LESLEY MANVILLE on her character Susan Ryeland in Magpie Murders:
“She’s an Independent, spirited woman who lives by her own rules. She’s fabulous! I really like her as a person. She’s not done what most people would have expected a woman like her to have done. Emily Maitlis [the BBC newscaster] kept coming into my mind when I thought about Susan. I remember seeing her one morning at the BBC wearing really high heels. It’s easy to imagine that these highly intelligent women with important jobs don’t worry about clothes. So I have channelled Emily, and I hope she’s pleased!”
MAGPIE MURDERS streaming exclusively on BritBox from 10th February 2022
“This morning you said that if Jan did go to live with Gregor, that I wouldn’t visit anymore, that I wouldn’t want to visit anymore, but I… I don’t just visit for Jan.”
“Yes, I’ve noticed that you have a particular fondness for my tea.”
