New research from Betway has compared the best male stars of the hit show.

As Downton Abbey is making a triumphant return this month with the much-anticipated film, Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale, new research has delved into who the public believes is the ultimate Downton bachelor.

Online casino Betway compared the male stars of the show, cross-referencing peak five-year monthly search volume, the volume of Reddit comments and those that were positive, their average IMDb ratings, and social media followings.

In first place is Dan Stevens, who played Matthew Crawley. Dan received a total of 109,000 monthly searches and an IMDb rating of 6.66. However, he made his way to the top after bagging the highest attractiveness rating of 9.12 as well as the highest social media following of 670,157.

In second place was Thomas Howes, who is best known for his character William Mason in the franchise. Despite having a lower number of Reddit comments, the Downton star received the second-highest attractiveness rating as well as the highest IMDb rating on the list.

Robert James-Collier and Ed Cooper Clarke followed behind, after portraying their roles of characters Thomas Barrow and Timothy Grey. While Ed had only 5,000 monthly searches and 27 Reddit comments altogether, he had a stronger number of social media followers and an IMDb rating of 6.71. Meanwhile, Robert had a higher monthly search volume and a positive sentiment score of 56.7.

Michael Fox, who plays Andrew Parker in Downton, raked in the highest monthly search volume of 569,000, while Iain Glen, who is known for portraying Sir Richard Carlisle, had the second-highest social media following in total.
