LA glam for Downton Abbey’s dowdy maid
HOUSEMAID Joanne Froggatt shows there is life away from Downton Abbey as she becomes a star in the US.
She recently finished filming Filth, based on the Irvine Welsh novel, alongside British heart-throb James McAvoy.
Joanne now plans to ditch the dowdy servant’s garb she wears as Anna Bates in the hit ITV series for a bit of LA glamour.
The 32-year-old said: “I’m heading to Los Angeles in a couple of months.
“It’s great because of TV’s Downton Abbey people there know who I am more than they otherwise would in Los Angeles.”
