomas on his way to stab his Lordship to death in the middle of the night, Thomas accidentally slices out the inflamed appendix saving his Lordships life and earning a generous five month stay of extension on staff at Downton, at half wages. Everyone else, sadly. Indeterminate due to M. Night Shamalyan-style 'was she ever there at all' plot reveal: Denka

What the gently caress happened to him? Six months in America and he balloons up. Usually it takes a year of the American diet to do that. Although I applaud Downton Abbey's commitment to detail...

He was probably like "gently caress it, done with Downton finally, time to eat like a pig for a few months" and halfway into his food vacation he got called and offered a shitload of money to come back.

Oh poor Daisy. If only she were allowed to become something more than the dish sponge of moldy b-plot ideas. She can hopefully take her war widow's pension and her inheritance of Mr. Mason Sr.'s horse brasses and crofting tools and open up the first late night fast food establishment in the UK, to give life to the ruinous post last orders culture of excess and debauchery by serving up 1am versions of that sandwich that got Matthew and Mary to get engaged from that time when he punched out a Labour voter.
