When he arrives during the bazaar he tells Lady Mary that his manservant has been pushed into traffic and killed on a Piccadilly street and nobody saw what happened.

So now, Lady Mary is worried that Bates went to London instead of York and has killed the manservant - and, Mrs. Bates does not know yet that the manservant has been killed. Do not miss next week's episode.

Mr Bates could not have travelled to London and back. Even today it would be darn near impossible. York on the other hand would have been doable.
