Matt Leblanc stars in “Episodes”
January 10th, 2011 - 7:03 pm ICT by Aishwarya BhattLos Angeles, Jan 10 (THAINDIAN NEWS) Matt LeBlanc is returning to TV in Britain and a co-star on the new show, Stephen Mangan said the move is a “brave choice”.
This is the first time in five years that LeBlanc is appearing on British TV screens. He will be playing a role in the show, “Episodes”. The show will be airing on Britain on BBC Two.
The show will be about the crew’s quest to recreate a British TV show in the United States. Everything seemed to be going on well until the executive director of the show decided to replace the lead character. That is what things went wrong.
LeBlanc explained that, “It was very similar - ‘You’ve done a hit show in the UK, we love you, we want you, come and do your thing just the way you do it’. And you get over there and they want you to do it the way they do it.”
Mangan told reporters that he believes that the success of LeBlanc in the United Kingdom may not be the same in the United States.
The show will start airing in Britain on BBC Two from Monday at 22:00 GMT.
