Charles Dance: Plumbing fixed the hole in my finances

April 14 2019,  The Sunday Times

Charles Dance is one of Britain’s best-known actors. He made his name playing Guy Perron in ITV’s 1984 series The Jewel in the Crown, about the last days of the British Raj, and gained a new generation of fans in 2011, playing the brutal feudal lord Tywin Lannister in HBO’s Game of Thrones.

He could be even better known. Having already played a Bond baddie in 1981’s For Your Eyes Only, opposite Roger Moore, he was invited to audition for the part of James Bond himself when Timothy Dalton retired from the role, but turned down the opportunity.

Dance tries to follow the ominous motto of his Game of Thrones character, “a Lannister always pays his debts”, and is not a fan of owing money.…

 Charles Dance: I’d like Tyrion to end up on the Iron Throne
Friday, April 19, 2019 -

Charles Dance has thrown his support behind Tyrion Lannister to emerge as king of Westeros.
The veteran actor, 72, played Tywin Lannister in Game Of Thrones but was killed off by the HBO series’ showrunners at the end of season four.
Dance, who will debut as Lord Louis Mountbatten in the third series of Netflix’s The Crown, said he hoped the eighth and final chapter would end with the diminutive character atop the Iron Throne.
Asked who he thought would secure the crown, he replied: “I have no idea. They’ve been very good, all of them, nobody is dropping any hints, at all.
“If you ask me personally who I would like to see, I would love to see little Tyrion sitting on the throne.
“Because he’s such a wonderful character and Peter Dinklage is one of the most delightful people you could ever meet.”
Dance plays Martin Benson in The Widow, the godfather of Kate Beckinsale’s lead protagonist Georgia Wells.
But it is a rare turn as a good character in a career dominated by steely politicians and cold-hearted villains.
He said: “I’ve tried to bring the changes as much as I can, but if you’re seen to be doing something reasonably well, odds are you’ll be asked to do it again.
“As long as the characters are three dimensional, villains tend to be more fun.
“But yeah, it’s certainly nice to be asked to do something that isn’t particularly villainous.”
He added that Game Of Thrones fans often asked him for selfies, with some demanding he recite his on-screen clan’s famous phrase ‘The Lannisters always pay their debts’ on camera.

The Widow continues Mondays and Tuesdays, 9pm on ITV

though Coster-Waldau did admit to being jealous of his on-screen father Charles Dance's demise, back in the fifth season.

"I just love Tywin's death. I think there's something very poetic about taking a dump and being shot! I think that is a beautiful death.
"It's also beautiful because Charles Dance is such a great actor. His look. It was like, 'What the... You're not going to shoot me while I'm sitting on a toilet, you little piece of shit.' And then he goes. I love that."

“They are such a lovely cast,” she says. “But Charles Dance who plays Tywin Lannister is my white whale. I have tried to meet him a few times but it hasn’t happened.”

Folk singers Stu and Debbie Hanna

Since then the pair, who live in Melbourn, have found considerable success with their laid back songs filled with northern humour. As well as being nominated for the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards four times, they are also double winners of the Spiral Earth Awards.

Stu says: “It’s nice to be nominated because it gets the word out about what you do to more people and the award bashes are quite fun. You get to meet random people at them – I remember Debs once stole Charles Dance’s wine at one of them. It was a year when it was really snowy that a lot of Scots and Irish come to the folk awards and they couldn’t get there, so there was loads of excess booze. We were on a table next to Charles Dance and we were on a mission to have plenty of wine, so Debs took his when he wasn’t watching. He was very good about it – he seemed a lot nicer than he is in Game of Thrones!”

‘An ordinary civilian in these circumstances just wouldn’t survive,’ says Charles Dance, who plays Martin.

‘But because of his military training, Martin knows what they are going into.
‘Martin has been a surrogate father to Georgia since her dad died.
‘He also feels very guilty about a decision he made that affected her life.’
