EMILY PRESCOTT: Real-life Countess of Downton Abbey films herself sliding down Highclere Castle’s bannisters to the theme of Dancing Queen
Whatever would Downton Abbey’s imperious Dowager Countess of Grantham say about this!
The real chatelaine of Highclere Castle, where the hit period drama was filmed, has posted a hilarious video of herself descending the stairs at her Hampshire stately home in various unstately ways, including sliding backwards down the banister and bouncing down in a sleeping bag – to the tune of Abba’s Dancing Queen.
