Yay Max!
Matt Frewer has always been one of those actors, like Bruce Campbell or Charles S. Dutton, whom I've wanted to see succeed more than they have. Is this going to be a regular gig on BBC, or is it just a one-off advert? (blipvert?)
Here's a fun exercise - look around at all the wide-eyed, conspiracy-theory, fringe-wingnut things out inblogland today. Then go back and watch a bunch of old Max Headroom eps. Remember what it was _really like_ (at least, you old farts that were in the prime of life back then) during the old Reagan-Thatcher era, and how insane a lot of things in MH seemed. Then go outside & look around at all the things that show actually predicted & are commonly-accepted today. Then stick a gun in your mouth.
