LADY MARY WOULD APPROVE!

Downton Abbey star Michelle Dockery romps with swarthy hunk in new TV series Good Behavior

Lady Mary Crawley actress stars as thief Letty Dobesh in new gritty TV series

DOWNTON Abbey star Michelle Dockery swaps a corset for not much at all in this steamy scene from Good Behavior.

Michelle, 34, who plays thief and con artist Letty Dobesh in the US thriller, puts her nimble fingers to good use during her romp with a hunky hitman.

She's shown removing her bathrobe before coiling herself around Javier - played by 41-year-old Argentine-Spaniard Juan Diego Botto - to convince him to stop a planned assassination.

The London beauty is best known for her role as Lady Mary Crawley in the ITV period drama, for which she was nominated for three Emmy Awards and a Golden Globe.

She also received Screen Actors Guild award nominations during her five years on the hit show.

But in December last year tragedy hit when her fiance John Dineen died of cancer, seeing the actress skip an appearance on US talk show The View to be by his side as he passed away.

She told mourners that the Irish financial PR, who was 34, had been "my friend, my hero, my king, my everything".

Having premiered in November, the first series of TNT's Good Behavior sees Michelle's hapless character attempt to derail her dashing love interest's goal of killing a man's wife.

She overhears the plot while hiding in a hotel room closet during a robbery-gone-wrong.

Constantly beset by problems, Letty has just left prison and is subject to an order of protection meaning she cannot see her son.
