Richard Gadd got to work on his upcoming BBC drama, Half Man, on Monday after missing out on BAFTA TV Award. 

The creator and executive producer, 36, who will also star in the mini-series was joined on set in Glasgow by actor Jamie Bell, 39. 

Six-episode drama Half Man ‘follows estranged ‘brothers’ Niall (Jamie) and Ruben (Richard) after Ruben shows up unexpectedly at Niall’s wedding,’ according to the BBC. 

As filming commenced in Scotland, Richard was seen on behind the camera wrapped up in a blue padded coat and a baseball cap. 

Jamie got into character wearing a smart wool coat, with a jumper and grey trousers as he walked through the streets. 

The series will take part over 40 years from the 1980s to the present day and cover ‘the good, bad, terrible, funny, angry, and challenging moments along the way,’ the BBC reports.

Richard’s Netflix smash Baby Reindeer won key awards at this year’s BAFTA’s however he lost out on Leading Actor to Lennie James for his role in Mr Loverman. 

Jessica Gunning took home Best Supporting Actress for her role as Martha in Baby Reindeer. 

The Netflix hit, said to be inspired by the real-life experiences of creator Richard Gadd, sees his character Donny being hounded by crazed stalker Martha (Jessica) after he serves her a free cup of tea in the pub where he works.

Yorkshire-born Jessica beat her fellow Baby Reindeer star, trans actress Nava Mau, who played Donny’s girlfriend. 

Speaking on stage on Sunday at she said: ‘Hello, cheeky chops, gosh, thank you Bafta, wow’, before joking that she used to pretend to be a dog in her garden. 

‘I sometimes do this kind of cheesy thing where I look back on the younger me and moments in my life, and I imagine the kind of then me, seeing me now, and think, “little did we know,'” she said.

Jessica said last year, her and Richard were at the ceremony, and ‘little did we know what the year had in store,’ while thanking him for changing ‘her life’.

Elsewhere, Richard is already thinking about his next big collaboration.

The creator and star of the hit series spoke with DailyMail.com about a surprise star he’s interested in working with. 

Although he seemingly has a bevy of British and American stars looking to work with him, Gadd sounded excited about the possibility of teaming up with a major wrestler-turned-film star: Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson.

‘I love The Rock. I’m waiting for his call currently,’ Gadd joked when asked if he’d consider working with the Jumanji star.

‘No, he hasn’t been in touch,’ Gadd clarified, but he wouldn’t mind a call, as he is a ‘big wrestling fan.’

Even though that fact seems to surprise people, he admitted that one of his dreams would be a ‘road trip with me, The Rock, John Cena, and let’s just say Bret Hart.’ 

‘I don’t know what we’ll talk about, but we’ll do it,’ he continued. ‘They’ll be talking and I’ll just be there… ‘
