“Downton Abbey,” a Masterpiece period drama series, cast members including Michelle Dockery, Hugh Bonneville, Allen Leech, were spotted in Bampton, Oxfordshire, Britain. They were on set filming episodes for the upcoming Season 5 of the TV series on April 24, 2014.  

Dockery, who plays the role of Lady Mary Crawley, wore a plum-colored suit, and the male stars sported brown suits, as they filmed in a meadow. Mirror released pictures from the set, as did Huffington Post

Bonneville will return as Lord Grantham, and Leech is also spotted with the family, meaning he hasn’t moved to the U.S., like he planned, the Mirror writes.
