Actors - can't live with 'em...
The musings of Doctors Series Producer Peter Lloyd on the perils of finding the best actor for the role.
Actors are great. Loopy sometimes, infuriating at others and some are absolutely ghastly - not on this show though, they simply wouldn’t survive. But on the whole, actors are great. They can transform a character into something utterly compelling, bring something wonderful to what was once a rather dull scene and create the most profound moment that it makes you cry.
There is a kind of magic to it, which is why actors can be so bewitching.
Or they can be terrible.
Reduce a great story to pedestrian mawkishness. Look so amateur, the audience feels uncomfortable. Or simply lose any sense of realism, by which time the viewers are reaching for the remote.
So casting is crucial and we have probably the most hard working casting department in the kingdom. Like every department on this show, there really aren’t enough of them, they work like fury and help us to employ at least 800 actors a year.
Producers and directors cast their own ‘guest’ actors, whilst Mike and I oversee ‘semi regs’ (ie those actors who appear on and off across different weeks). But for new Regulars, we go to auditions ourselves and meet them.

Given the latest adaptation of Nancy Mitford’s novel The Pursuit of Love starring Lily James is coming to Amazon on July 30, I thought it was high time to do a full review of the previous adaptation, Love in a Cold Climate (2001). Starring Rosamund Pike and Elisabeth Dermot Walsh, the 2001 BBC miniseries combines The Pursuit of Love with its sequel, Love in a Cold Climate to tell the story of three minor aristocratic women’s love lives in 1930s England. I’ve raved about thisseries before, but having just rewatched it, I need to rave again — THIS IS SO GOOD!!
First, we need to talk Mitfords, because if you aren’t familiar, get ready to get interested. The real Nancy Mitford and her sisters had a very eccentric childhood, and they grew up to be gorgeous, stylish, and sometimes scandalous in the 1930s and beyond: Nancy was a novelist/biographer and socialite; Diana was a socialite and fascist; Unity became a devotee of Hitler; Jessica moved to the US where she became an author and communist; and Deborah became the 10th Duchess of Devonshire. The novels are semi-autobiographical and they are witty, sparkling, and highly entertaining. There’s a number of biographies written about the sisters; I can recommend
