I'm impressed

I am not a fan of too many actors but I’ve become impressed with James.
I just finished watching Grantchester on a DVD and was told at the DVD store about Happy Valley and War and Peace. Great variety of roles, a minister, a thug and a Prince. Best of luck to you James, you seem like such a sweetie in all your interviews.

I agree with the comment posted below concerning the above You Tube interview:

He is just what a young man ought to be: sensible, good humoured, lively; and I never saw such happy manners! -- so much ease, with such perfect good breeding! ;)

Thanks FearlessOneDay.

I think he was being given a Man of the Year award yesterday by Glamour Magazine, thus the interview. Good heavens, Man of the year!

Being Canadian I can't help myself and comment on his filming in Toronto.
All you Canadians in Toronto keep a look out.

And James - Toronto is in central Canada, not the United States. Sorry I couldn't help myself making a comment about that. I'm sure it was a slip of the tongue. 

I wonder if Flatliners is set in the U.S. but filmed in Canada? So Grantchester 3 is on! Then maybe Happy Valley 3 ?

That seems to be the case.

So Grantchester 3 is on!
Great to hear that
And as for Happy Valley, I read somewhere that they lady who wrote the script now wants to do the third series of Happy Valley and it will be more about Tommy.
Maybe he escapes. Who knows.

And as far as Flatliners goes: Why does he have to play an American????

I agree. Why can't he play a British American? Of course, James would see it as a challenge .....to learn an American accent.

I hope Tommy escapes from prison. Now that would be fun.

Would this be considered FIRST DEGREE OF SEPARATION FROM JAMES NORTON? Or No Degree of Separation?

I just saw a Poirot episode called "The Labours of Hercules"

In the cast:

Morven Christie (Amanda, James' love interest in Grantchester)
Tom Austen (Amanda's husband in Grantchester)
Eleanor Tomlinson (James' love interest in Death Comes to Pemberley)

I was half expecting James to make a cameo...I was even looking at the corpses.

Cute observation FearlessOneDay. Another thing I notice with those names is that they are all of Celtic background including possibly Norton.

Morven - Celtic
Austen - Celtic
Tomlinson - Celtic
Norton - possibly Celtic
