Dame Maggie Smith has no plans to leave 'Downton Abbey'.
The 79-year-old actress - who plays the Dowager Countess of Grantham, Violet Crawley - is still enjoying her role as the Crawley family matriarch and will remain part of the period drama for the foreseeable future.
Executive producer Gareth Neame said: "Maggie Smith will be in the show as long as she wants to do it. She'll be back this coming season. She's a huge part of the show, and I think she enjoys doing it.
"I think it's remarkable for someone who's had such a long and illustrious career to be still delivering work of this calibre. One has also really got to make reference to the remarkable combination of [writer-and-creator] Julian Fellowes and Maggie Smith. She's almost like a muse to him."
The producer also teased the addition of Richard E. Grant to the show's cast in series five, playing Downton houseguest Simon Bricker.
He told The Hollywood Reporter: "The show has always been big about the guests coming in, though we don't really do stunt casting. Although the bedrock of the show is this cast of hugely loved characters, it's how they interact with the guests that I think makes every season feel fresh. Richard [E. Grant] and Anna [Chancellor] are two very fun additions."

'Strictly Come Dancing' could be by the BBC in the next five years, according to the corporation's former director of communications.
The celebrity ballroom dancing competition could be pulled along with 'Top Gear' and 'The One Show' in the coming years and BBC executives are reportedly hunting for replacements.
Former BBC director of communications, Ed Williams said: "I think there's a series of very popular formats which over the next five to 10 years will reach the end of their natural lives, such as 'Strictly Come Dancing', 'The Apprentice', 'Dragons' Den', 'Top Gear' and 'The One Show'."
The sensational claims made in Ed's new book, 'Is the BBC in Crisis?', also suggest staff are struggling to come up with fresh ideas and TV's brightest producers are put off working for the institution due its low wages.
Ed added: "What I think is particularly challenging for the BBC is how can they make the case to get the best creative people at the BBC coming up with these ideas when, actually, if you've got a great idea, why take it to the BBC?"
The BBC has seemingly reached a standstill in Saturday night entertainment formats since 'Strictly Come Dancing' launched in 2004.
Meanwhile, independently produced talent show 'The Voice' has proved a hit with viewers this year but is costly for the BBC to air.

The producers of 'The Only Way is Essex' have trademarked the cast's signature catchphrases.
Lime Pictures is acquiring full rights to what is said on the hit ITV2 reality show, which means stars including Sam Faiers and Gemma Collins will need to pay the production company a share of profits from entrepreneurial efforts utilising their favourite phrases.
'TOWIE' has spawned lots of popular sayings such as 'reem', 'well jel' and 'vajazzle'.
A source told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "The cast of 'TOWIE' are a canny bunch and they know that when they coin a marketable catchphrase that they can really make some money out of it."
Among the stars affected will be former cast member Joey Essex and his Fusey fashion brand.
The insider added: "Joey created a shop from his range and sells T-shirts, fragrances and hair products named after phrases he coined on the show. The producers already take 15 per cent of the cast's earnings, but this would mean even their company's earnings would be eligible - even after they leave the show."
However, it's thought 'TOWIE' catchphrases may not be as popular as they once were as cast members attempt to emulate the success of words like 'reem'.
The source claimed: "Since the odder words, like Joey's 'reem', took off in popularity, a lot of the cast seem to have been using more of their own distinctive words. The potential income could be considerably less lucrative from now on."
A spokesperson for Lime Pictures commented: "Lime Pictures will always endeavour to protect the 'TOWIE' brand."

Chloe Sims wants to find love on 'The Only Way Is Essex' this year.
The single mother - who has eight-year-old daughter Madison with a mystery ex-boyfriend - is hopeful she could meet Mr. Right on the ITV2 reality show's 11th series, although she is nervous about the idea of having a relationship play out on camera.
She told the Daily Star newspaper: "There's no man on the scene at the moment but I'm working on it! I don't know whether there will be any love action in this series.
"But I am single and I would love to be in a new relationship, because they're the best ones. So we'll just have to see what happens. I really don't know at the moment.
"It would be hard to have a relationship on the show and I think that scares people a bit. Once a love affair goes on 'TOWIE', it seems it always ends in tears. But for me, I've never had a boyfriend on the show so I might give it a go."
The busty brunette also revealed she was missing her cousin Joey Essex, who quit the show last year to pursue other TV projects, and insists the door is always open for him to return.
Chloe sighed: "It's weird not having him there. Tom Pearce talks like him sometimes so it's like I keep hearing him when he's not there.
"But he's gone on to do other things so I'm happy for him. I think the door will always be open for him - there wouldn't be a problem if he wanted to come back.
"But a change for him is good. He's still young and he can do lots of other things."

