The present earl and countess testify how real life there literally inspired the BBC series Downton Abbey about a fictitious aristocratic family, shot on location. Reality is even more impressive, as the lord who married a rich wife to avoid bankruptcy also funded the archaeological dig which unearthed Tutanchamon's fabulous treasure, some artifacts even remained on the castle. History forced huge transformations, due to war, expensive labor, rising taxes etcetera.
