TV actor Robert James-Collier says he will be donning a wig worth 4,000 pounds ($6,200) for the fourth season of hit TV drama "Downton Abbey".

"It's the king of wigs. It cost about 4,000 pounds. As wigs go, it's beautiful. And it means if I ever go bald, I can stick the wig on so I'll always have work," femalefirst.co.uk quoted Collier as saying.

The 36-year-old, who is playing a "crazy psychotic drug dealer" in the TV series, said he is taking help of stylists to recreate slicked-back look for his character of Thomas Barrow.

Created by Julian Fellowes and co-produced by Carnival Films and Masterpiece, the TV show's production began earlier this year and is due to go on air in Britain this autumn.
