The internet is seriously relieved that Downton Abbey’s Anna and Bates are finally free
As Green's true killer is found and jailed, Downton's unlucky couple are finally free - and fans are beside themselves
It’s official. Anna and Bates are finally free. For the first time in what feels like years, the couple are not under threat or facing life in a cell.
Green’s true killer has been found and jailed. Happiness might just be on the horizon for Downton’s unluckiest love match.
Downton Abbey fans are so used to misery that the news all came as a bit of a shock…
Wait, is this actual happy news for Anna & Bates! 😃 #fetchthedrink #DowntonAbbey

We almost didn’t recognise Anna and Bates with their new, happy facial expressions…
Is this the first time that Anna and Bates have smiled? #Downton

But it’s safe to say the internet was pleased for them…

After seasons of upset, though, fans can’t quite bring themselves to trust writer Julian Fellowes. It is only episode one after all…
This feels a bit too promising. I swear if Bates and Anna don't get a happy ending there's going to be riots in the streets #DowntonAbbey

Oh Anna and Bates, happy at last? Can it be? #DowntonAbbey

Because he’s already set up a new storyline which could potentially bring the Bates’ more distress.
Finally!! Justice for Anna & Bates!! Baby next please 🍼 @DowntonAbbey

For now, our collective fingers are crossed that this is it for the not-so-happy couple.
Right. Can that be the end of all Anna-Bates drama please? Over. It. #DowntonAbbey

If Bates and Anna don't get a happy ending, I will destroy everything Julian Fellowes holds dear #DA
