Here's the link for the interview with director Tom Shankland, where he mentions Joe's accident.
https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpreview.redd.it%2Fl259o5ng7en91.jpg%3Fwidth%3D750%26format%3Dpjpg%26auto%3Dwebp%26s%3D34d729ecb522a1c3acc651072272f2b770ae7cf2
It's not mentioned anywhere else and, on twitter, someone asked him during the autos what happened and he supposedly said it was during cooking (tweet has been deleted, unfortunately) but, later on, during a panel, he refused to answer, prompting the thought that it was something embarrassing and not to do with cooking.
And it was the middle finger, you can on Make Up, as well, that he has bandage around it. Here's a link with a pic of it.

Sul set del Gattopardo, 'ma non è il remake del film'
Le scene in fase di ripresa sono quelle del Liberation Ball e dell’arrivo delle carrozze a Palazzo Biscari a Catania. La domanda a Tom Shankland, regista della serie Netflix Il gattopardo, kolossal prodotto da Indiana Production e Moonage Pictures e composto da sei episodi in lavorazione, arriva a tarda sera, senza mezzi termini, dopo una delle tante giornate di ciak, stop, inquadrature a campo…

The Serpent is a British series first broadcast by BBC One and Netflix on January 1, 2021. The series, which consists average of 1 hour-long 8 episodes, is in the genre of crime and drama. One of the directors of the series is Tom Shankland, whom we are familiar with from films such as Broken Mirror, No Night Is Too Long, WAZ, and The Children. The script was written by Richard Warlow and Toby Finlay. The original content of BBC One, The Serpent, is produced by Stephan Smallwood and distributed by Mammoth Screen. The series was shot in Bangkok and London. The series cast includes names such as Tahar Rahim, Jenna Coleman, Ellie Bamber, Billy Howle, Tim McInnerny, Amesh Edireweera, İlker Kaleli, and Chicha Amatayakul. The production had a score of 7.6 on IMDb with the votes of 35 thousand people. Even the series trailer was watched by hundreds of thousands of people when it was first published. No wonder this enthusiastic fan base is wondering if The Serpent season 2 will be out soon. Here is all we know…1 What is the Plotline of The Serpent?2 Will there be a Second Season of The Serpent?3 Who is The Serpent’s Charles Sobhraj in Real Life?What is the Plotline of The Serpent?The picture from @Netflix / YouTube – Official TrailerBased on true events, The Serpent tells the story of a serial killer who chases after Western tourists in Southeast Asia in the 1970s. Charles Sobhraj is responsible for the murders of 20 wanderers traveling to various countries in Southeast Asia. We begin the series in 1975 in Bangkok, the capital of Thailand. Herman Knippenberg, a young diplomat, working in the country on behalf of the Netherlands, begins to search for a couple who disappeared with the support of his wife Angela and who was last seen in the apartment where diamond merchant Charles Sobhraj lived. Throughout the show, we follow the story of Sobhraj, who is accused of hunting and killing young female travelers. Sobhraj, who was the prime suspect in the unsolved murders of young western tourists on the ‘Hippie Road’ of India, Thailand, and Nepal in 1975 and 1976, manipulated and used them in his own crimes by gaining their trust in various ways, constantly traveling with fake passports, especially in the diamond roguery. Being a man who commits fraud in many ways, he had been one of Interpol’s most wanted men with arrest warrants on three different continents. Diplomat Knippenberg’s search on Sobhraj immerses him in a protracted mess that will lead to multiple countries and deaths.Will there be a Second Season of The Serpent?Although Netflix normally approves its hit productions for new seasons, the first season of The Serpent ends by announcing that Sobhraj is currently on the service, showing that the whole story was covered in the first iteration. Since the series is based on a true story and we are almost at the end of Charles Sobhraj’s story, it is thought that the show won’t receive a second season’s approval. It looks like we have come to the end of The Serpent unless Sobhraj escapes again. The show could become an anthology series and focus on another killer with a similar story, but that seems unlikely at the moment. The most likely scenario would be to turn the series into a Netflix documentary and tell the details that the story left unanswered. The release of this documentary also won’t happen before 2023, given the time it takes to collect data, interview, and adjusting agreements.At the moment, there are no plans for The Serpent Season 2 by Netflix or BBC One, and it doesn’t look like a new episode will arrive in 2021. Stay tuned for new developments about the show and much more.Who is The Serpent’s Charles Sobhraj in Real Life?Charles Sobhraj is a French burglar, fraud, and serial killer. At least 10 of the murders are believed to have been committed in Thailand, Nepal, and India. Many of his victims were young tourists traveling the world with limited money. Why Charles Sobhraj targeted or hated hippies have not been given a clear answer. Although he was later caught, he always charged interviews about his life and tacitly answered questions about the murders. It was claimed that he received 5 million dollars from an interview. It is thought that he made a fortune thanks to his bad reputation. In the book published by Richard Neville and Julie Clarke in 1979, he made statements that brag about the murders he committed. However, he said he would deny these confessions if he went to court. One of his expressions stated that he had never killed good people. Charles Sobhraj has not been tried for many of the crimes he is thought to have committed in his lifetime.

