Actress Michelle Dockery is best known for starring as the brilliant and brutally honest Lady Mary Crawley in the TV series Downton Abbey, for which she’s won a number of awards. In this first episode of a new series of The Chromologist she invites Patrick O’Donnell into her London home to talk about the colours which have shaped her life. Together they discuss the deep green of her indie youth, the fiery red of her Downton Abbey decade and the rich blue of her life now and her emergence more recently as a singer. ‘The last few years I’ve really fallen in love with blue and particularly Inchyra blue,’ she says ‘I find it a really calming colour and I think it reminds me of some of the amazing places I’ve filmed in over the years – those beautiful old estates.’
