Downton Abbey is officially coming to an end with its sixth season. If that isn't enough to break your heart, the cast and crew have documented the show's final days in a way their characters never could -- a hashtag.

Social media may not have been available for the Crawleys, but thankfully, their modern-day equivalents can share behind-the-scenes photos from the set of the final season via #LastDaysofDownton.

You might hate seeing them go, but what a way to watch them leave.

No one could beat Lady Mary herself in the social media game, though: Michelle Dockery's tributes to the show that launched her to stardom are just as classy as you'd expect from Downton's resident "uppity minx."

The show may have wrapped yesterday, but you can stay in denial for just a little longer -- while Downton Abbey comes to a close in the UK on ITV this Christmas Day, the final season doesn't premiere in the U.S. until January 3, 2016.
