There is a very recognisable face on screen in new ITV drama Maryland and the appearance of Grease icon Stockard Channing got viewers excited before the show had even begun, with many blown away at finding out her age.
When Maryland was first announced by the broadcaster, it was the name and picture of lead actress Suranne Jones that immediately grabbed the attention, as the Doctor Foster and Vigil actress takes on another high profile TV role, as well as having a big hand in creating the new three part series.
But the Maryland cast list required a second look when Stockard's name appeared on it, 45 years years since she lit up the big screen Rizzo in movie musical smash Grease. In Maryland, which launches on ITV on Monday night, Stockard plays the rather mysterious Cathy, who provides some answers when sisters Becca and Rosaline are told that their mother's body has been found on the Isle of Man.
