Downton Abbey movie releases adorable clip for International Dog Day

We love Downton and we love Benji!

This exclusive clip released on International Dog Day and in celebration of the upcoming Downton Abbey movie takes you through a day in the life of Benji, who plays Lord Grantham’s Labrador Teo.

Benji takes us all on an adventure round the Downton Abbey set meeting cast members such as Lord Grantham himself Hugh Bonneville, Lady Cora actress Elizabeth McGovern and Tom Branson actor Allen Leech.

If you ask us, Benji is a very good boy!

The Downton Abbey movie will centre on how the upstairs and the downstairs of the large country house cope with the arrival of some very important visitors: King George V and Queen Mary!

The royal visit looks set to turn the world of our favourites upside down, but this is all happening just as Lady Mary (Michelle Dockery) contemplates whether the future of the Crawleys lies at Downton at all.

Star of the show: Benji (FOCUS FEATURES)

Also returning for the cinematic outing are the likes of Laura Carmichael as Lady Edith, Joanne Froggatt as Anna Bates, and Brendan Coyle as Mister Bates.

New arrivals include Tuppence Middleton as a love interest for Tom Branson, and Imelda Staunton as a vicious new sparring partner for the sassy Dowager Countess (Maggie Smith).

It's certainly good to return to Downton after all this time!

And Benji especially makes it all the more cute.

Downton Abbey is released in UK cinemas on September 13, 2019.
