Elsie Hughes
The Steady Hand and Kind Heart of Downton
A house runs on order, but thrives on kindness.
You won’t hear me shouting orders — a look or a word is enough. I've seen every kind of heartache and ambition pass through the servants' hall, and I’ve listened to them all. I believe in doing things properly, but more than that, I believe in doing them with a touch of understanding. The house may be built on tradition, but it's the people who keep it standing.
What I'm Into: linen cupboards, maids with big dreams, quiet talks in the corridor, Carson’s stubbornness, afternoon tea with a biscuit
