Squeeze as much enjoyment out of life as possible.

What’s the unending quest that drives you on?’ Question asked to Rupert Graves (x)

Lestrade is hardly in the stories. Just really briefly. So I’d maybe ask ‘why didn’t you give a shit about him? Didn’t you care?’

What I like about Lestrade is his honesty. He is an honest copper, who generally tries. I think he finds life a bit difficult. He is not over-equipped in there (points to his head). But he has integrity and honesty and has heart. And what I really like is the lines Mark and Steven give me to say. In Hounds, he was rubbish undercover. Wearing those shades inside the pub.

I really hate my shoes. They’re grey, turn up at the front like mad pixie shoes. I do wish he was a bit brighter. That’s all, but I quite like him really.
