Downton Abbey Season 6: Photos Show Scenes From New Season

Season 6 Cast

Filming for Season 6 of Downton Abbey wrapped up, even though stateside viewers will have to wait until January 3, 2016 to watch the final season on Masterpiece, airing on PBS.

Thankfully, new photos have been released to give us a taste of what's coming. Although the photos are spoiler-free, they give us one last look at our favorite aristocrats and servants.

Downton Abbey

Perhaps the most recognizable destination on this list is Highclere Castle in West Berkshire, England, home to the Grantham family on Downton Abbey. The 8th Earl of Carnarvon and his wife live there now, but the grounds and select parts of the castle are open to the public between 60 to 70 days a year.

Lord Grantham (Hugh Bonneville) and Lady Mary (Michelle Dockery) seem to be on their game, leading the pack of hunters.

Lord Grantham's looking particularly stylish in his hunting attire.

Is there anything Lady Mary doesn't look good in? Is there any hairstyle she can't pull off?

Lady Grantham (Elizabeth McGovern) and Lady Edith (Laura Carmichael) await the arrival of a yet-to-be-seen visitor...or is it visitors?

Mr. Barrow (Rob James-Collier), Andy Parker (Michael Fox) and Mr. Molesley (Kevin Doyle) are on their best behavior (for now).

Who is this fellow that Lady Grantham is eyeing? Should Robert be worried?

As any good hosts know, it's always proper to meet and greet guests and usher them into the parlor.

Uh oh. We're hoping Mr. Carson (Jim Carter) is just his usual serious self and not worried about excessive expenses.

Doesn't look like Mrs. Patmore (Lesley Nicol) and Mr. Carson are having a happy heart-to-heart convo.

Will Daisy (Sophie McShera) decide to leave Downton and manage the farm with Mr. Mason (Paul Copley)?

Speaking of Daisy...will she finally find romance with the newest footman, Andy?

Thankfully, Lady Edith seems happy for a change. Let's hope it lasts!

Lord Grantham is looking dapper as usual in his dinner tux and with a drink in hand.

What new quotable zingers will the Dowager Countess of Grantham (Maggie Smith) serve up?

The Crawley ladies are looking fresh and in good spirits. Not surprisingly, Cora serves as a buffer between Edith and Mary, before the battle of wits begin again.

Hmm...Lord Grantham's looking a big glum. Here's hoping he finally listens to Mary and doesn't lead the estate into more financial ruin.

Is Isobel Crawley (Penelope Wilton) still pondering what her future would have been like as wife to Baron Merton (Douglas Reith)?

No more drama, please, for the show's most put-upon couple! Anna (Joanne Froggatt) and Mr. Bates (Brendan Coyle) need a break—from jail.

Looks like resident secret-keeper Mrs. Hughes (Phyllis Logan) and hilarious cook Mrs. Patmore are ready for an afternoon in town.

Newly-engaged couple Mr. Carson and Mrs. Hughes are looking radiant and ready for a wedding photo!
