The actor said of the series while speaking on the Off Menu podcast with James Acaster and Ed Gamble: "I'm playing a journalist who sort of broke the case open, and there's just a lot of quite technical stuff.

He added: "That was quite a long shoot and that was very intense. But you then do something like that and you're very proud to be part of something like that, it's one of the stories of our time that needs telling."
