If You're A Serious Actor, It's When

I've Read About Eight Or Ten Of The Original Novels, And One Of Them Is Where Maigret's In Bed For The Entire Story! His Wife Is Running Around And Solving The Case!

I Have Always Worried About Things More Than I Should.

In The Modern Media Age We Are Rarely Surprised By What We See. Whether It's On Television Or Film Or In The Theatre, Everything Is So Advertised, So Trailed, That Most Entertainment Is Merely What You Thought It Was Going To Be Like.

What Directors Of Television Drama Constantly Tell You Is 'don't Act It. Don't Try. Don't Emphasise That Word'. Whereas With Someone Like Blackadder, Even Though He's A Relatively Low Key Character In A Way, He Did Relish The Lines That He Had And The Words That He Was Given, With A Lot Of Inflection.

I'm More Critical Of The Films I Make Than Anyone Else.
