UNNAMED PERIOD SET COMEDY

Apple has sent us first two photos of Noel Fielding in their new period set comedy series in which he plays legendary British highwayman DICK TURPIN. The comedy adventure show follows Fielding as the most famous, but least likely of highway robbers whose success is defined mostly by his charm, showmanship and great hair (which is hilarious in itself given that Noel has the ugliest hair the world has ever seen).
