Downton Abbey new series to welcome Joanna David as 'Duchess of Yeovil'
It is not a place famed for its aristocratic links but the ‘helicopter town’ of Yeovil will find itself fit for a Duchess when the next series of Downton Abbey hits television screens.
Actress Joanna David, mother of fellow actress Emilia Fox will join the cast of the hit ITV drama, playing the Duchess of Yeovil.

Joanna David will be the Duchess of Yeovil
Downton Abbey’s creator, Oscar-winning actor Lord Fellowes of West Stafford, lives 25 miles away in the Dorset village from which he has taken his own title and he has clearly had fun giving fictional life to other communities.
Tom Cullen will play dashing Lord Gillingham, lined up as a possible love interest for the widowed Lady Mary. Viewers will have to wait until the new series starts in September to discover whether Gillingham is pronounced as in Gillingham Dorset, or as in Gillingham, Kent, but the odds are on a win for Dorset.
