ミシェル・ドッカリーのフィアンセ死去
GODは無慈悲ですなあ・・・（爆ｗｗｗｗｗｗｗｗ
Mary Josephine Talbot (née Crawley) (played by Michelle Dockery), the eldest daughter of Lord and Lady Grantham, is twenty-one in April 1912, when the series begins.[4] Early on, she is portrayed as a petulant and cold young woman; as the series progresses, however, she shows more vulnerability and compassion. One of her most constant traits is her unfailing devotion to Downton as her home and, eventually, the estate which she will preside over.
In the first episode, news of the deaths of her two cousins, James and Patrick, is a shock because it disrupts the family's strategy for dealing with the entail that requires the estate, incorporating her mother's large marriage settlement, as well as the title to pass to male heirs. The family had arranged that Mary would marry Patrick, second in line to the title after James, but Mary did not have strong feelings for him and questions whether she must even wear mourning clothes. Early on in the series, she is seduced by a visitor to the house, Ottoman attaché Kemal Pamuk, who suddenly dies in her bed. Her outraged mother and the Chief Housemaid, Anna, help her carry his body out of her room and back to his own to try to prevent a public scandal that would ruin her marriage prospects.
Mary's relationship with the new heir, distant cousin, Matthew Crawley, begins coldly as she overhears him complaining to his mother that he expects the family will "push" the daughters on him. She refuses to acknowledge him as the new heir, declaring that he was "not one of us". Over time, however, the pair grow closer and a romance develops. In 1914, Matthew asks Mary to marry him, but she is hesitant. However her mother becomes pregnant, and if the baby is a boy, he will inherit the title instead of Matthew, so Mary delays her acceptance of his proposal on the advice of her aunt, Lady Rosamund. Another reason for her hesitancy was that she feels she would have to tell Matthew about the incident with Mr Pamuk. Heartbroken and angered by her hesitancy, Matthew withdraws his proposal and decides to leave Downton. When the First World War is declared, Matthew joins the British Army and becomes engaged to Lavinia Swire.
As Matthew fights in Europe, Mary gets engaged to Sir Richard Carlisle, a newspaper magnate who — after Mary's confession and request for his assistance — promises to help keep the Pamuk affair under wraps. They plan to marry in July 1919, after the marriage of Matthew and Lavinia, and to move to a neighbouring, stately home that Sir Richard plans to buy and completely renovate. After Lavinia's death, it becomes clear that Matthew and Mary still have feelings for each other. Her relationship with Sir Richard deteriorates, and Lord Grantham in particular, becomes concerned that she would not be happy with the marriage even if it meant wealth and status. In 1920 Lord Grantham's distress finally prompts Lady Grantham to tell him the truth regarding Mr Pamuk. Although initially disappointed, he makes up his mind almost at once; he tells Mary to break off the engagement to Sir Richard and spend time with her mother's family in America to wait out the furore that will follow. Overjoyed that her father has not abandoned her, Mary finally manages to tell Matthew the truth; although initially shocked, he also agrees that she must be rid of Sir Richard. As soon as Sir Richard returns, she ends their engagement; he angrily vows to break the story, and then insults Matthew with cruel remarks about Lavinia. Matthew attacks Sir Richard, who leaves Downton shortly afterwards, never to return. Just as the Servant's Ball ends, Matthew reveals that he does not feel the need to forgive Mary for her affair with Pamuk as there was nothing to forgive, and proposes to her again, and the two become engaged.
In series 3 the couple happily plan and prepare for their wedding, but a shadow is cast when Lord Grantham reveals Downton's finances are in ruins. Matthew then learns that Lavinia's father Reginald, who died in the Christmas Special, has made him one of his potential heirs, and he now stands to inherit an unexpected fortune if the others cannot be found. Unwilling to take the money on false pretenses, given his conflicted feelings regarding Lavinia, Matthew vows not to keep it. Mary is initially distraught by his decision and threatens to call the wedding off. The words of Branson and Anna, as well as a short conversation and a kiss, persuade them to put aside any conflict, and they happily marry the next day.
