Especially as the pilot wasn’t great. If it had been made by the BBC, they would have pulled the plug. But Sky and HBO nursed it and we began to be aware that we were dealing with a pretty class act. I still had no idea that it would become this charming monster.” the ITV serial-killer miniseries "Fallen Angel" (2007); and, in 2010, one of the Sky1's lavishly-produced adaptations of Terry Pratchett's Discworld tales, "Going Postal."

As a teenager, he developed a stammer and couldn’t have gone on stage even if his school had entertained such frippery; he couldn’t even talk to girls. “It’s horrible. And I could never be seen to be a stammerer. I’d have to make up the most complicated sentences to get round the words I couldn’t manage. When it came to girlfriend time, it was hell. All the things I wanted to say, I couldn’t say. You could see their eyes glazing over during my terribly long sentences.”

Years later, I was given a medal that he’d got for elocution at some festival in Wales. My mother used to speak very fondly of him – it must have been awful for my poor stepfather, harping on about him all the time.”
