Last year Downton Abbey went to Scotland.  This year it looks like Downton Abbey goes to London.

Kevin Doyle, who plays the butler Molesley,  and Ed Speelers, who plays 3rd footman Jimmy Kent, were seen filming scenes in London over the weekend.  There was no sign of the family or the other servants but it does look like there might be a party or something going on from the looks of two of the many extras.  A white tie and a tiara give it away every time.
