If this is set to air in January 2015, it has to be already filmed, isn't it? Other way the post -production might be quite cheap....

I was wondering too when they are going to film this BBC production, I don´t think it´s filmed already. Martin did Richard III in the last 3 months, had started the rehearsal for R3 in may and I think he filmed Fargo from last october until march this year, so I don´t know when he would have done this.

But I think it´s a great role for him because he always seems so interested in history and is probably glad he can contribute to the Holocaust memorial day.

Oh wow yeah, that's kind of strange. Unless he's in it with a beard and they've been secretly filming during the day when he's not acting as Richard.

Seriously though, I'm pretty sure the newspapers were announcing it like he'd only just been cast kind of thing, so maybe they really are filming it now and in the next month, then if it's finished by early November, they'd still have two months for post production. It's only a one off, right? Not a series or anything. So, won't take too long.

The film sounds like it will offer an interesting angle on the trial.

Oh, i thought he is supoosed to do in october-november the American Hangman film. In december he should promote The Hobbit, i don't think that he won't do it for the last film of the trilogy.

Sounds very interesting. WWII history has always fascinated me.

It looks like Martin is in Lithuania right now filming The Eichmann Show, there have been pictures on Facebook from fans who met him in a piano bar.