Every time I read Les Misérables or its manga adaptation by Takahiro Arai (which is, without hyperbole, a masterpiece and the BEST, most faithful and most moving Les Mis adaptation that I know of) I am just SEETHING that the BBC series was allowed to exist. Even Shoujo Cosette (2007) is closer to the spirit of the books, and Javert and Gavroche and the little brothers survive Shoujo Cosette.
Like, oh, the musical is *bad* and we need to "free the legacy of the book from it" and "finally make a faithful adaptation"? Tom Shankland, you pretentious, arrogant, self-deluded wanker. Kiss my French copy of the book as it flies into your stupid head, because a Japanese man understood it a million times better than you who's from one our closest neighbor countries.
Seriously, what were you thinking making Javert black? - that it checked out because he was kind of a social outcast? You wanker. The whole point of his character was that his 'otherness' couldn't be seen. His origins - being in born in prison to vagrants - disgusted him because they tainted him, because he hated to be associated with filth and crime - not because he was visibly 'different'. If you make him black in 19th century France you make it impossible for him to become that anonymous cog in the machine of justice he prides himself in being, AND you superficially equate the alienation he would have suffered as a black man with his book-canon SELF-alienation, where he essentially considers himself a dog and has no ambition of rising in status, but finds his self-worth in being a well trained, efficient hound instead of the rabble. How could the two experiences POSSIBLY be similar? What even was your thought process? ‘Oh, this character has no friends and we need more diversity, let’s slap some melanin onto him?’ If anything Javert can be read as Romani, so congrats on erasing that because being Romani and being black still wouldn’t be remotely the same experience, and it’s still important thematically that he passes as white.
And also, making Javert attracted to that hot, sexy, sexy Jean Valjean body? You imbecile. Javert takes pride in the fact that he has no moral flaws or 'twisted desires' to speak of - which is how he would have perceived any unlawful attraction towards anyone, be it a married woman, a man, or, and especially, a convict - and the whole thing is that he is right about that: he doesn't desire. (In fact, he and Jean can both easily be read as asexual.) Javert is not some repressed Catholic-guilt-ridden hypocrite à la Claude Frollo, he is utterly passionless except for the pursuit of justice, and he doesn't have *anything* other than his hatred of crime and criminals lurking beneath his stone cold exterior. That's his whole problem! He can't conceive of living for anything other than the law (so again in relation to my previous point: he hated his origins because his parents were criminals - rooting his identity issues in race first and foremost is huh maybe not the best choice) to the point than when his worldview is turned upside down and he can’t rely on the law as his absolute moral guide, he kills himself.
The POINT of Javert's dynamic with Jean Valjean is that it's not personal to him - even though countless adaptations have gotten that one wrong - it's about The Law. He's not obsessed with Jean Valjean, they just happen to cross paths serendipitously over and over - he's obsessed with The Law. Why would you make him attracted to Jean?!
ALSO, yeah, faithfulness to the book, that’s why you made Fantine a brunette and Cosette a blonde - exactly like in the 2012 musical movie you hate so much - WHEN IT’S THE OPPOSITE IN THE BOOK. You gigantic, self-sufficient prick.
AND FINALLY because I can't bear to think about this travesty any longer: making Jean Valjean angry 24/7. Why. What. Have you read the book at all. You butchered the Petit Gervais scene and that alone would take too long to explain, but how could you DARE make Jean a violent man and borderline abusive father when he hasn’t been angry since THE VERY BEGINNING OF THE STORY. Seriously, Jean doesn’t act out of anger at all after his encounter with Bishop Myriel, not even with the Thénardiers, that’s his whole character!!! How could you Dumbledore-“he said calmly” his scene where he endures torture for Cosette’s sake - when he is *supremely calm* the book and you make him act like an animal.
I hate that this thing exists. I hate it so bad. Jean felt SO GUILTY for entertaining for half a minute the hope that Marius would die, and you made it look like he regretted dragging him through the sewers. Wtf. Oh yeah, and possessiveness? From the guy who IMMEDIATELY lets the most precious person in his life go the second he knows she’ll be fine without him, because he feels like he doesn’t deserve her and should under no circumstances tarnish her happiness with his dark past?? WHAT?!
Jean Valjean is the kindest, most loving, most gentle, most compassionate shining beacon of goodness of a character ever written, who was able to completely turn away from his rage and bitterness and love his fellow man so much that he gives money to people trying to rob him, and spares the lives of his worst enemies, and throws his life away to save one innocent, and dedicates his whole being to a girl he owes nothing to, and you wrote him as an angry, possessive monster. F*ck.
Congrats on making the Thénardiers mixed race, btw, love how going for race-blind casting because you wanted forced diversity resulted in you perpetuating awful racial stereotypes. That’s the kind of representation we needed, the money-hungry, thieving, child-abusing f*cking Thénardiers. Like it makes any sense whatsoever. (HEY, REMEMBER THAT THENARDIER - THE GUY YOU CAST AS A PAKISTANI-KENYAN MAN - BECAME A SLAVE-TRADER IN THE BOOKS, YOU IDIOT?)
Who even authorized any of this 😭😭
I can forgive The Musketeers, because the show didn’t even attempt to pretend for one second that it was going to follow the books, and it’s entertaining enough to make up for it, but BBC shouldn’t be allowed to touch French IP ever again after this pretentious self-aggrandizing trashfire.
