Fans 'work out' plot for Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale after spotting major clue in trailer
Other fans took to the Downton Abbey Reddit to discuss the trailer, with one person spotting a major clue.
Responding to another user on the forum, the viewer said: "The fact that nobody else is wearing hats indicates that Robert and Cora are returning, rather than everyone leaving.
"I reckon it might be a situation in which Harold has lost everything, Robert and Cora go to pick him up, but Downton is safe due to some kind of wise investment?"
Another person wrote: "Very proud that, by the end of the series, the community has successfully figured out the plot of the finale by clocking that some characters weren't wearing hats."

Twix advert banned after complaints it promoted dangerous driving

Twix advert banned after complaints it promoted dangerous driving The advert shows a man in a car embarking on a high-speed chase with a pursuer, before swerving off the road and tumbling down a hill Twix TV advert banned after complaints it encouraged dangerous driving (Image: Twix/YouTube ) A TV advert for the popular chocolate bar, Twix, has been banned following objections that it promotes reckless driving. The advert, titled Two is More Than One, showcases a 70s-inspired car chase featuring a long-haired man in a caramel-coloured vehicle navigating through a rugged terrain with winding roads. After noticing another driver tailing him via his rear view mirror, he accelerates before yanking the handbrake, veering off to the right side of the road and rolling sideways through a metal barrier. Despite the dramatic tumble down the hill, the driver remains unfazed as the car comes to a halt, landing on an identical vehicle at the bottom of the hill. The two cars are depicted stacked roof-to-roof, with the same man seemingly occupying both vehicles. For the latest TV and showbiz gossip sign up to our newsletter The Twix bar from the top driver falls through the sunroof into the hands of the driver below, and they both shift the gear stick on the ground level car and drive off. Two cars end up roof to roof, and drive away together. (Image: Twix/YouTube ) The Advertising Standards Agency (ASA) received five complaints alleging that the advert was irresponsible and encouraged dangerous driving, reports the Express. Article continues below Mars-Wrigley, the confectionery giant that owns Twix, defended the advert by stating it "was set in a separate world that was absurd, fantastical and removed from reality," and they ensured that the acts depicted in the sequence "would be impossible to recreate", according to Sky News. The firm, which also owns brands such as Maltesers and M&Ms, stated that the cars "were shot driving at lawful speeds and any emulation would only reflect the legal and safe driving presented". Mars-Wrigley also pointed out that the advert embodied the playful and absurd humour that the Twix brand is renowned for. Clearcast, the non-profit organisation that approves adverts before they are broadcast in the UK, informed the watchdog that the style of the video made it clear to viewers that the actions depicted were not intended to be replicated, and said the ad did not suggest "safe driving was boring," according to BBC News. However, despite acknowledging that the video featured "some clearly fantastical elements," the watchdog decided to uphold the complaints, stating in its ruling that the ads "must not appear again in their current form". "We considered the road was clearly realistic," the ASA stated. "The scenes were depicted as a chase with the emphasis on speed. In addition, the first man was then shown putting the handbrake on and the car swerved off the road leaving visible skid marks. "We considered the emphasis on a chase, and the speed inherent to that, and the driving manoeuvres featured would be dangerous and irresponsible if emulated in real life on a public highway." In its ruling, the ASA instructed Mars-Wrigley "not to condone or encourage irresponsible driving that was likely to breach the legal requirements of the Highway Code in their ads." A spokesperson for Mars Wrigley UK stated: "We always take pride in maintaining high standards across all our communications and every advert we produce is submitted for approval through the appropriate review channels. Article continues below "In our view, this particular advert adopts a fantastical tone that is neither realistic nor intended to be imitated. "Nonetheless, we take our responsibility as an advertiser seriously and never intended to cause any offence or concern, so we are reviewing the ruling carefully in order to work collaboratively towards a resolution."

Love Island star Harry Cooksley had a hair transplant at just 24 years old as his transformation is revealed

LOVE Island star Harry Cooksley had a hair transplant at just 24-years-old and shared the journey to his transformation. Semi-professional footballer Harry, who is now 30, made his Love Island debut when the show returned on Monday night. 4 Harry is one of this year's Love Island stars Credit: Shutterstock 4 He jetted to Turkey at 24 to have a hair transplant Credit: YouTube 4 He described it as 'a perfect experience' Credit: YouTube While he's now got a full head of hair, that wasn't always the case for the Guildford lad - who jetted to Turkey to have the procedure. Appearing in a YouTube video posted by the clinic he visited in Istanbul, Harry explained the process and showed off the before and after results. He said: 'It was a perfect experience for something that I really wanted to have done and I'm very glad that I found EstePera.' The Love Island villa was left reeling last night when the first person was dumped just days into the series. During the first recoupling, Shakira Khan picked Harry - meaning Sophie Lee was left single and immediately sent packing. Shakira, 22, had to choose between Harry, Blu Chegini and Conor Phillips. And fans later insisted Shakira only went with Harry so that Helena Ford - who is in a couple with Conor, 25 - wouldn't be axed. One fan wrote on social media: 'Shakira well wanted to pick Conor but didn't wanna send Helena home and for that I kinda respect it. 'But also she'd suit Conor well better.' Another viewer added: 'No way she picked Harry for any reason other than she wanted the other women to stay… I simply don't believe it.' First person dumped from Love Island revealed And someone else said: 'I feel like she chose based on the girls, not the guys.' 4 Harry found himself caught up in the first dumping of the series when Sophie was axed Credit: Shutterstock Have YOU got a story or an amazing picture or video?

Welcome to Bonnie Blue's Britain

Bonnie Blue is the most famous British woman not everyone knows. Ms Blue, a 25-year-old from Nottinghamshire, has become a mainstay of social media, her blonde hair and blue eyes beaming out from TikTok feeds, Instagram reels and YouTube shorts. Her Wikipedia page gets more traffic than Beyoncé's, and a little less than Taylor Swift's, even if some still say 'Bonnie who?' when her name is mentioned. She has become a frequent guest on podcasts that enjoy immense listenership, yet create barely a ripple in older media.
