Don’t look for a through-line in Lesley Manville’s Oscar-nominated career. There isn’t any.
“What gets me up in the morning is that I can play Susan Ryeland and then I can play Princess Margaret and then I can play Ada Harris and they’re all different ends of the social spectrum,” she says. “I get excited when it’s a character or type of character that I’ve not really played before.”
“If you have a talent such as Lesley, you do not leave her until Episode 4,” Horowitz says. Rather than set it in two time zones, two worlds and two eras , he starts with Ryeland and works through Atticus Pund, the character the writer created, to solve the crime. What Manville loved about Ryeland is her independence. “She doesn’t have to explain herself,” she says. “She’s chosen not to get married. She’s chosen not to have children….and she still drives an open-top sports car. She’s absolutely not conforming to anything. It was just wonderful playing the scenes when she just kind of cuts these men off absolutely brilliantly with her language and her skills.
