Downton Abbey fans are reportedly going to have something special to look forward to this holiday season based on some new images.

Series To End After Fifth Season?

On Sunday, Express posted some photos of the cast filming at Bluebell Railway as they stood at the station. And rumor has it that this episode in particular will be for the Christmas special.

The actors appeared to be enjoying themselves as they smiled at each other and appeared to be waving at others.

George Clooney To Join The Series?

There doesn't seem to be any word on when this episode will air since the season premiere is expected to begin in early 2015.

Actress Joanne Froggatt recently dished to GoldDerby on her character Anna, and what the character and her husband will have to deal with in the aftermath of her sexual assault.

"We start Season 5 with Anna Bates in a slightly more positive place," the actress said. "The season finale was a year on from the attack. Time has moved forward...but there is still this shadow hanging over them, so they still have more hurdles to cross, unfortunately."

Froggatt also compared some of her scenes from the fourth season on which would be worth submitting for an Emmy consideration.

"I'm not sure, I haven't really thought that far ahead," she said. "I think, you know, obviously episode three, very dramatic when the attack happens, but also I think possibly the more interesting part of the story's episode four or five when Anna's struggling to come to terms with what's happening to her and she can't express herself to Mr. Bates and that's their whole emotional journey."

Downton Abbey Season 5 is expected to premiere in January 2015 on PBS.
