It’s good. Today is the first day and it’s always strange the first day because you’re kind of trying to invent the thing as you go along. Famously, when you do audio recordings, by the end you’re very fluent and quite often you want to go back to the beginning and re-do some of the takes because you just know who you are and also what your relations are with the other characters.

I haven’t worked with Richard before but we’ve known each other for quite a few years now and we like each other. I also know Sophie who plays Alison, and Derek who plays the Master, so it’s quite cosy in the studio.
