Andrew Davies Quotes

Most actors hate readthroughs - they're exposing themselves before they're ready to, and before they've bonded.

All my mother ever wanted to talk about was what she hated about my father and the times he cheated on her when he was younger. It really irritated me, and I told them they had to sort things out between themselves. Looking back on that, I see that it was really cold of me as a son.
