In this episode, Archie Pearman speaks to David Rintoul. David is an actor with a wealth of appearances on the stage, screen and in audio. He has worked extensively with the Royal National Theatre and Royal Shakespeare Company, and his TV credits include Doctor Finlay, Pride and Prejudice (1980), and Game of Thrones. His film work includes the title role in Legend of the Werewolf (1975), Is Anybody There? (2008), and The Ghost Writer with Pierce Brosnan and Ewan McGregor.
