I can get ITVX free, it's just online instead of terrestrial TV. Various sites say Archie will likely be shown on terrestrial ITV1 at some point, but no dates.

Yes, that Twitter photo with the baby (I'm sure it's a doll!) is the same as the Radio Times one.

Archie's mother is played by Harriet Walter, and that's her, so it must be Mrs Leach.

According to what he said to me, he will be traveling through US in December, promoting Archie.
So we can expect a lot of new interviews... and maybe there will be some screenings somewhere, where some of you could go. Stay vigilant, girls :wheee

Thanks for the link, Thunder. That long press pack is full of information about the main people involved in the show, and Archie's life. Lots to read! It's great that Jennifer Grant and Dyan Cannon both really like Jason's portrayal of Cary Grant.

My favourite Cary Grant movie is Penny Serenade. Heartbreaking and shows that Cary had much more range.

A wonderful interview. I did not know Mathew Perry had passed. So sorry to read that.
