Keeping with the theme of the show, the Earl and Countess will have a little jazz (Lady Rose would approve), a little gin (everyone on Downtonwould approve), and a lot of throwback glamour (fans of the show and movie will definitely approve).

It's not every day you get an invitation to sip gin and mingle with a Countess, so anyone interested should get their outfit laid out, make sure their lady's maid is set, and prepare for a night to remember.
