He's quickly swarmed by yobs on bikes but is ready and waiting with a bat. Vinnie plays Geoff Seacombe, gamekeeper of Eddie Halstead's estate in the crime caper – with Theo James returning as Eddie for the second series of the Netflix smash-hit.

The pair were seen shooting action-packed scenes alongside producer Guy Ritchie, teasing fans with what's to come in the next instalment of the gangster drama. The Gentlemen is a spin-off of the Ritchie-directed 2019 film of the same name. It starred Charlie Hunnam, Matthew McConaughey, Hugh Grant and Colin Farrell. The TV show, which also features Skins and Pirates of the Caribbean actress Kaya Scodelario, follows James' Eddie after he inherits his family's estate only to discover that it's home to an enormous weed empire, dragging him into the criminal underworld.
