From being bullied to falling in love, Mark Critch mines the past for ‘Son of a Critch’ S2TORONTO — When Mark Critch stepson the set of “Son of a Critch,” wearing his dad’s signature aviator framesand a 1980s-styled fully buttoned suit and tie, it's a chance for the 48-year-old actor to reminisce about his upbringing. Also returning is Malcolm McDowell as his grandfather Patrick (Pop) Critch, and Claire Rankin as his mother, Mary, among others. “I’m surprised that different people relate to me even if they didn’t grow up in Newfoundland in the 1980s,” says Critch. Critch says that he initially had no clue whether or not the show would resonate with audiences. “We were always asking each other for ideas through the process and I think that’s extraordinary,” says Rankin.
