Lewis star Laurence is turning into De Gaulle

HIS strawberry-blond hair is just one of many attributes shared by his family of famous actors, including cousins Emilia and Freddie Fox, but Yorkshire-born thespian Laurence, left, has decided to break away from his roots. Literally.

Sharing this selfie online, the 37-yearold is unrecognisable as he reveals his newly darkened hair and moustache. Sitting in the back of a car with a pair of dark glasses, he notes: ‘The artist formerly known as Laurence Fox.’ However the new look is only temporary, as it is for a forthcoming theatre role in which Fox plays Charles de Gaulle, right, the 20th-century French military hero.

perhaps he can share grooming tips with actress wife Billie piper, who admits to using a special cream to keep her own ’tache under control.
