'Downton Abbey': season 3 sneak peek (video)

“Downton Abbey” doesn’t return until January 2013 but PBS was kind enough to release a clip of the premiere episode featuring Maggie Smith and newest cast member Shirley MacLaine.

It’s a shame we have to wait that long for the fireworks to begin. 

Check out a clip below:
