7 days of Dream Team debuts brings us to number 3: Wes Kingsley (@razadoti). Tough crowd for Wes as he turns up, just as the team find out about the missing plane in Season 3. Michael Melia as Jerry Block was his usual brilliant self thoughoit and the multiple layers of storyline in this episode culminates with Wes deciding to sign. Such a shame (for fans of the show) when Raz left the show a year later after Ridley Scott came calling... 👀
