Greg Davies has revealed that his highlight from the upcoming second series of The Cleaner was throwing a bucket of water into the face of esteemed actress Zoe Wanamaker.
The BBC comedy - an adaptation of a German show - stars Davies as Wicksy, a man who is responsible for cleaning up the crime scenes after the police have obtained all of their information.
Each episode features different guest stars and series two contains an episode with Wanamaker, whose character looks destined to get into a mop fight with Wicksy.
"I'm sure that it reflects very badly on me on so many levels that chucking a bucket of water in Zoë Wanamaker's face is right up there [as my highlight]," said Davies. "She really didn't seem to mind though!"
Asked to list other memorable moments, he replied: "Did I tell you about chucking water in Zoë Wanamaker's face? I did?
"Okay, well then in no particular order I enjoyed: Making Asim Chaudhry wear a greasy wig and chase me with a gun, having a fight with John Macmillan's clown, having Simon Callow quote poetry at me, being pinned to the floor by a giant man whilst a chain smoking Dame (Harriet Walter) watched on, talking to Alex Lawther via a fox, my friend Roisin (Conaty) attempting to murder me whilst having my faith challenged by Mark Lewis Jones.
"On a more negative note, I was and remain horrified that we couldn't use a stunt man's hands in one close up because they were deemed 'too young and wrinkle-free' for my character. I have beautiful, youthful soft hands and no amount of bullying from a production team will convince me otherwise."
The Cleaner series two begins Friday, March 24 at 9.30pm on BBC One and iPlayer. Watch the trailer below:
