Lastly, he also recalls how BBC played an important role in making the show what it is today. He says that the whole success was “unexpected” as the success was gradual instead of overnight.
“Then people love gangsters don’t they, because gangsters live this cold outside life, our own moral code, and it is quite unique and beguiling and intriguing,” said the actor while talking about the show’s popularity.
