I first saw Eddie Marsan on “Ray Donovan”. He’s quickly becoming one of my favorite actors.

In a 2018 interview with The Scotsman, he said: “I thought, the Americans think I can do anything, and the British see me as a thief with two lines. So that’s why I don’t work much in the UK.”

He’s now narrated this two-part documentary about Broadmoor for ITV, though.

It, too, is about diversity and inclusivity, about the need to create a more compassionate world, in which children don’t suffer. That’s not the whole story. I know. But do watch it, please.

ITV also got Eddie Marsan to play John Darwin in its four-part series “The Thief, His Wife and The Canoe” (2022). The story is a little depressing, but this series is brimming with brilliant acting, from everyone involved.