After her youngest sister Sybil dies, Mary supports her brother-in-law Tom Branson's decision to raise her niece and goddaughter, Sybil "Sybbie" Branson, a Catholic. While she and Matthew are intent on having children, it is hinted throughout the series that they could be having trouble conceiving. Matthew believes he might not be able to have children as a result of the severe back injury he suffered at Amiens in 1918 during the Great War, which temporarily paralysed him from the waist down. In the penultimate episode of Series 3, Mary and Matthew meet by coincidence at a reproductive health clinic in London, where Mary reveals to Matthew that she underwent a small and successful operation in order to strengthen their chances of conceiving (the nature of the problem is not disclosed). Despite previous tension between them, the series ends with them happily reaffirming their love for each other as they celebrate the birth of their son, George. Unfortunately, Matthew is killed in a car accident after leaving the maternity hospital on his drive back to Downton. Due to Matthew's death, Mary will never become Countess of Grantham as her son is now the heir apparent.
For months she remains in mourning, until the combined efforts of Carson, Tom, and Violet bring her out of it. Robert tries to keep full control over Downton now that Matthew is dead and the heir, George, is still a baby, but a letter is found from Matthew stating he intended to name Mary his sole heiress. Though he never actually wrote a will, it is determined that the letter was meant to serve as such until he could finalise a proper one. Mary as a result owns half the estate and she immediately begins working with Tom in the management. She also urges Tom to speak to her when she sees something is wrong (namely Edna Braithwaite's scheming) but he feels she would despise him and says nothing, however she urges him to find someone that he can talk to. Tom eventually confides in Mrs Hughes, and she quickly puts an end to Edna's blackmail. Later, when Tom presents the family with the idea of leaving, perhaps for America, she is the only one who speaks out against it.
She eventually has two suitors. First is Anthony – or Tony – Foyle, Lord Gillingham, an old childhood acquaintance whom she turns down as she hasn't moved on from Matthew. He becomes engaged to another woman, but calls it off as he still has feelings for Mary. Later, Evelyn Napier returns with his boss, Charles Blake. Mary and Blake do not hit it off to start, until both dirty themselves in order to help out some pigs that the family had begun to invest in and they warm up to one another. When Mary learns from Anna that she was raped by Lord Gillingham's valet Green, she goes to Gillingham and urges him to sack Green without telling him why. In the 2013 Christmas special, Mrs Hughes hands Mary evidence potentially implicating Mr Bates in Green's subsequent death. Although Mary suffers initially from a crisis of conscience, when Bates proves instrumental in averting a royal scandal caused in part by Rose, she decides to destroy the evidence. It is later revealed that the ticket in fact proved his innocence.
After Rose declares to Mary her intentions to marry African American jazz singer Jack Ross, Mary goes and speaks to him, citing that she feels Rose's primary reason is to shock her mother, whom she hates. Jack tells her he does not want Rose to suffer and has already decided to break off their relationship. When he tells her he wouldn't do it if they lived in a better world, Mary replies that if they were in a better world, she wouldn't want him to.
Although Blake and Gillingham initially vie for Mary's affections, Blake decides to back down, and Tony offers to have a sexual relationship with Mary to persuade her of his love, but the encounter leaves Mary even more unsure of her feelings. Mary later decides to turn Gillingham down, but he refuses to break up with her, as he believes they are to be married. Soon his previous fiancee Mabel Lane Fox reappears, with the help of Blake, and divides his attention. Blake then intervenes again, and kisses Mary in front of Gillingham at a theater to persuade Tony that their "understanding" is over. Tony then tells Mary that he is re-engaged with Mabel, although it is clear that he loves Mary more, and is just settling with Mabel. Blake then tells Mary he is departing for Poland for several months. While at a shooting party at a rented castle of cousin Rose's new husband's parents, Mary meets Henry Talbot (played by Matthew Goode). Mary is at first cold to him, but then warms up to him when she sees what a good shooter he is. Talbot believes Mary is a war widow, but Mary is about to tell Talbot that her husband actually died in a car accident in 1921 (three years prior). She learns that Talbot is a race car driver, and they dance at a party. The next morning Talbot abruptly leaves.
