The co-stars were joined at the event by their hunky castmates Rob James-Collier and Allen Leech.

During the panel after the screening, creator Julian Fellowes was asked if there is something going on between Mrs. Hughes & Mr. Carson. “I think there’s something going on there,” he answered!

“I feel we get recognized more here than home. I think it has more to do with the American way. Americans are much more confident and will come over,” Michelle said about getting stopped by fans.

FYI: Michelle is wearing a Miu Miu dress, a Prada clutch, and EF Collection earrings. Laura is wearing a Richard Nicoll dress.

Downton Abbey star Rob James-Collier takes the cover of Out‘s February 2013 issue, on newsstands January 15.

Here is what the 36-year-old actor had to share with the mag:

On being an outgoing actor: “Most actors are really shy and insular creatures. I’ve just always been a d-ck. [On my first day of acting class] we were doing these warm-up exercises, running around doing crazy things with our voices, and, rather than feeling embarrassed or stupid, I just felt that I’d come home.”

On the original plans for his character: “My agent said, ‘Listen, you’ve got the part that everyone in town wants�”he’s a villain, he’s a great role, the only bad thing is that he dies at the end of the first [season]. I gave it 110 percent, and after the first couple of episodes, Liz, the producer, came to me and said, ‘We want you to stay on. Will you?’ And I was, like, ‘F–k, yeah.’ ”

On playing a gay character in season three: “It’s the [season] where we really get to grips with Thomas’s sexuality and the impact that must have had on him, being gay in Edwardian times. If you’re including a gay character, there’s an onus and responsibility to at least show what the impact of the time will be on him, and of him on that time. Thankfully we’ve done that, and I’m so proud as an actor that I’ve been used to tell that tale.”
