Jason Watkins, the actor who plays climate scammer Phil Jones in @BBC's "The Trick," looks amazingly like Charles Dawson, creator of the Piltdown Man hoax.

Put a mustache on Watkins and he’s a dead ringer for “brilliant amateur archaeologist” Dawson.
I wrote to @BBC to suggest that they make “The Trick” docudrama the first in a series. I suggested that the next one be about Charles Dawson and the Piltdown Man hoax. They could call it, "The Skull."
The BBC did not reply, so I made it a public letter.

@BBC Charles Dawson, you'll probably recall, was the amateur archaeologist who spliced bone fragments from dissimilar skeletons to create the illusion of the “missing link” — and miseducate two generations of students.

@BBC The role of Dawson is a natural one for Watkins, after playing the UEA CRU climate scientist, Phil Jones, who spliced fragments from dissimilar graphs to create the illusion of the “hockey stick” temperature graph.

Only problem might be that @Jason__Watkins isn't used to playing villains, like Phil Jones & Charles Dawson.
