In Downton Abbey, there is no shortage of games played during scenes. We've seen Lord Grantham get swindled by the card-sharp Terence Sampson in poker, Daisy observe a game of planchette (Ouija) to help foresee her future, and upstairs, Lady Mary partake in a lively game of charades. Even in Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale, which recently premiered on the 2025 movie schedule, there is horse race betting and a county fair. So, I suppose it should come as no surprise the cast is as immersed in game-play as their character counterparts.
