I wish she'd asked more about Speaking in Tongues. If you've tried so hard to get John Simm on your show, wouldn't you try to ask him more than the usual questions that he's probably been asked a million times before?
John Simm rocks my favourite actor ever!!!! i liked life on mars and doctor who but i would have to say than he was the best for me in state of play, he definetly isnt a snob and he is super cute for any 12 year old girl like me but i will be looking foward to anything new he brings. I'm glad he cares about what the scripts are like it is really important and writing scripts is something i'm intrested in doing when i am older andway in short John Simn you are the best thing since sliced breadxxx
John, you're not a snob just 'cause you look for the best scripts! More actors should do that, and that's why you are a favorite of mine. Keep doing what you're doing! :P
Im surprised his little boy isnt scarred from seeing his dad be someone as brilliantly insane as the Master. I was blown away on Christmas by how good and convincing he was as well as scared out of my mind. I would be scarred if my dad played the Master that well.
From what I've seen, John Simm actually is a brilliant actor. There's no point in trying to argue that. :p
Just look at his roles, they're all different characters and you can actually tell that they are. Unlike with some other actors, where you recognize the same manner of acting over and over again, that's not at all the case with Simm. You've got completely different personalities and mannerisms. And it's all completely believable - have you seen Sam Tyler under the influence of fever in LoM?
Love JS, so very glad the play is having a good run - I'll be seeing it in a month's time!!! More of a praise-fest than an interview - not that I mind a whit! :)
And I'm a self confessed Whovian (hard core - classic and new), and need it be said, my opinion of LOM? Whilst I didn't watch it in one (!) sitting - I do have the boxed DVD set, and revisit often
Everyone's entitled to their opinion m8, but yours is not based on the clear facts he's a brilliant performer. Not to your taste, move on, don't disrespect...
Frankly, it's not up to me to convince you. People have different tastes, and if he's not to your likely, I'm more than willing to agree to disagree. I feel his body of work speaks for itself, where with every nuance of facial expression, eyes, voice and body language he conveys what his character is feeling.He morphs into the character and even when unsympathetic, you understand what that person is going through.
No,most actors don't hit the mark as consistently as this performer, neither do they portray the range of complex emotions and venues.
Again, you really don't have to agree, at all. I for one do not dole out accolades will-nilly. His body of work resonates with me. His performances are deep and thought provoking.Clearly we're measuring basic performance levels on a different scale, 'cos most performers do not make the mark. Many do, and they are the ones we should and do take notice of.
@terminegger: I think many here would disagree with you. Every time he plays a different role, his body language changes, his expression changes, his voice and tone change. Many people can say lines convincingly. But to adapt a different body language, to adapt different expressions and make your audience understand? That's never easy. Simm does it well and consistently, which is what makes him stand out.
i want John back on doctor who, it would be interesting to see John act against Matt.

@relientk58 remember this interview was before christmas so he hadnt seen the most insane part of the master yet.
nigelharman18 1 year ago
And the Master's insanity is wholely different from Sam Tyler's. There's no such thing as saying "hey, I've seen that somewhere before!".
Well, just saying. ;) I don't mind if someone disagrees, but I can't just walk by without saying a word when someone's dissing very decent acting. *g*

All which is what is expected of actors at the most basic levels.
