Hawes directed the first two episodes of the program's upcoming season and last week he hit the editing room to piece together footage from September. Editing for the premiere finished on Saturday, with edits for Episode 2 beginning on Sunday.

Hawes had voiced reservations about the editing room on Twitter last week, where he discussed a number of vivid fears.
The cutting room - the place where a director watches through his fingers for all the wrong reasons... — James Hawes (@JamesEHawes) October 30, 2014

Hawes seems to have settled into Episode 2, however, with things moving smooth. The show's third episode is currently being filmed in Dublin, with Damon Thomas helming production, which makeup designer and key prosthetic makeup artist Sarita Allison claims is going very well.
