"Downton Abbey" creator Julian Fellowes has seen Diddy's Funny or Die video and said he thought it was fabulous. "I absolutely adored it, but I just couldn’t see how he could have done it," the creator told The Telegraph.

As for an actual part for Diddy on "Downton Abbey," Fellowes said, "Never say never ... though I imagine he'd steal the scene, even if it was a small part."

Season 4 of "Downton Abbey" will be filled with new faces.
