“If I could stop history in its tracks, maybe I would.  But I can’t, Carson, for neither you nor I can hold back time.” Those are the words said by Lord Grantham (Hugh Bonneville) to Mr. Carson (Jim Carter), which basically sums up that the show is coming to its conclusion!

Downton’s swan song will debut here in the United States on PBS beginning on January 3rd.  Till then, get out the hankies, and watch the trailer after the jump.  Let us know what you picked up that might happen during the season from it, and if you will be watching the farewell run of this acclaimed British soap opera?

It’s been a glorious show and an enchanted ride. All the best to the cast and crew.

I’m in tears already. Downton Abbey is the highest quality program I have seen in many years. Every aspect is beyond excellent. My sincere thanks to everyone for this superb program. I am going to miss you so very much.

wow – i can not believe this will be the final season – i loved this show!!

Well, I am a mess after watching this. So many goodbye moments in the trailer.

It looks like Thomas may have a new friend, hope he is allowed to have some personal happiness before the series end.

Maybe they will do a Downton Abbey feature film in the future.
