Video: Diddy joins Downton Abbey in spoof video In Downton Diddy, a video created by comedy website Funny or Die, Diddy explains that, as a proud Downton fan, he's been involved in the hit ITV period drama since the beginning: and he has the scenes to prove it. Diddy claims to play the role of Lord Wolcott, the new owner of Downton Abbey, and appears in key scenes from the previous series, including Matthew Crawley's first steps after his accident and Mr Bates's guilty verdict for the murder of his wife. Diddy's Lord Wolcott is a ladies' man, who rejects under-butler Thomas Barrow's advances and enjoys the "fancy cake" on offer at Downton dinners. He's not, however, a natural at cricket and shocks the guests at an Edwardian version of Diddy's annual celebrity-filled White Party with his outlandish behaviour. There's even a shocking revelation in store about Wolcott's true identity.
