Sam Claflin made animated expressions as he filmed his upcoming Prime Video crime thriller Lazarus outside Gordon Ramsay's Manchester restaurant on Thursday.
The frowning Brit, 37, wore a chocolate brown double-breasted coat, identical to the one he wore at the end of March, and carried a white present box.
Underneath his coat, Sam wore a blue T-shirt with darker blue jeans, finishing his look with smart black ankle boots.
The actor had a conversation with his co-star Roisin Gallagher whose role in the series has not yet been announced.
Sam was first spotted in character as Lazarus, nicknamed Laz, in February, when he again filmed in Manchester.

Lazarus' main cast is complete with Bill Nighy and Welsh actress Alexandra Roach who play Laz's doctor father and sister respectively.
The plot follows forensic pathologist Laz who returns home after his father's suicide and begins to have disturbing experiences that can't be explained.
He quickly becomes entangled in a series of cold-case murders as he grapples with the mystery of his father's death and his sister's murder 25 years ago.
Heather Curtis, current series executive for Pan-English scripted SVOD TV at Amazon MGM Studios said: 'Lazarus is a gripping series that captures your attention from the very beginning.
'We're thrilled to unite with Harlan, Danny, Quay Street, and the all-star cast of Sam Claflin, Bill Nighy, and Alexandra Roach to tell this compelling story for our global Prime Video customers.'
The series was created by Harlan Coben and screenwriter Danny Brocklehurst, the men behind Fool Me Once, Netflix's seventh most successful series.
Harlan wrote the book of the same name that Fool Me Once is based on, but Lazarus is an original story.
Danny shared: 'Lazarus is a psychological thriller with an emotional spine. It's about fathers and sons, love and loss. We have attempted to bring our trademark wit and warmth as well as twists galore.
