George Clooney took Amal Alamuddin on a surprise tour of the 'Downton Abbey' set.
The 53-year-old actor, who became engaged to the British human rights lawyer last month, arrived at his fiancée's London home unannounced earlier this week and whisked her away on a trip to nearby Surrey, in southeast England, where he took her to visit the set of one of her favourite TV shows.
A source told The Sun newspaper: "George took Amal completely by surprise.
"He turned up at nearly midnight after jetting into Heathrow.
"George literally told Amal to grab some clothes before they jumped in a cab down to Surrey.
"She though it was so romantic, she loves how unpredictable he is. The set visit to Downton Abbey was the icing on the cake of a crazy few hours."
The couple are said to have indulged in a romantic stroll around the grounds of Highclere Castle, where the ITV period drama is set.
Meanwhile, 'The Monuments Men' star is expected to meet his future mother-in-law, who lives in nearby Buckinghamshire, while visiting the UK.
It's been reported that George will relocate to London once the pair have married so that Amal can continue her work as a barrister at the Doughty Street Chambers.

Ashlee Simpson and Evan Ross will reportedly be getting married at Diana Ross' mansion.
The 29-year-old singer and 'The Hunger Games: Mockingjay' actor - who is the son of the 'I'm Coming Out' hitmaker - are said to be planning to tie the knot at the home in West Hollywood, California on Labour Day, which falls on the first Monday in September, according to the New York Post newspaper's PageSix.
Evan, 25, popped the question to Ashlee - who is the younger sister of Jessica Simpson - in January after six months of dating, but admitted previously that he was so smitten with the star he could have proposed much sooner.
He also admitted that his mother Diana, 70, would be helping him and his fiancée plan their nuptials.
He said: "She's involved in every part of our wedding [and] engagement party."
The news comes months after Evan confessed that he was so desperate to be married to Ashlee - who has five-year-old son Bronx from her marriage to Fall Out Boy star Pete Wentz - that he was considering eloping.
He said: "Honestly, we could go and get married right now, wherever. We just want to be married. We're in love."

Angelina Jolie asked fiance Brad Pitt before she agreed to cast Vivienne in 'Maleficent'.
The 38-year-old actress who plays the titular villain in the re-imagining of Walt Disney's 1959 'Sleeping Beauty' worked opposite her adorable five-year-old daughter who portrays the young Princess Aurora and she admits it was a joint decision with her hunky partner before she agreed to let the tot have the part.
Talking to collider.com, she said: "We realised that there was no way that we were going to find a four or five-year-old that I could be as strong with, that would not see me as a monster. Suddenly, there was Vivi, running around looking like little Aurora and everybody thought, 'Oh, the answer is right there.' But then, I had to go home and talk to dad. It's our kid, so it's so sweet. The idea of it was so cute to us, as mummy and daddy. But then, there was the fact that she would be in a film. All of that took us a second."
Jolie admits it was hard at times enticing Vivienne to do the right things but little one had the support of her whole family - including siblings Maddox, 12, Pax, 10, Zahara, nine, Shiloh, seven, and Knox, five - while she was working on the film.
She added: "The first day was the day that she had to catch the butterfly, and she just really didn't feel like doing it. I actually was holding the pole with the ball on the end, and bouncing up and down and dancing, trying to make her laugh. And daddy was on the edge of the cliff that she had to jump off, making faces and doing all of these things. And her brothers and sisters were egging her on. She eventually did it, but she was taking her sweet time, and didn't want to do it twice, certainly."

Arctic Monkeys wanted Prince to join them at their London gigs this weekend.
The 'Do I Wanna Know?' hitmakers want some special guests at their massive shows in Hyde Park, and though the 'Purple Rain' hitmaker was at the top of their wish list, they didn't ask him as they knew he wouldn't accept their request.
Bassist Nick O'Malley said: "We were talking about bringing Prince in to do the high backing vocals - they'd probably be low backing vocals for him anyway.
"But we've never met him and I doubt he'd be up for that. For the size of the show though, you really should do something."
The group admits they could have headlined such big gigs - which will see them perform to 50,000 people over the course of the weekend - earlier in their career, but think they will give a better performance because of the way their latest album, 'AM', has connected with fans.
Frontman Alex Turner added to NME magazine: "Probably in terms of selling tickets, we could have done something like this before but we weren't as on fire then as we are now.
"We couldn't do what we're doing now without that record. Had we done it before, I think it would have, in some way, still have been based on the first album and its success. To some extent, everything is built on that, but now, it's the new record most people want to hear."

