Right now, I'm doing research on the Freightmaster for an FSX video of that aircraft, called "Life of a Freightmaster". I just learned this year that there was a freighter version of the 808, albeit I knew there was a Parcelforce Viscount, not the variant name. Interesting find.
So for now, here's this pic. I'll add more later.

Re: Freightmaster
I think it was BAF who christened their only V.808 "Freightmaster". Scottish Aviation converted three for Aer Lingus with the double forward cargo doors. Later BAF stripped down V.806 G -AOYJ, which had by then become G-BLOA, and added Freightmaster titles, but the original forward door remained unaltered.

Re: Freightmaster
...Well, I'll consider DK the focus of my Freightmaster project. The one that belly landed at Belfast in '96. But this also means that I'll be doing a Southern International repaint, as well as a later ABC livery, with the abbreviation on the fuselage instead of the full name. Someone already did a Parcelforce repaint, but I'll be changing the rego just for the film. Thanks for the info anyways.
