Love it! I suggested this idea just a couple of weeks ago and here it is! THank You!!!
😊😅
"There's a point Spratt, where malice ceases to be amusing."
Such an underrated quote.
@@Byrnzi360 I agree 👍🏾.
Which only goes to show she gets some of her entertainment from watching then squabble! LOL.
"It is deliciousss." Never underestimate the Dowager Countess. She hates to be predictable.
😂
I remember Mary saying the same thing on her wedding day
Spratt said it once too. Actually he said she's unpredictable.
"How else you like to be summoned, by Joshua's trumpet?" 📯
I've never laughed this hard 🤣
In his own way, Spratt is just as haughty and judgmental as Carson!😂😂
Even moreso I think.
2:27 Seeing the Dowager Countess in anguish and Mrs Crawley snickering off is the Best part of this video.
After the dowager these two were my favourite characters! I wish we got to see more of them in the movies!
Really?
@@SusannaEmily yes, they were so funny!
@@HM-xi5zi Denker was in the 2nd movie but I'm not sure about Spratt
@@peterwilliamskelhorn6675 spratt is too busy on Ted lasso
Totally agree. Their relationship was superb + superb acting ❤️
Should've included that bit where Spratt caught Ms. Denker's plan to use Daisy's broth cause that was funny
Who ultimately won, in the end? Clearly, it was Denker. When the Dowager fell ill and relocated to Downton, Denker went with her (as seen in "A New Era"). And, since there was no need for another butler in the house, and Spratt would never agree to be a footman, he had to go. No wonder he started moonlighting as 'Casandra Jones' -- he probably knew he'd need to have some money set aside.
In that case, I’d say Spratt since he could get on with his writing, while Denker would have wounded up withiut a job after the Dowager passed.
@@Andrew-jv7tc That's a good point. However, Denker could still get a position after Violet's death, depending on whether or not she retired or if the Dowager made provisions for her. Lady's maids are still in service even today. Spratt, on the other hand, is still in whatever circumstances he's in.
@@Andrew-jv7tc *wound up without a job*
@@robboyte1101 Lady's maids are still in service today? Do you actually know any?
@@Andrew-jv7tcSo that was why she was in a state of histrionic blubbering and Violet told her to hush whilst she died 😂
I love how the Dowager is just so annoyed by the squabbling
that Denker's laugh at the end was PRICELESS xD
They’re actually quite funny together. I hope the actors are called on to take part in the next Downton film. Lots of good material to mine there.
Is that actor (Spratt) a famous voice performer in England? He speaks so gallantry and eloquently not to mention his perfect tone of voice.
I wonder if she said the broth was delicious because she liked the chaos between the two
I think she figured if either of them felt like they had the upper hand, they would be insufferable to each other and to her. A balance between them was the only way to keep the peace. Besides, she said she hates being manipulated and clearly Spratt was trying to mastermind some sort of embarrassment for Danka. If only Violet understood how truly bad Danka was and thoroughly deserved an early demise.
My most favourite combo!
Anyone else notice the HA on the car’s license plate after the Dowager says Spratt to fetch the suitcase? 👍🏼😅
I’m really impressed with your comment, if you don’t mind friendship were are you from?
Dowager just know how to play the power game here. she make sure no one is over power each other in her house. lol
Utterly hilarious 😂
now gimme round two!
I’ve been waiting for the clip of this barren battle between them 😂
Why couldn’t Violet get pleasant servants?
I somehow think she reveled in dealing with them. It certainly made life more interesting than people willingly doing her bidding professionally.
She always liked life to be interesting. Pleasant servants would be boring. She was enjoying their battles.
Because it wouldn’t be an opportunity for jocularity!
Utter class.
Spratt should have be given screen time.
Girl power. The countess didn't give her away.
Did Spratt put something in the broth? Or was it just Denker couldn't cook?
As far as I remember, there was no hint of 'foul play'. This scene actually puzzled me a bit, as well. I mean...any working class woman back then would have known at least the basics of cooking.
And while it's not that easy to make a rich, delicious tasting broth from just natural ingredients, how could it have ended up smelling|tasting foul? Bland would have been the likely outcome, not disgusting.
@@raraavis7782 Maybe if she used spoiled ingredients it _could_ be disgusting. But you'd think she would know better than that.
Danka couldn't cook so she got some help from Mrs Patmore but Spratt figured that out and tossed out the broth Mrs Patmore provided. So left with no other choice, she created something on her own.
3:21 I'll be delighted, my Lady 😂
the ultimative battle doesnt exis....
Fetch it now please lol
Denker has disgraced herself
Thanks so much !!
die letzte szene einfach😂😂😂😂ich kann nciht mehr😂😂😂😂
No that's called drama 🔥
I kept wondering when they'd end up together
Denker was ghastly, always conspiring
That's why it was funny.
I always rooted for Spratt. He may have been a challenging person to work with, but he knew his trade. Danker really had no talents besides constantly trying to upset him. If she had been good at something it would have been different. She wasn't. Besides drinking.
It is…DELISHUSS
What does femenism look like? The Dowager stomaching Denkas "restorative" broth
WOW a Goyard trunk...
Which one of the episodes that contain these scenes? This question also applies to the Round 2 video.
Denker was the one character on DA I absolutely despised. She was too annoying to even make a good villain like O’Brien had been. And I wasn’t a fan of Spratt either, except when we find out he’s Edith’s “agony aunt”.
The two of them together were the worst parts of the later seasons.
Should be Spratt. Spell check changes text even when it is correct.
Did she really like it or was she faking because she hates being predictable
Oh please, doing chicken soup is one of the easiest things in the world.
I wonder if she really did like it
I always wondered about the broth she made. I mean, how hard is it to make chicken broth? You boil a chicken with onions and vegetables and spices.
At 1:16. Rich people are so weird. Why is she taking so much luggage to go to another grand country house to spend a few days there? Is she moving house? Is she taking all her old-lady knick-knacks? Here I am always trying to figure out the least amount to take anywhere--going somewhere tropical thousands of miles away is always super-helpful, as it requires just shorts, shirts and swimsuits. But...wow. The Dowager Countess definitely needs to live the "minimalist" lifestyle so beloved of today's super-rich, like Elon Musk, etc.
Well, people of noble heritage werd required by tradiiton to wear a different atire for almost every Activity of the Day.
Not to mention the yards and yards of undergarments needed for every day of the trip! 😂
Hats need separate cases
🙂 💙 👏🏻
Spray is the most unappealing, mean, selfish servant they could have come up with. He must lay awake nights thinking up ways to tear Denker down. Servants like him act like four year old children trying to be the favorite employee, I have fired people like him before, I do not put up with that kind of childish, juvenile behavior in my home or business.
And you don't think Danka pushed him to behave that way?
Denker was a nightmare too. The pair of them. That's the beauty of their hate-hate relationship! 😂
@@Robert08010 Right on. She was a piece of work!
@@raftai665 Spratt was definitely a piece of work but I don't remember him ever initiating extortion against Danka. On the other hand, Danka did do exactly that to him. Spratt did want and expect everyone to bow to him but he was also content enough just to be left alone.
KEŞKE TÜRKÇE SESLENDİRMESİ OLSAYDI.
Spratt and Denker are the sadly few bright spots as Downton became bogged down in lifeless and predictable writing and poor acting. The thing had basically collapsed of it own ponderousness but these two gave it some life support
Another example of girls always sticking together.
Downtown, Do you need a photoshop guy. 😏
I can do better than...
Bad crop job.
I HATE Denker.
