Reviews

At the core of this book are the testimonies of actors themselves, rendered as lightly edited transcripts of semi-structured interviews. Each chapter focuses on a specific genre and features interviews with established actors from some of the most critically regarded and popular of contemporary UK drama series. * Stephen Lacey, University of South Wales, UK *
