Matt Smith’s hair got tousled by the wind on Tuesday as he filmed The Death Of Bunny Munro at Saltdean Lido in Brighton.
The former Doctor Who star, 41, sported a navy shirt with the first few buttons undone, and matching trousers.
He squinted against the sun as he filmed scenes for the upcoming black comedy right beside the water.
The Death Of Bunny Munro follows a misogynistic middle-aged salesman as he takes his son on a road trip around after his wife’s suicide – at the same time as a serial-killer is inhabiting the area.
As Bunny bounces from one sales pitch to the next, trying to seduce any woman he meets, Bunny Junior tries to talk to the ghost of his mother and distract himself from the realisation his father’s life is crumbling around him.

‘Clerkenwell Films and Sky feels like the perfect home to make such a bold story and Pete has delivered such wonderful scripts, both funny and heart breaking in equal measure.
