Gregory Wilmot [3] (circa 1879 – 1916), is a fictional character in the period drama Upstairs, Downstairs.[4] He was portrayed by Keith Barron.
Sergeant Gregory Walter Wilmot is Rose's fiancé. A British sheep farmer living in Australia, he has socialist views. He and Rose meet on a tram in April 1914 when he accidentally sits on a plum cake she is carrying. They soon start courting, and within a week, on 12 April, Rose agrees to go back to Australia with him and become his wife, but hesitant and fearful, she changes her mind at the last minute. A later exchange of letters clears up the alleged rumor that he already had a wife. After the outbreak of war, he becomes a Sergeant in the ANZACs and fights at the Battle of Gallipoli. While on leave in London 1916, he seeks out Rose and they agree to marry when the war ends; later there is a brief mention that they will marry on his next leave in London. However, late in 1916 he is killed by a sniper while returning from patrol and dies instantly and with no pain, although the real truth is never actually known. He leaves Rose £1200 in his will; Rose keeps the money as a talisman of their relationship until losing it in the 1929 stock market crash.
