Background Notes
Images of actors are used in photomanipulations to simulate the "cast" of the series. In these photomanipulations, Joseph Dilan is "played" by Tom Ellis.

Originally Matthew Montgomery was used to portray Joseph Dilan. However in the 2017 character revision this was changed to Tom Ellis as Tom Ellis was a more recognizable figure and also portrayed the character more accurately to the creator's original idea.
