Three dimensional characters, a family unit under stress, with a tragedy at the heart – all brilliantly framed in the thriller genre. I'm always looking for parts I may not have played before and Ed is a person in extremis, trying to do what's best. Failing and succeeding in equal measure. It's great to play a character so buffeted by events."
