Selleck recalled a funny story about his “regular guy” friend Hillerman: “I would go around London in a cab, and they'd ask, ‘Where's the Brit, John Hillerman, from on your show?’ and I'd tell them he was from Denison, Texas. The Brits are always good at spotting funny British accents in shows, and they all thought John was British.”
