Philip Winchester about working with Charles

Strike back  season 2 blu- ray release this week

 

IGN: You mentioned the great guest stars you guys get. But you guys hardly ever get any scenes with them. Especially if they're a villain. You had Charles Dance in every episode last year and I don't think you ever met.

Winchester: [laughs] Exactly. We didn't even get to kill him in the end. That was the last we saw of him. We had this quick little scene in Johannesburg where he gets attacked by civilians on the street and I remember that we had this crazy day shooting in these underground mines and we were running out of light. And we literally had a half an hour to shoot this grand finale scene for the show. And that was the half an hour that I got to work with Charles Dance. [laughs] It was just thirty minutes before the sun went down on a Friday and then we were done. We got on a plane and headed back for post-production. That was it. That was my time with Tywin Lannister.

star Charles Dance as Conrad Knox, a millionaire who dreams of making Africa into a world power through some stolen nuclear weapons. Knox is no Tywin Lannister, but Dance brings a sense of menace to the part as well as Knox’s misguided love for his adoptive continent. It’s telling when Knox openly declares himself to be African, but some of the indigenous people actually laugh in his face when he makes that claim

Lena Headey about Charles

The Game of Thrones cast also features Charles Dance, who plays her father, Lord Tywin Lannister. Headey described Dance as “awesome”.

“He’s such a force,” she added. “He’s so brilliant and he doesn’t miss a f***ing line. He just stares at you and comes out with it, and you’re like errrgh! And then you have to step up. I love that. He just commands combat.”
