'Peter loses himself in role'

[ithildin]

You might think you'd be hard-pressed to find a link between handsome Holby City star Peter Wingfield and foul-mouthed rapper Eminem, but there is one.

The actor, currently starring in the BBC One medical drama, has revealed how he uses music in his craft.

He says: "I use music to focus my mood, particularly doing Holby, I use it to keep the energy up, because the character is just so full-on all the time."

Asked whether he associates songs with particular roles, he says: "Absolutely! I have songs that as soon as I hear them, I'm back to a place where I was filming a particular show, movie, series, or whatever.

The rest here.

Hmm. I don't know what movie he is talking about where he lived in a cave for 20 years. Do you?

In 'The Last Sin Eater', his character lived in a cave.

Thanks! I had heard about that one but hadn't seen it. Hope it comes out on cable soon.

You're welcome :) You'd think it would show up on TV eventually. I should rewatch it before I go to Philly, and get Nin to watch, since she hasn't yet.
