Grantchester

Season 7 "Grantchester." Testament to everyone that makes it, I've never done a season 7 of anything. Never crossed my mind when I started this show that we'd ever get to a season 7 and here we are, and it's still as enjoyable as ever. Working on "Grantchester" is the best job I've ever worked on. The best thing I've ever done in my life. I cannot think of a bad day on this series. I wake up and enjoy waking up and look forward to coming on the set of "Grantchester." It's the biggest gift for me. I think Leonard has gone through such a huge change, and it's an honor to play him. Over the years, it's fantastic to develop her as a character. We all get on very well, it's a fantastic team from the very top of the execs downwards to Robson leading the way. The first day Robson comes in he's literally like, "Welcome, like this is gonna be fun, you are gonna love it." And getting that welcome, I remember it so vividly because I thought, oh great, like that's it, this is gonna be good. It's a fantastic thing to be able to come back to again and again for my own six years now, it's wonderful to be a part of. The love and the fun and the nurturing of actors on set is gorgeous. And I just thank my lucky stars that I get to be part of it because it's wonderful. It's very rare to work on a show where you think right from the beginning, we've really got something here. I remember the first time I read the first book, it felt like characters I wanted to be with, the world I wanted to be in. And then we came on a sort of visit to Grantchester and we cycled across the meadows and we kind of came to the church and looked around, and it was just, it felt perfect in a way. It felt like it was all there waiting for us to explore. It is still as joyous and wondrous and beautiful today as it was when I first started all those years back. (upbeat music)
