Check out ITV1 tonight at 9pm for the shocking sight of Russell Brand as a freaky weirdo criminal in the serial-killer thriller series Cold Blood.
And here's his first appearance in the episode so you can see for yourselves what he's like. Yes, just when we were starting to wonder if Russ could find any kind of TV showcase for his undeniable talents apart from Big Brother's Big Mouth, he only goes and proves he can act.
Brand is the best thing about tonight's drama, which also features some unpleasant shots of a semi-naked Matthew Kelly.
