A source at ITV tells the newspaper, “We'd heard the Obamas liked to watch it but we were very surprised when someone from the First Lady's office got in touch asking for the series. They were very polite and we were more than happy to sort out some DVDs to send over.” However, ITV said they hoped the Obamas could keep a secret and not spoil the big finale for the rest of the overseas fans.
The costume drama is very popular across the world and the audience loves how typically British the show is. But the President is such a fan that he even invited Downton Abbey stars Hugh Bonneville and Elizabeth McGovern — the Earl and Countess of Grantham — to his White House dinner for David Cameron in March.
Meanwhile, British actor Damian Lewis recently revealed that the President is also a big fan of his show Homeland, and had also requested a signed DVD box of the American spy series.