Justin Theroux will marry Jennifer Aniston on his birthday.
The couple will reportedly tie the knot on August 10 - two years to the day the actor proposed on his 41st birthday - after undergoing "months of therapy" to talk through their problems.
A source told Britain's Grazia magazine: "After talking honestly, their issues seemed to evaporate.
"Justin admitted he hated the idea of an over-the-top wedding. Jen's happily agreed to a low-key do with friends and family.
"Jen's thrilled and Justin couldn't be happier."
Justin has reportedly agreed to relocate permanently from New York to Jennifer's Los Angeles home.
The source continued: "Jen doesn't like Justin going to NY alone and lunching with his ex-fiancee Heidi Bivens.
"But once she offered him space to script-write, Justin agreed to move his office to Los Angeles."
It was recently claimed the couple have been working on a script together.
A source said: "They worked out a story idea and a list of characters, and when Justin went away on a job for a week, Jen was so inspired she just kept on writing - alone."
But Justin was reportedly less than impressed with her efforts and it caused tension between the couple.
The source said: "Jen got the message loud and clear, shrieking, 'Are you kidding me? You're the one who pushed me to do this. I told you I wasn't a writer. Justin wisely zipped it as Jen angrily ripped up her pages and stormed off."

Ashley Roberts sees a spiritual guide and a guru regularly.
The former Pussycat Dolls star thinks it should be compulsory to have a "life coach" and she has an "army" of people to consult to help her make personal and professional decisions.
She said: "Growing up in school you're given maths and science but you're not given life classes.
"A few years ago I felt like my dreams were getting fulfilled but I wasn't happy, so I decided to seek out a life coach.
"I think everyone should have one because sometimes you do need a bit of help. I've got a team that I see - a swami [spiritual guide], an acupuncturist, a guru. I've got a whole army."
The 32-year-old beauty felt "burnt out" when she left Pussycat Dolls in 2010 and found spending time with a guru helped reignite her "passion" for her career.
She added to Stylist magazine: "After the Pussycat Dolls, I was burnt out. So when I left them in 2010 I did take a second to say, 'Right, I've done this for seven years, who the hell am I as an individual? Do I still want to do this?'
"I took a good couple of years out and followed a guru called Amma around and did a three-day retreat of hugging and mantras. That really helped me get my passion back."

Thandie Newton's son was born on her bathroom floor.
The British actress and husband Ol Parker welcomed baby Booker Jombe in March but she didn't want him to be born at a hospital so arranged for a midwife to be at her home instead.
She told US TV's 'Today' show: "He was born on the bathroom floor.
"I had just associated hospital with being ill, and I felt beautiful and healthy and wonderful when I was pregnant, and being at home is the place I felt most relaxed and comfortable."
The 41-year-old actress also had daughters Ripley, 13, and Nico, nine, at home, and feels it to be perfectly natural.
She added: "For me, it feels normal. There was a time when everybody had their babies at home and it wasn't such a big deal."
The 'Crash' actress announced her pregnancy in September and later admitted she was finding it tough working on action-packed police drama 'Rogue', in which she plays undercover cop Grace Travis.
She said: "Basically, I had two options; to withdraw from the show which would have meant the show collapsing, or to commit regardless.
"I'd seem actresses takes on meaty un-pregnant roles while carrying babies - Jodie Foster in 'Panic Room'. My agent also reassured me that both Claire Danes and Anna Paquin worked well into their first pregnancies. So - it was all going to work out just fine wasn't it?
"We're on episode nine, and are near enough to finishing for me to be able to chuckle at my naivety in thinking this was going to be anything other than mayhem, with a waddling lead actress at the centre.'"

Sir Paul McCartney has been hospitalised in Tokyo.
The Beatles legend had to cancel two dates of his Out There Japan Tour 2014 in the country's capital and Osaka after falling ill with a virus, which eventually led to him being sent to hospital.
His spokesperson said today (22.05.14): "Since contracting a virus last week that led to the postponement of tour dates, Paul received successful medical treatment at a hospital in Tokyo.
"He will make a complete recovery and has been ordered to take a few days rest.
"Paul has been extremely moved by all the messages and well wishes he has received from fans all over the world.
The 71-year-old rocker has also postponed a show in Seoul, South Korea, but is still set to continue with his tour of the US next month.
The 'Hey Jude' singer is reportedly "upset" about the situation as "he has only ever had to reschedule a handful of shows in his entire career" and hates disappointing fans.
An earlier statement from Paul on his website about the cancellations reads: "I'm so very touched. Unfortunately my condition has not improved overnight.
"I was really hoping that I'd be feeling better today. I'm so disappointed and sorry to be letting my fans down."

