Co-incidentally, the actor has always looked too old to be Gail's son but now, after his accident, he looks positively ancient. The change in his appearance is deliberate in order to show the extent of his suffering. No longer will he be Gail's little angel but a grown man who might just tell his mother where Humpty Dumptynoreply@blogger.com
