Although there's an inherent light-heartedness to 'Sherlock,' I slightly err towards not doing the comedy.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
'Sherlock' is beautifully done, if I may say so myself. Even if I wasn't in it, I would like the show.
My style of comedy is very real and bittersweet, and sort of always on the verge of kind of being tragic.
Comedy can be a little brutal, but not in a satisfying way.
I think that comedy is one of the more serious things that you can do in our day, especially in the world that we're living in.
I am a passionate believer that comedy is a way of tackling some of the most dark and difficult aspects of being a human being.
Even in the depths of dreadful situations, there's usually something rather comic, or something you can laugh about afterwards, at least. So, I do look for the comedy in those things.
Light, trivial comedy does not appeal - it is not something I go to see.
There's obviously a lot of tragedy in comedy; I really enjoy the paradox of what a really good comedy is.
'Sherlock' is one of the biggest things I will do, ever - we could never have predicted that level of insanity around the series.
I'll always do 'Sherlock' - it's something I'm not going to give up on.
