Robson Green - the cheeky Geordie, the housewife’s favourite pin-up actor, the hugely successful singer - is something of a national treasure.

Best known for his roles in Casualty, Soldier, Soldier and Reckless, Robson is used to dramas which demand his being the main man rather than dramas such as Trust, in which he is one of several lead characters.

"I honestly never think of myself as a lead", confesses Robson. "I think of myself as an actor in a very good story, and the same applies to Trust. The script was excellent; as soon as I got it I just thought that the visual grammar was wonderful. I thought the words were divine and knew it was something I wanted to do; something I wanted to be a part of, irrespective of what order my name came in the cast list."

The calibre of the acting talent in Trust also impressed Robson, but the atmosphere on set was far more entertaining than your average city law firm.

"It was just an absolute ball. We had no problem taking the fun we were having off camera and making sure that it was evident on camera too. Sarah’s so amusing and very easy to work with. Ian, Neil, Chewi and Eva were all vibrant and had incredibly witty energy. At the read-through I knew that it was going to be good. And on a tight filming schedule you need to have fun."
