The Remixed Love Story of Downton Abbey's Mary and Matthew

Who says high society has no passionate love affairs?

Matthew and Mary Crawley, of the British period drama Downton Abbey, are the Romeo and Juliet (or Ross and Rachel, for our modern readers) of the BBC. Their love story is one of the greatest joys for viewers, transcending the usual uptightness of the aristocratic Crawley family.

Relive the highs and lows of the duo's romance from the past three seasons in this love duet, remixed by YouTuber Edgar Camago. Prepare to cry — we're willing to bet even the Dowager Countess of Grantham would shed a (very small) tear while watching this montage.
