INTERVIEWS:
Hadley Fraser: “I span the genres. I cycle, I cook, I grow things, I read. And then I sit in front of the telly like most of us and pretend I’m a Welsh rugby player, or a mafia boss or Ned Stark for an hour or two.”
Adam Linstead: “The Bishop shows human compassion that Valjean has long since forgotten. He covers up the theft of the Silver and gives him the Candlesticks. In doing this The Bishop saves Valjean’s soul from darkness and gives it to God. This triggers Valjean’s spiritual crisis.”
