To his friend’s reveal, Heughan said that he is not sure how he would have felt working with him in that particular series. He said this considering the character’s torture and sexual abuse of Jamie. 

He said that it would have been tricky. He added that Tom Ellis could easily fit in Frank Randall’s role because he is charming and lovable and, on the other hand, Black Jack’s part is just the opposite of this. He concluded that Tobias has done an amazing job, but you would have done it in quite a different way.
