Welcoming Martha Levinson

Shirley MacLaine knows the beauty of pearls.


Tuesday, January 31st, USA Today released a statement that Shirley MacLaine, the Virginia native, would be joining Downton Abbey for the third season as Martha Levinson, Lady Grantham's mother.  IMDB does not have her role listed either under Shirley MacLaine's page (as of today) nor under the Season Three page for Downton Abbey.  I knew there was a reason why I read the Life section of USA Today and used the rest of the newspaper for paper mache.  Rumors are that Season Three will begin filming next month and thus we may finally know more.
