Theodore Knighton-Barrow is the godson of Downton's first footman, Thomas Barrow. Growing up at Downton, staying primarily downstairs, of course, is quite the adventure. Dealing with the drama of the people he considers his family, Theodore must find a way to balance this, his school life, and deciding who he wants to be. Along with the man he calls his father and his three best friends, Theodore must discover who he really is, while uncovering truths about the past. - I do not own Downton Abbey of any of its characters. The only characters I have created are Theodore and his friends.
