Upstairs Downstairs Netflix Cast in Full
Lady Agnes Holland - Keeley Hawes
The household's matriarch, Lady Agnes possesses fierce ambition and social refinement, though conceals complexities that remain largely unknown. Keeley Hawes is recognised for major roles including Line of Duty, Bodyguard, The Assassin, Spooks, Ashes to Ashes, and her latest appearance in Channel 4's Falling.
Sir Hallam Holland - Ed Stoppard
Sir Hallam operates according to firm ethical principles, yet his political ambitions frequently clash with his personal frailties. Ed Stoppard's credits encompass The Pianist, The Undeclared War, Trackers, and Brave New World.
Lady Persephone Towyn - Claire Foy
Claire Foy has established herself as a period drama stalwart, celebrated for embodying Queen Elizabeth II in The Crown's opening two series. Her portfolio also includes Wolf Hall, Savage House, Women Talking, and A Very British Scandal. Raised in rural Wales, Lady Persephone yearns for thrills and possesses a defiant nature.
Mr Warwick Pritchard - Adrian Scarborough
Adrian Scarborough is perhaps most recognisable for his portrayal of Pete Sutcliffe in Gavin and Stacey, though he's also featured in Vera Drake, Mr Big Stuff, Falling, Bloods, and Sanditon. He portrays a priggish and highly strung gentleman concealing an unexpected and troubled past.
Miss Whisset - Sarah Lancashire
Happy Valley fans will spot Catherine Cawood actress Sarah Lancashire in this costume drama. Beyond Happy Valley, Lancashire has appeared in Last Tango in Halifax, Black Doves, and Lark Rise to Candleford. She plays a forthright woman shrouded in secrecy who declines to wed Mr Pritchard.
Clarice Thackeray - Anne Reid
Widow Clarice Thackeray is spirited and sharp-witted, maintaining the kitchen to exceptionally exacting standards. Anne Reid headlines Last Tango in Halifax and is memorable for portraying Valerie Barlow in Coronation Street and Jean in Dinnerladies.
Blanche Mottershead - Alex Kingston
ER, Doctor Who, and Strictly Come Dancing performer Alex Kingston brings Dr Blanche Mottershead to life. She's characterised as a fiercely independent and forward-thinking archaeologist, uncompromising in her feminist principles.
