Actor Timothy Spall actually lost weight while playing a 50-stone man

Actor Timothy Spall revealed he actually lost weight while playing a 50-stone man.

The 52-year-old said he worked up a sweat wearing the “debilitating” prosthetics for the ITV drama - and even shed a few pounds.

The Harry Potter actor plays the title role in The Fattest Man In Britain, a drama for ITV1 written by The Royle Family’s Caroline Aherne, and The Last Hangman writer Jeff Pope.
