ITV has also released a trailer for the sixth and final season of Downton Abbey. Deadline.com reported that "not much has been publicly revealed about the upcoming farewell, other than it being set in 1925. The teaser above does presage more change at the Abbey as Robert Crawley (Hugh Bonneville) tells Mr. Carson (Jim Carter), '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.' " The PBS Masterpiece debut in the U.S. is scheduled for January 3.