Adam Sandler claims Drew Barrymore finds doing romantic scenes with him awkward.
The funnyman has teamed up with the actress for a third time in new comedy 'Blended', and joked how doing intimate scenes with his friend gets more difficult for her as time goes on.
He said: "Absolutely, for Drew every time. It's been awkward [since] when we were strangers for her. But I keep saying, 'They paid you buddy, get in here.' "
The duo have previously appeared together in 'The Wedding Singer' and '50 First Dates' and Adam, 47, joked he gives her a few years off between movies.
He added to E! news: "She wouldn't want it every day, so I have to give her a pass every four or five years. And then I jump in and remind her of why she moved on."
Meanwhile, Drew - who is married to Will Kopelman, with whom she has one-month-old daughter Frankie and 20-month-old daughter Olive - claims she's the one that's always bugging Adam to work with her.
She told the Huffington Post: "I tend to be the one to nudge Adam. With 'The Wedding Singer', I was like, 'We have to work together, we have to find something. I've been saying that you and I are cinematic soul mates,' which probably sounded really crazy at the time because he didn't know me.
"'50 First Dates' was actually a different script. It was more of a drama ... Then he did a lot of writing on it and we made it into more of a comedy, and it is what it is. With this one, I reached out to him and said, 'Okay, I think it's time again!' And he was like, 'Okay, I'll go find something.'
"And then he called me months later and said he thought he'd found it."

Jessica Alba insists she's a "prude".
The 33-year-old actress may have first caught the attention of many playing stripper Nancy Callahan in 'Sin City' - a role she will reprise for the movie's sequel, 'A Dame to Kill For', later this year - but insists her on-screen sexiness is all an act.
Speaking to Entertainment Weekly magazine - which she appears on the cover of, emerging from a swimming pool in a white bikini - Jessica says: "I never slept my way through Hollywood, so I never felt like I compromised.
"Apparently people do it, I didn't. I felt like I never compromised myself because I'm a prude. I don't know. I grew up Catholic. In my head I'm always thinking, 'Oh God, can my grandma see this?' "
Jessica - who started her film career aged 13 before getting her big break appearing on the remake of TV series 'Flipper' in 1995 - has daughters Honor, five, and Haven, two, with husband Cash Warren, which she says has changed her attitude to her diet and made her stop trying to be "perfect", as she wants to set a good example for her children.
She said: "As I've gotten older and after I became a mom, it became more of a priority to be healthy for the right reasons. It's more important to have a balanced approach instead of trying to be perfect."

Lea Michele "cried hysterically" the first time she met Barbra Streisand.
The 'Glee' star is a huge fan of the iconic vocalist, and was honoured when she finally got to perform for her in January 2011 at a MusiCares Benefit show. Although she wasn't introduced to her then, they had a chance meeting at the Grammy awards a few nights later.
Lea writes in her autobiography, 'Brunette Ambition': "I left The Grammys early, in order to avoid the post-event valet rush, and was standing there in the quiet before the storm waiting for my car when I felt a tap on my shoulder. I turned around, and it was Barbra. And she said, 'I just wanted to say thank you for introducing me to your generation.' And I gave her a big hug, and told her that I thought she was amazing, and she looked at me and asked, 'Did I sound good tonight?' And I said, 'You were incredible.' And that was it. The minute she walked away, I started to cry hysterically. Sometimes you meet your idols and they don't live up to your expectations, but that moment was one of the best in my life."
Lea got another chance to meet her idol last year after she and co-star Chris Colfer went to see her in concert, but now regrets passing it up.
She explained: "It was a gorgeous night to sit under the stars and listen to Barbra: She sounded so beautiful and seemed so relaxed... At the end of the concert Chris wanted us to go backstage to say hi, but I didn't want to mar my perfect moment of meeting Barbra at The Grammys... so I chickened out.
"A few weeks later, I checked my mail and Barbra had sent me a copy of that night's programme with a note on it that said: 'Thank you for coming to my show, I wish you would have come backstage, I would have liked to have given you a hug.' And then I really died."

A potential burglar has been arrested after allegedly trying to break into George Clooney's Italian villa.
A 29-year-old Romanian man had sneaked onto 'The Monuments Men's property in Lake Como and stolen a bottle of wine from an alcove in the garden.
He was then spotted as he tried to force his way into the house by a member of staff who called the Carabinieri, the Italian national military police, who also deal with civil matters.
According to the Daily Telegraph newspaper, the man threatened the police with the bottle, but was overpowered and taken to a local station and charged with theft.
George, 52, was not at home at the time of the incident.
The actor is currently planning a "dream wedding" for his British lawyer fiancee Amal Alamuddin, which he is considering hosting either at the Lake Como property or Cabo San Lucas in Mexico.
Afterward, he is thought to be relocating to London so she can continue her work as a barrister at the Doughty Street Chambers.
Speaking of their marriage plans, a source said: "He'd marry her today if he could, but he wants to give her a dream wedding. It is her first, and he wants it to be his last!"
The brunette beauty's conservative Lebanese parents are also eager for the couple to make their union legal.
The insider said: "[They] are old-fashioned when it comes to these things. They expect a short engagement. George would do whatever makes her happy."
