Fans don’t want Masterpiece’s Downton Abbey to end, and PBS doesn’t, either: The Emmy-winning U.K. import is officially the network’s highest-rated drama of all time. But end it shall, with a sixth and final season kicking off January 3, and the show’s cast and producers joined reporters at PBS’s summer press tour today to bid a fond farewell to the Crawleys.

　　粉丝们都不想看到伟大的《唐顿庄园》终结，其实PBS也不想：这部英国出品的艾美奖大赢家已经成为该电台有史以来收视率最高的连续剧。随着第六季也是最终季于1月3日开播，今天，该剧的剧组以及制片人跟记者一道加入PBS的夏季巡回发布会。来好好跟克劳利家族道个别吧。

　　The panel kicked off with a tantalizing glimpse of what’s in store for the final season. The year is 1925: The kids are growing up, Edith is looking to spread her wings (“I’d like a life”), and even though they’re engaged, Mr. Carson still refuses to call Mrs. Hughes by her first name. (It’s “Elsie,” for the record.) Plus, we’ll get to see the Dowager Countess and Isobel locked in another verbal sparring match, with the Countess hissing, “May the best man win.” (And the best man is always the Dowager Countess, of course.)

　　发布会以一则最终季的预告片作为开头，撩起我们十足的好奇。那是1925年，卡劳利家的小孩子们都长大了，伊迪丝正准备成就一番事业(“我要过有意义的人生”)。虽然管家卡森和休斯太太已经订婚了，刻板的卡森仍然不肯直呼其名。(你们可能都不知道，她的名字叫“埃尔斯”。)还有，我们又能看到这位伯爵遗孀同伊索贝尔之间的唇枪舌战了。伯爵夫人轻声说：“愿能者胜。”(我们都知道，能者永远都是指她自己)。

　　The cast only has two weeks left of filming on the series, and they’ve already wrapped production at Highclere Castle, which stands in for Downton on the show. Hugh Bonneville (Lord Grantham) remembers the cast gathering for a “team photo” in the Granthams’ dining room, and Michelle Dockery (Lady Mary) and Laura Carmichael (Lady Edith) said they shared a moment together on the famous bench outside the castle: “We had a good cry.”

　　本剧离最终季杀青只剩下两周时间，剧组已经完成了海克莱尔城堡，即剧中的唐顿庄园部分的拍摄。休•博纳威尔(饰格兰瑟姆伯爵)回忆起剧组成员都聚集在格兰瑟姆家的餐厅拍摄“大合影”时的情景，而米歇尔•多克里(饰玛丽小姐)和劳拉•卡米歇尔(饰伊迪丝小姐)聊起他们坐在城堡外那张著名的长凳上的那一刻：“我们大哭了一场。”

　　But dry your eyes, Downton fans: Even though the show is definitely ending, executive producer Gareth Neame confirms that a follow-up movie is still a possibility. “We might… it’s something we’ve talked about,” he says, adding that there is plenty of “rich territory” left, dramatically speaking. But, he’s quick to say, “there are no firm plans at all” for a movie — yet.

　　快把眼泪擦干吧，唐顿迷们：虽然这部剧铁定要终结了，执行制片人加尔斯•尼姆确认很有可能将其拍成电影。他说：“我们或许...我们曾经谈起这件事，”然后又补充说，从戏剧性角度来看，故事背后留下了丰富的发展空间。但是他又马上申明:"我们还没有任何的计划"真的把这部剧拍成电影——至少现在还没有。

　　* Penelope Wilton (Isobel) talked about her scenes with Emmy winner Maggie Smith, and their characters’ “fractious and affectionate relationship.” But she admits she’s always at a disadvantage because of how much creator Julian Fellowes delights in writing dialogue for Smith: “I think in another life, Julian would be Lady Grantham.”

　　皮内洛浦•威尔顿(伊索贝尔)谈到她与艾米奖得主麦吉•史密斯的对手戏，以及他们的角色之间那“互相看不顺眼又很有爱的关系”。但是她承认她总是处于劣势，因为剧作者朱利安•法勒斯太喜欢为史密斯写台词了：“我想如果有来生，朱利安很愿意当一回格兰瑟姆伯爵夫人。”
