The streaming service’s latest release only landed on New Year’s Day, but it’s already earned the number one spot. While there’s no doubt this is largely due to the gripping storytelling, it might also be because of the many surprise cameos. As well as I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here campmates GK Barry and Matt Willis appearing in the series, legendary British actor, Marc Warren also has a starring role – although you may struggle to recognise him from gaunt look at first.
Led by Slow Horses actor Rosalind Eleazar, 36, the six-parter, which was released yesterday, follows her mind-bending investigation sparked after her ex-fiancé, who ghosted her, resurfaces on a dating app. With many twists and turns, one being the murder of her father, Marc, 57, plays the convicted felon who confesses to the killing.

Showing up only for a brief few minutes, the actor – most well-known for his roles in Mad Dogs, Hustle and Van Der Valk – had a completely different look, swapping his usual blonde locks for a shaved head, pale skin and gaunt, sunken cheeks. This change in appearance was due to his character’s storyline, which saw him cooped up in a prison hospital, dying from cancer.
