Patrick Crawley Was Robert Crawley's Heir Before Matthew
Lord Grantham was bad with money and largely lived off of his American wife's considerable dowry, so he'd hoped Patrick would wed his eldest daughter, Lady Mary. Lord Grantham's middle daughter, Lady Edith, actually loved Patrick. For the better part of Downton Abbey's first two seasons, the main plotline followed Mary and new suitor Matthew Crawley on their contentious but passionate "will they, won't they" journey to marriage. Yet, while the dial was still firmly on "won't they," everything...
It's Possible Patrick Crawley's Survival Was Actually a Case of Misidentification
The would-be Patrick claimed he survived the legendary Titanic shipwreck, being one of the last men pulled out of the icy waters. The trauma he suffered gave him amnesia afterward. He was misidentified and ended up in Canada, where he assumed the name Gordon, taken from a bottle of gin. When the Great War broke out, Patrick Gordon signed up for Princess Pat's Infantry and shipped off to fight. He got seriously wounded in battle, sustaining the burns on his face. Improbably, the head traum...
Though the Mystery Is Never Truly Solved, It's Possible Gordon was an Opportunist
There was no way to prove Gordon's story, even after Lord Grantham sent a handwritten account of his story to a lawyer in London. With Edith's encouragement, Gordon believed he was going to stay, and instead of accepting Lady Mary as his bride, he only had eyes for Edith now. Still, Lady Mary remained skeptical. When Edith talks about the things "Patrick" knew from their childhood, Mary guessed precisely the "memories" he shared. She said any kids who grew up in a place like Downton Abbeywoul...
More than Just Highly Dramatic, the Patrick Crawley Storyline Showcased the Aristocracy as a Failing System
While Downton Abbeydoes present an idealized version of the British royal aristocracy, at least via the central family, the series was about how the traditions worked as a caste system, especially under primogeniture. Since women weren't able to inherit titles or property, Lord Grantham's family was set to lose their home. Edith loved Patrick Crawley, but because of the rules of succession, he would have likely had to marry her sister instead. On one level, this story highlighted how Edith's...
