is not:
- as dull as paint
- some ‘old guy’
- unworthy of the love of Edith Crawley
is:
- able to get his head round the fact two people of different classes can love each other
- someone who will call your bullshit out
- a WAR hero
- suffering from confidence issues
- young enough to enjoy 20/30 years of happy marriage
- someone who would be a lovely, warm papa and wonderful husband
- A GENUINELY GOOD MAN
- totally worth of Edith Crawley’s love
- THE OBJECT OF HER AFFECTIONS

THIS TO ALL THE THINGS.
THE QUEEN APPROVES.
