Late Night with Jimmy Fallon has spoofed the hit series Downton Abbey.
Dubbed as Downton Sixbey, the skit shows 'Upstairs and Downstairs' working together to keep the talkshow running.
The Upstairs included Fallon as Lord Grantham, Brooke Shields as his American wife Lady Cora and Fred Armisen as the middle daughter Lady Hedith.
Meanwhile, the Downstairs featured Late Night staff members - featuring announcer Steve Higgins as both Mr Carson and Mr Bates - who are tasked to come up with another Kim Kardashian joke.
The band's drummer Questlove of The Roots makes a quick appearance as Cousin Matthew, who in the original series is set up to marry Lord Grantham's eldest daughter Lady Mary.
Late Night airs weeknights at 12.35am ET on NBC. Downton Abbey will return for a third season later this year.
Watch the Downton Sixbey skit below:
