He looked quite unfamiliar in this interview, I had to look twice. A combo of the grey hair and brown eyes, I think. :D

I think it was more where they built up his jaw line and gave him jowls! I can normally spot Jason a mile away - but if he were made up like this - I doubt I could spot him.

I have seen trailers for the new network and in a few of them, actors who have projects on the new network are in them. Does anyone know if Jason has filmed one?.

I don't know... Shouldn't it have premiered already, according to the plan? Maybe it's been deleayed. :scratch

No sign on the ITV X platform. I wonder if they are still editing it. I wonder if it will appear around September as it seemed to be filmed very late last year.

IMDB claims it's still in post-production. It should be released this year, but there's no fixed date.

Thanks for those pics. It's interesting to see the make-up job that has been done to make Jason look like Cary Grant.

They did his chin and added brown contact lenses. Quite nice characterisation. There was also few different hairstyles tested to find the best fitting ones. I can't wait the final result. 😍
