"Downton Abbey: A New Era" Says Goodbye to a Major Character

Surprisingly, Mr. Molesley finally gets his time to shine in "A New Era." When the film crew struggle to convert their silent film into a talkie, Molesley offers to use his lipreading talents to reconstruct some of the dialogue from already-filmed scenes. He also winds up helping to write some new dialogue, impressing director Jack Barber with his skills. In the end, he's offered a job in Hollywood as a screenwriter. Finally, he proposes to Miss Baxter (who accepts), although he doesn't realize the entire household hears him as a hot mic was nearby.
