One of the major plotlines for the current series of ‘Downton Abbey’ may have been accidentally leaked by the show’s producers, after a wedding order of service featuring was found lying around in a church in which the show was known to be filmed.
Contactmusic will take the moral high ground and keep the character’s identity secret. However, the member of the public who found the pamphlet in Bampton, Oxfordshire, said it included the names of the characters walking down the aisle, the prayers, the hymns and the vows.
‘Downton Abbey’ has been the subject of a plot spoiler leak
The sixth and final series of ‘Downton Abbey’ is currently two episodes in, and it’s widely believed that it will feature several weddings involving major characters before it wraps for good. Even if you find out the names of those involved from other publications, you can rest assured that there will very likely be other characters tying the knot.
Even so, those coming to terms with the end of the ITV period drama will be irritated by the blunder. “The cast and crew of ‘Downton’ have gone to great lengths to hide the storylines for the sixth and final series,” The Sun was told by an insider on the show on Wednesday (September 30th).

“As it’s the last one, there are going to be some absolutely massive plot lines. One of them is this wedding. It seems a bit ridiculous that all those security measures could be put in place and then someone just leaves an order of service lying around for anyone to find.”
Jim Carter, who plays the loyal head butler Carson, has previously revealed that the series won’t be ending on a cliff edge, with the very last episode featuring a New Year’s Eve 1925 party taking place in Downton’s Great Hall. “We don’t finish on a climactic note. There are no explosions or charabancs going off cliff edges.”
ITV has not yet commented on the incident.
