I was shocked to know that he really does talk that way in that oh so proper English accent. He went to acting school. In between takes he always takes his jacket and boots off and wears Nike tennis shoes. His hair looks so real even in person and is indeed a wig. I think the front bangs part is his own but the pony tail is a prop. most of the show is filmed on a sound stage in Wilmington North Carolina.Caves and More caves police department the office behind ther wall. it is just amazing.