Keith Lemon has joked he bans guests he doesn't like from 'Celebrity Juice'.
The TV comic, played by Leigh Francis, says he doesn't book the guests on the show but tries to use his influence as the panel show's presenter to avoid booking stars he isn't a fan of.
In a conversation with Rizzle Kicks for the new 'Nando's Grills' YouTube series, he said: "If it's someone horrible I say, 'Don't get them on!' I go, 'I don't want to do that, I don't want to do that. Tell them I don't want to do that.'
"Then I go [to the star], 'I'd love to do it but they won't let me.' "
Meanwhile, Rizzle Kicks stars Jordan Stephens and Harley Alexander-Sule revealed they were huge fans of the 'Celebrity Big Brother' love triangle - between Blue singer Lee Ryan, Jasmine Waltz and Casey Batchelor - which gripped the nation last month.
Jordan gushed: "That was the funniest s**t ever. The best part about that is when Jasmine came back and Lee would just deny it. Lee was just denying it ... she was like, 'I just saw you!' That was the most amazing denial I've ever seen on 'Big Brother'."

Sam Faiers has been in touch with ex-fiancé Joey Essex after being diagnosed with Crohn's disease.
The 23-year-old beauty learned she had the inflammatory bowel disease last week and she has revealed the one "lovely effect" of the illness is that it has helped get her back on speaking terms with her former partner.
She told Now magazine: "That's actually been a lovely effect of all the bad things that have happened. Joey and I haven't spoken or seen each other for months - the last time I saw him was at Lewis [Bloor]'s birthday last November.
"He sent me a text saying he was worried about me. I texted him back, and I'm just glad there's been that contact because he was such a big part of my life and it's nice we can be friends again."
Joey hasn't been the only one who has been worried about 'The Only Way is Essex' star as Sam's mother Suzanne and sister Billie have been in "bits".
Sam added: "My mum was so worried and Billie kept crying. When I was diagnosed, she was sobbing. I've been the one saying, 'It'll be OK.' They've cried much more than me. I think I've stayed strong because I hate them being so upset. It's been hard for them to see me so thin."

Kate Garraway isn't sure about doing more reality TV.
The 'Daybreak' presenter - who was announced as one of the new presenters on Smooth Radio yesterday (24.02.14) - is ruling out appearances on ITV diving show 'Splash!' and Channel 4's Winter Olympics-themed 'The Jump' following her stint on 'Strictly Come Dancing' in 2007.
Speaking to BANG Showbiz at the launch of the new Smooth Radio in London, she said: "I'm not sure really. When you look at some of the ones that have been on recently ... oh, 'Splash!' looks like agony, doesn't it?
"And 'The Jump' - oh my goodness, that looks so hard.
"I think I got into enough trouble in 'Strictly' with bits of me getting broken and injured so I think I should stay away from some of those shows."
The 48-year-old TV star has joined Smooth Radio's new star-studded line-up along with 'Loose Women' star Myleene Klass and former 'Holby City' actress Tina Hobley.
Kate is looking forward to hosting her new mid-morning weekday show, which begins on March 3 at 10am.
She said: "I've always been interested in radio and I think it's a brilliant medium. I think it's very free. With radio, there's just you, a mic and some music. It's more intimate."

'The Valleys' girls are fighting over newcomer Jack Watkins.
He may have only been part of the MTV reality series for a matter of minutes but the newest cast member is already ruffling feathers on the hit MTV show.
The 24-year-old stripper is welcomed onto the show during tonight's (25.02.14) series three opener, immediately sparking competition between the girls - Carley Belmonte, Lateysha Grace and Jenna Jonathan - as they vie for his attention.
21-year-old model Lateysha is the first to pounce on newbie Jack, pecking him on the cheek and saying: "One kiss from Teesh, to keep him on the leash."
But her best friend Jenna is quick to step in, saying: "If Teesha's gonna flirt up the new boy, so am I."
Carley, 23, adds: "He's gonna be a naughty addition to the house."
Fortunately for fans of the reality TV show - which is known for its characters' drunken antics and on-screen rows - Jack's trouble-stirring doesn't stop with the girls.
Male castmates Darren Chidgey and twins Anthony and Jason Suminski are noticeably rattled by the appearance of a new hunk and are left reeling with jealousy after the girls shower him with kisses.
Chidgey asks: "Who the hell does this guy think he is?"
The third series of 'The Valleys' airs tonight on MTV at 10pm.

Dara O'Briain worries the BBC's decision to ban all-male panels will lead to females being considered the "token woman".
The 'Mock the Week' host host has hit back at BBC head of television Danny Cohen's recent ban on all-male panels on its comedy shows, insisting it would have been better to make such changes behind the scenes.
He explained: "I wouldn't have announced it, is what I'd say. Because it means [comediennes] Katherine Ryan or Holly Walsh, who've been on millions of times, will suddenly look like the token woman. It would have been better if it had evolved without showing your workings, if you know what I mean.
"Legislating for a token woman isn't much help."
The 42-year-old comic claimed female panellists were already being prioritised by 'Mock the Week's' all-female commissioning editors to ensure diversity on the show.
He said: "We bring through female comics earlier than we do male comics because there is such a tiny pool of female stand-ups. But this makes it even tougher for them."
Dara also claims stand-up comedy naturally tends to draw more male comics than female comics.
He added to Radio Times magazine: "A certain number of women want to go into comedy, and they should be cherished and nurtured, but you're not going to shift the fact that loads more men want to do it.
"It's remarkable that this amount of time is spent debating women on comedy shows rather than, say, 'Question Time'."
